Self-Discipline

It said that 95% of the results come from the activities you do every day (habit). What do repeatedly will create habit in ourselves and automatically records in the sub-conscious mind. For example, you get up in the morning, take bath and watch TV, or read book. There are good habit and bad habit happens in every action we do every day. There is one most important formula which can help you build a ton of good habits and success in your life, called “Self-Discipline”.

According to Brian Tracy, Self-Discipline refers to the ability to do what you should do, when you should do it, whether you like it or not. We human will definitely do something we like to do; however, we may delay to do what we don’t like. Self-discipline helps to develop the grow mindset of doing what we don’t like, but important to do. For instance, we may choose to watch TV or play PUBG, in stead of cleaning the room although our room looks messy and smell bad.

How to develop self-discipline? It is really hard to thing to do, but worth try because the good habit is hard to build, but easy to live with. Start from the small thing like setting the a few goals of the day and prioritize which one you should do it. Once you determine the first thing, start doing it until you finish it no matter what it take. Second, start to say no to bad habits like when “playing game or watch TV” comes in your mind, learn to reject and say “let me finish my task first”.

Self-discipline is something you need to practice everyday because there is evil and angel on our both shoulders. If we let evil win, we will end up staying with bad habits, which not contribute to the ultimate goals.
