Success-- The Key and the Fire

Written by Dianne Ronnow


Self-discipline is a powerful tool that can help you accomplish about anything you can dream or imagine. Self-discipline isrepparttar act of controlling our emotions, actions, thoughts, words and personal direction. Some people seem to be naturally self-controlled and some seem to have no self-control at all. Others seem to constantly struggle with self-discipline.

Discipline is learning to say “no” to our primitive uncontrolled cravings and selfish destructive desires. We develop self-management when we begin to distinguishrepparttar 137898 difference between what is actually needed and what is truly unnecessary.

Because ofrepparttar 137899 ease of modern society and our ability to get anything we want at a push of a button orrepparttar 137900 swipe of a card, it is far more difficult to exert self-control today than it has been in any other time in human history. Added to this isrepparttar 137901 brainwashing of advertising that tells us to crave things.

The first step to gaining self-control is to identifyrepparttar 137902 areas where we are out of control. Work on self-denial inrepparttar 137903 areas you want to change. Deny your self a certain pleasure each day. Then begin to start small with little victories each day, like eating one less snack or watching one less television show.

A key to discipline is developing routines. People who have routines tend to be more disciplined and accomplish more. If you are one of those people who have trouble with routines, try adding just one at a time. Keep it simple. Work onrepparttar 137904 things that are most important first. Evaluate yourself regularly to see how you are doing. Reward yourself for keeping at it. Once it becomes a habit, it is much easier to maintain.

Of course, routines can be done to excess, so remember to give yourself a little healthy leeway in caserepparttar 137905 unexpected comes up.

The power behind some ofrepparttar 137906 world’s greatest achievements is strong motivation andrepparttar 137907 ability to persist despite previous failures. Motivation isrepparttar 137908 fire that fuels our efforts toward success. There is no use in trying to master self-discipline if you have no motivation to have it. Motivation is a result of strong personal desire that directs a person’s actions and thoughts and helps create situations that move toward a specific accomplishment.
