A powerful, but challenging to obtain attribute is self-discipline.
What is self-discipline? This is the ability to do what it takes to overcome any obstacles to reach your goals. You need to do this even when it is inconvenient or uncomfortable. You may have to say “no” to doing things you like, and saying “yes” to doing things that you hate. It becomes easier to stand up for yourself when you have self-discipline.
Many people want to be more self-disciplined but they won’t take the action needed to acquire it.
Take control of your success
There are many things in your life that can hold you back from being successful.
Some are external and there isn’t much you can do about those. But the ones that do the most damage are the internal ones.
Your self-talk and limiting beliefs are the two main things that can hold you back.
You can try to fix these by yourself or you can work with a Life Coach.
This short video talks to these points and offers you a solution.

You start your day having good intentions but as challenges, stress and distractions arise you veer off course. You can put some strategies in-place that can help you to become a master of self-discipline to keep you on task.
Commit to the cause. You may be undisciplined but are you truly unhappy? Do you really want to improve this situation? People claim that they want to be more self-disciplined but truthfully, they really don’t mind being the way they are now.
- You have to be honest with yourself. This may take a bit of time and effort to improve but it can be done if you definitely want it.
- You succeed by staying committed to the cause
Write it all down. You clarify your thoughts when you write down your ideas and goals. Your mind can now come up with an action plan that you can stay with.
- Look at all areas that you want to improve. This can be your finances, relationships, your carer or anything else in your life. Include the changes you want to make and what you believe is the best method to make those changes happen.
Get help from others. You have committed to make a change in your life, which is great, but don’t keep it a secret. Boost your self-discipline by telling other people about it.
- In the beginning if you weren’t more self-disciplined, don’t be ashamed about it. You are taking positive action now, which is important. You will be supported and those you love will be there to celebrate your successes.
- Getting back on track when you have a bad day will also be easier with your support group.
You have to believe in yourself. When you have faith in your ability to master self-discipline, you can do anything. You will have good and bad days, but you will be successful if you remain focused and committed to strengthening your own self-discipline.
- Focus on the big picture and concentrate on, how when you stay committed, your body, mind and your energy will change for the better.
People who are self-disciplined are admired by many people. People that are self-disciplined can stay on schedule and never seem to lose their focus on the things that they want to accomplish. They make good, wise decisions and take the needed action to achieve their goals with ease.
When you do these actions daily, they become habits. If you want it, self-discipline can become your new way of life.
