You don’t have to disappear to become the person you want to be. There’s a growing trend online telling us to “lock in,” disappear for six months, cut everyone off, stop posting, and come back completely unrecognizable. And while taking time away can be useful, I don’t think disappearing is the ultimate proof of discipline. If you have to remove every possible distraction before you can focus, perhaps the bigger thing to work on is your discipline. Because real focus isn’t the absence of distraction. It’s the ability to remain focused in the presence of it. You will always have people around you. You will always have social media, notifications, opportunities, relationships, noise, and things competing for your attention. At some point, you have to learn how to pursue what matters to you without needing to completely remove yourself from the world. Maybe you don’t need to disappear. Maybe you need to learn how to stay and still get the work done. In this video, I’m sharing my thoughts on the “disappear and come back unrecognizable” mentality, discipline, focus, distraction, and tips to help you stay locked in the presence of all the noise and distractions. If you’ve ever felt like you need to completely disappear before you can make progress, this one is for you. #Discipline #SelfImprovement #Focus #PersonalGrowth #LockIn
