ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Joe Pannone, affectionately known as Joey Pinz from his days on the golf course, embodies the essence of discipline in every facet of his remarkable life. Raised in the northeastern U.S. as the son of immigrants, Joe's childhood curiosity evolved into a disciplined approach to question-based learning, a method that has underpinned his journey through life. From shedding over 135 pounds and establishing a successful business that has thrived for over 25 years, to self-teaching computer languages in the dawn of the digital age and earning a pilot's license in his mid-40s, Joe's story is one of relentless determination and disciplined focus. His achievements span the gamut of human endeavor: maintaining a single-digit golf handicap, completing multiple triathlons, and embarking on an adventurous solo trip from NYC to Italy at the tender age of 10. Joe's resilience and disciplined approach were also crucial in the face of personal loss, leading him to comfort his family and start a foundation in memory of his sister. However, amidst these diverse and impressive accomplishments, Joe cites fatherhood as his most profound and proudest achievement. Being a dedicated father to two beautiful and smart daughters stands at the pinnacle of his life's work. This role has not only been a source of immense joy but has also deepened his understanding and application of discipline in nurturing, guiding, and learning from his children. Joe openly acknowledges areas where he seeks to grow and apply more discipline, including philanthropy, financial management, and fostering deeper connections with his extended and European family. His commitment to improvement extends to fitness, community development, and cultivating a more generous spirit towards charity, demonstrating a lifelong commitment to growth and betterment. Beyond the triumphs and trials, Joe's journey is a testament to the power of discipline as a transformative force. His story is not merely about personal success but about the impactful role of a disciplined life in bettering oneself and contributing positively to the world around us. Through his candid sharing, Joe hopes to inspire others to embrace discipline, confront challenges with resilience, and pursue continuous personal and societal improvement. Among these lessons, he cherishes the journey of fatherhood as the most enriching and rewarding experience of his life, celebrating the beauty and intelligence of his daughters as his crowning accomplishment.
