To be more successful do 10 things for better discipline.

Discipline is at the foundation of any success story.?Cultivate great discipline, you will succeed in life.?Without discipline, we are lost and constantly searching for motivation to inspire action.

People with extraordinary discipline stay focused and refuse to let obstacles inhibit their progress.?They press on and do what’s required to succeed.

These people have little patience for the excuses that prevent most people from succeeding, because they understand the pain of personal improvement requires the power of discipline.

It’s troubling to see a generation of young people being indoctrinated in the rhetoric of limitation.??

Powerful movements have gained momentum that obviate personal responsibility in favor of empowering people with the “idea” their victims in a struggle of invisible adversaries.

As an individual we have a choice.?Buy into the intoxicating appeal of “theoretical ideas” that lack attestation and?concepts that create barriers predicated on imaginary antagonists. Or we can get busy being more disciplined and apprehend our destiny.

By letting others define what stands in our way, we are destined for failure.?By taking control of our own future, we dramatically improve the odds of success built on the back of discipline!

“Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.” – Jim Rohn

To be more successful do 10 things for better discipline:

Consistent

Disciplined people don’t give up and appreciate frustration and setbacks are inevitable.?They adapt and maneuver around impediments that prevent most people from moving forward.?Disciplined people build strong character in the face of adversity.?They are consistent in their commitment to achieving success.??

Effort????

Hard work and discipline go hand in hand.?Show me anyone that has achieved great success and they are willing to work harder than everyone else.?They put the hours required to achieve the results they desire.?They don’t look for short cuts, they concentrate on doing what’s demanded.

Wellbeing??

Disciplined people make health top priority.?Since age 15 health and fitness have been a daily priority and it has helped me create a rock-solid mind set.?It also gives me boundless energy and mental stamina.?Make health priority number one and you will develop better discipline.?

Mindset

Disciplined people don’t entertain the succulent sounds of easy alternatives.?They understand true success takes time and they remain positive despite the daily frustrations that coincide with building a dream.?They understand the power of optimism and refuse to let negative thoughts or negative people interfere with their progress.

Long term

Disciplined people appreciate the importance of being patient and take a long-term approach to building their dreams.?They don’t get seduced by fades or group dynamics.?They embrace the process and all the pain that makes success an arduous journey.?They have realistic expectations but never lose hope, even when temporary setbacks arise.

“We do today what they won’t, so tomorrow we can accomplish what they can’t.” – Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson

Flexible

Disciplined people remain open and flexible.??They don’t get married to ideas that lack efficacy because of emotional attachment.?They seek guidance and remain open to change if that enhances their prospects for success.?Being agile and flexible are attributes that set disciplined people apart.

Time matters

Disciplined people understand the importance of time and refuse to waste time on unimportant distractions.?They appreciate the importance of saying no and make time for what matters most.?They also aspire to create a definition of success that not only includes financial stability, but ownership of their time.?What good is success if you have no time to enjoy it?

Organize

Disciplined people are incredibly organized and have tremendous structure in the lives.?They get things done each day most people put off and refuse to let tiny details fall through the cracks.?They prioritize and understand the importance of being vigilant about “getting things done”.?Organized people experience less chaos and disciplined people understand the importance of systems that help them succeed.

Ownership

Disciplined people take full responsibility for their actions and avoid complainers that make excuses and constantly blame everything outside their control for their failures.?They know when to apologize when they "mess up" and stay focused on improving everything they can control, including healthy relationships.?They understand trust is at the foundation of every great connection personally and professionally.?They don’t dream up excuses when things go wrong.?They own their mistakes and place importance on quality relationships.???

Tenacious

Most people give up way too easily.?The minute things go bad, they give up.?Disciplined people don’t hang on to bad ideas, but they never let go of good ones, regardless of the skeptics.?They embrace being resourceful even if the people on Shark Tank say no.?They find a way to finance their dreams, even if they must do it themselves, which is what I did 36 years ago.?Tenacity and determination are second nature for disciplined people. ??

“We must all suffer one of two things:?the pain of discipline or the pain of regret and disappointment.” – Jim Rohn
