I’m excited to announce that I’ll be holding my first online workshop on April 2nd! This project has been in the mental pipeline for about six months but it’s now in the final design stages and ready for launch.
My Freedom Through Discipline workshop will be the first in the Radical Growth for Radical People workshop series. Each installment in the series is designed to help extremists embark on their own unique hero’s journeys (or pick themselves back up if they’ve stumbled) to achieve greater awesomeness and effectiveness.
Here’s a little introduction to the topic matter. You’ll find all the details—when, where, how to register—below.
Be honest. Does this look familiar?
In this workshop, we'll explore the path to freedom, starting with the very first steps. We'll look at how discipline (or self-responsibility) brings inner freedom. From there, we'll expand out to consider how our own practice of discipline, and the inner freedom we gain as a result, can light the way to freedom in our families, communities, and beyond.
We'll talk about how to jumpstart a disciplined lifestyle that can support massive personal growth, leading to inner freedom in your life. The first step is habits, and we'll discuss the logistics of habit formation in detail so that you can begin transforming your life today, even if you're overwhelmed, easily distracted, or just don't know where to start.
Who is it for?
This workshop is designed for people who already accept the premise of self-ownership and understand the non-aggression principle, but who may struggle with growth and impact in their day-to-day lives.
You’ll get a lot out of this workshop if:
You have great ideas, but your weasel brain won’t let you act on them
You’re always starting projects, only to lose steam
You feel overwhelmed constantly
You don’t know where the time goes
You deeply want to use the talents and resources at your disposal to push the societal needle toward freedom, but don’t know where to start
Even if you’ve already achieved discipline in one or more areas of your life, but want to level up in other areas, Freedom Through Responsibility can help you. If you want to take the concept of self-responsibility to its limit, bringing freedom and prosperity to yourself, your loved ones, and your community, this is for you.
What will I learn?
How a voluntary society can only be achieved through YOUR personal growth and attainment of discipline.
The ways you talk yourself out of personal growth, and how to stop
The three foundational growth habits that will transform your life
Three self-defeating habits that may be holding you back (some of them might surprise you!)
The five tools that will help you cultivate better discipline, even if you’re overwhelmed, lazy, or easily distracted
Strategies for battling resistance
The Freedom Through Discipline workshop will contain a fun mixture of content presentation (memes included), discussion, and opportunities for interaction with other participants. Bring a notebook and pen if you want to take notes. Otherwise, just sit back and enjoy the discussion.
When is the workshop?
Sunday, April 2nd, 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM (Eastern)
How much?
The cost is $50 and includes a video recording of the live workshop.
Also, we’re helping out my friend Kevin!
Half the ticket proceeds (after Eventbrite fees) will go to support my friend Kevin Butler as he recovers from an extended illness. Kevin is an intrepid voluntaryist, self-discipline enthusiast, one of the great thinkers of our day, and a good friend.
Even if you can’t/don’t want to attend the workshop, please consider dropping a few FRNs in Kevin’s GoFundMe.
