The Art of Self-Discipline

Self-discipline has had a bad rap over the years. Most people think of self-discipline as a punishment. I too thought this way until one day I started to take responsibility for the things in my life that weren’t going as I would like them to and made a change. We live in a society where anything you want you can have at your fingertips at a moment’s notice. With the click of a button, you can have your food delivered to your doorstep. Technology has made things so easy and effortless that we are losing our ability to handle difficult tasks and work hard. The thing with self-discipline is that once you have even a little bit of it you don’t want to let it go. You see how doing hard things now actually makes your life easier in the long run. When you look at anyone that has achieved massive success you will find that it was their ability to stay disciplined and persistent that allowed them to get where they are.
