You do not need a reason to chase pleasure and avoid pain. It's biologically natural, involuntary, and self-justifying. You moved away from pain and toward pleasure before you could think.

Discipline is different.

Discipline is voluntary. You must choose it. If you don't, it won't be part of your life. Discipline needs a purpose, a reason to exist. You must select that purpose in your life and put discipline behind it.

It can serve any purpose. Nothing is off-limits, but it must serve some purpose. You will not be disciplined if you don't give yourself a reason to be disciplined. It's as simple as that.
