Today’s conversation is with Craig Ballantyne.

Craig is an entrepreneur, author of The Perfect Day Formula and The Discipline Manifesto and most recently The Dark Side of Discipline, and widely known as “The World’s Most Disciplined Man.”

We explore the fine line between discipline and dysfunction, how to identify when you’re applying effort to the wrong problems, and how to build sustainable systems that align with your identity. Craig shares tools like the Pyramid of Peak Performance, Effortless Discipline Systems, and his 4-step Unbreakable Standards framework for creating lasting change.

Expect to Learn:

  • How a throwaway comment led to Craig being branded “The World’s Most Disciplined Man”
  • Why living the book matters more than writing it
  • The signs that discipline is becoming dysfunctional or destructive
  • How to apply “Level 10 effort to Level 10 problems”
  • Why many high-performers are solving the wrong hard problems
  • The danger of perverse forms of procrastination
  • Why “action begets action” and the importance of early wins
  • What a truly effective morning routine includes (and what it doesn’t)
  • How personal rules and standards create real freedom
  • Craig’s 4-step system for creating Unbreakable Standards
  • The full Pyramid of Peak Performance framework
  • What “success loves speed” really means — and how to apply it
