There's an interesting part of this like habit equation, you could say, or like discipline equation, which is the why part. Which is like, why does this matter to you?

And is it important to get really clear on why this thing matters to you, whether it's the gym or... Because when I was playing around with this discipline equation idea for my last book, and the kind of conclusion I landed at was that to be disciplined, you have to understand... the reason why something matters to you. You can say that in other words.

Plus the psychological reinforcement you get from the pursuit of the thing, minus the, you could say, the psychological or perceived cost of the pursuit of the thing. So in the context of brushing your teeth, I think I know why it matters, right? Because if I don't, then I have to go to the dentist, my teeth fall out, I look ugly, whatever it might be. Is it rewarding and fun to do? No, not really.

and minus the cost of the pursuit it takes two minutes it's not that bad but when that nets out the y is stronger thankfully on net than the cost so the behavior happens yeah but the key part of this equation here is the y part like it's not the key part but it's a central part is the y part why does the thing matter to you yeah and and how much y like how big is the y yeah because if

I like it. A lot. Because I've been saying it, I wrote about this in my book, the whole idea is Y plus, like, you could say reinforcement, minus, you could say cost, just to simplify it.

But is there anything missing from this equation? Do you think? Is there anything... I said it to Simon Sinek and he went, let's try it out. And he talked to me about taking his bin out in the morning, like taking the bin out for the bin men. And it kind of holds up because he's... So the why is if I don't take the bin out, then I'm going to get fined and my bin isn't going to overflow.

Pretty strong motivator. The reinforcement, there's no reinforcement. Getting out of bed at 7 a.m. to take your bin out, it's not nice. The cost is also significant, getting out of bed. But the why still... So it's Y plus... You could say like Y plus the psychological reinforcement from the pursuit of doing it. So DJing. Really fun for me.

I'm very, very excited. But just to pause that, is there a link between menopause and bone density?
