Comfort Kills, Discipline Builds: Tony Cortopassi on Breaking Patterns
Description
Episode 20 – Summary
This episode is Tony unfiltered. He cuts into the truth about discipline, the kind that doesn't wait for motivation or comfort. He draws a hard line between men who talk about change and men who live it. His message: comfort kills, habits define you, and leadership starts by embodying the standard you demand from others.
Tony doesn't waste time with theory — he brings it down to practice, repetition, and the grind of breaking patterns. His call is direct: stop hiding behind excuses, stop waiting for the right time, and step into action. Every word is a push against mediocrity and a pull toward becoming someone who lives with strength, presence, and purpose.
