[2:30] “It came about…because about 10 years ago I was finishing up my career in the fitness industry, and I was starting another business, helping entrepreneurs be more productive. And some of my friends would be like, ‘Man, how do you get so much done?’… And they first started calling me the most productive person. Then that just kind of morphed into the most disciplined, because in order to be productive, you really have to have discipline.” Craig Ballantyne’s journey began as a fitness coach, where his intense structure and repeatable routines laid the foundation for his later success as an entrepreneur and author. His book, The Perfect Day Formula, outlines the core of his philosophy: that sustainable habits, not fleeting motivation, drive lasting success. Craig has a reputation for extreme consistency. He is known for waking at 4 a.m., sticking to strict routines, and following a minimalist daily structure that eliminates decision fatigue.

But anybody can build the systems around themselves to be successful.” The trick, Craig asserts, is not adjusting your life to fit his productivity principles and systems. Instead, you adjust the systems to fit your life. For example, he frequently shares the idea of “attacking your morning” with his audience. Some may interpret this as a call to wake up earlier, however, Craig recognizes that many people are night owls. So it’s less important when people wake up, and more important that whatever time they wake up, they make use of that time. If you’re wondering how to be a disciplined person, it starts with designing a routine that eliminates distractions and gives your best hours to your highest p
