I'm trying to break the code on willpower so I can start tasks I don't want to do like leg day and writing. Is there anything I haven't tried that I could try? So far none of this has helped

Or.... Just start doing things you don't want to do. This is how you build discipline.
This is included in the
>Goggins/Jocko style "JUST DO IT" No thoughts.
I've sat there for hours. Just saying in my head. "Just do it". Get up and start. Nothing else works but starting right now. Who's gonna carry the boats... Shit don't work. Body physically won't move.
Great movie

Yeah no thanks. No meds for me
There's one tool that you haven't tried. The most powerful of all that any therapists will try to get you to do.
It's called
.meht htiw tnemtimmoc a gniriuqca dna efil laer ni elpoep rehto htiw slaog ruoy gnirahS
Read Steve Pavlina's article on 30 day challenges (free). If you want all that stuff to work and you tried an easy 30 day challenge and still couldn't do it, you probably need medication
Thanks. I will try it
Try meth
People with adhd will do anything but go to the fricking doctor and get the help they need.. gesus
Too many serious side effects with meds. I know from friends and family
fix your diet
butter
meat
if you dont want to write then dont
if you dont want to squat then you are fricking pussy and should absolutely squat
do it every other day so you dont weird out when you have to squat once in a week or some shit.
literally squat is the foundation of everything
apetite
good sleep
proper hormonal function
muscle growth
etc etc.
literally build your life around squat
the better you can recover for squats the better your life will be
not recovering? identify what is the problem and fix it? not enough sleep -> bad recovery -> fix sleep -> better recovery -> better squat -> better life. not eating enough? same thing.
not training enough? same thing
training too much? same thing.
When you get the graps of things aka. squats life becomes suddenly easy mode.

It's very simple. You start doing one simple task every morning, religiously. It doesn't really matter what it is, as long as it's something you're not already doing. For example, I started by unloading the dishwasher every morning. Once you find that you do this task automatically, effortlessly and without thinking about it, choose a new task to stack until it has become a habit. Repeat this ad infinitum.
At a certain point I guess you just have to accept you're in the middle of the bell curve and your life is going nowhere.
Perhaps consider the angle that you're not only letting yourself down but you're also letting God down, and you'll probably get exactly what you deserve from it.
Why would God do this to me? You see I've done everything in my power to get better but he gives me nothing. No progress. Nothing positive. I pray and God is silent
That's what Cain thought. It isn't true. You can do more.
Self respect is the origin of self discipline which is what willpower is.
Some israelite stole that from a Greek who said it first.
But the idea is true nonetheless.
Respect yourself, do things that build respect for yourself, and your willpower will increase.
Don't try to implement more than 2 new habits a week. They don't tend to stick. Just focus on those one or two for 2 weeks until they're routine and add another after. You got 28 2-week blocks a year that's plenty of stuff to potentially add and engrain. Self improvement (for lack of a better term because /sig/ is cope) is not something that's easy to do in bursts.
