I am an experimenter in the sense that I write in order to change myself. – Foucault, 1978
I’ve switched to entirely using “dedication” vs “discipline”, and it’s made a surprising difference to how I feel. Discipline feels hard, coercive, as if an outside force is making you act. Dedication, on the contrary, feels like a yearning, a pull from inside, rooted in desire.
