How to Become a More Disciplined Leader with John Gallagher

In my conversation with leadership expert John Gallagher, we explored something every leader needs to hear: the most effective leaders don’t wait for perfection—they build discipline. Discipline to show up. Discipline to act. Discipline to take the first step even when the path isn’t fully clear. Perfection is a myth that stalls progress. Discipline is the practice that builds momentum.

John shared that leadership starts with small, consistent behaviors—done well, done often. When we move with intention instead of hesitation, we build credibility with our teams and create the space for growth. If you're waiting until you “have it all figured out,” you’ll miss the opportunities discipline helps unlock.
