Discipline is overpriced. Incentives are underpriced.

New Year's resolutions have a reported ∼91% failure rate.

People who announce they're going to run a marathon for charity have an incredible success rate.

Why does this gap exist?

Incentives > Discipline.

The person announcing publicly they're going to run a marathon for charity puts the Tyler Durden gun behind their head.

The following forces act like a gun for the marathon runner:

• Desire to be consistent
• Sunk cost fallacy
• Social shame
• Being seen as a good person
• A cause bigger than themself

Discipline will almost always lose to incentives for good behaviour, and negative consequences for bad behaviour.

Thought experiment: If the reward for completing new years resolutions was a billion dollars, and the consequence for failing was the death penalty -- what % completion would New Years resolutions have?

If you make the reward and consequences big enough -- 100x will power is born.

There's few people in history more resourceful than a crack cocaine addict sourcing their next hit.

Here's some iconic Tyler Durden gun incentive schemes:

1. The Ticking Clock

Elon Musk proposed to George Hotz the following to build vision system for Tesla auto pilot:

$12 million payment if it was delivered the next day. For every month that passes where it's not delivered, the payment would be reduced by $1 million.

If you had an incentive scheme where dollars disappear like a ticking clock each minute, would you need discipline? Procrastination would not be possible.

2. The Tattoo

Mr. Beast and his friend was regularly skipping workouts so they created a bet:

If one of them skipped a workout -- they had to get a tattoo of the other person.

Guess how many workouts they skipped that year?

Zero.

Things that usually outperform discipline:

• Accountability
• Publicly announced deadlines (YC demo day is a great example of this)
• Bet money with friends on the activity
• Raise money for charity
• Coach to report into

Discipline is a candle flame. Incentives and consequences are a nuclear reactor.

Why rely solely on something that has an alleged 91% failure rate? You wouldn't do this for surgeons, condoms or airplanes.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again -- whilst expecting different results.

Raymond K Hessel doesn't need discipline.
