Build the habit to focus at will and discipline is less of an issue. I suppose focusing at will and doing what you think needs to be done is what discipline is.

On another note, one motivational trick I am applying nowadays with everything is to learn meta-skills like these in many different contexts (otherwise it won’t transfer).

Maybe it’s not another note. Maybe that’s the way how I stay motivated to focus at will for any given task.

It’s still early days. Also, I am doing this in conjunction with tackling my compulsion to go to YouTube.
