Self Discipline is the ability to motivate yourself and force yourself to do what you MUST do even if you don’t feel like doing it. It is self denial of temporary pleasures for a brighter tomorrow.
We are living in a world that is surrounded by temptations almost everywhere. We have the latest technology, TV,
computer games and all sort of reality shows, sports, etc that ensures us we never get bored. So people struggle to focus on their school work, their jobs or their relationships, businesses, etc because those things appear to be boring and demands our effort and concentration.
Yes those things might appear to be boring but in the long run you will experience great results that will impact your life in a positive way. You won’t succeed by just watching TV all the times or getting distracted by all sorts of technology. You succeed because you discipline yourself to Take Action towards achieving your goals. People who are not self disciplined allows themselves to be distracted by all sorts of things at the expense of their school work, relationships, weight loss and businesses.
Those things you sacrifice because of temporary pleasure are worth having in life. There are millions of people who are living mediocre lives because they lacked self discipline in the past. They went after pleasures that profited them nothing. When they were supposed to work out their marriages, they were busy going out with other women. When they were supposed to spend time with their children, they were busy fooling around with their mates. When they were supposed to work towards achieving their degrees, they were busy watching TV and surfing the Internet.
Truth is you will enjoy yourself when you go after these temporary pleasures but in the long run you will suffer. I am hear to teach you to have a greater tomorrow a successful tomorrow and self discipline is an important element of your success. When faced by such temptations, RESIST the temptations before you. Resist TV, Video games, sports, etc Force yourself to pursue your goals instead because those things really matter and will add value to your life.
Hey, don’t get me wrong. I am not saying you shouldn’t have fun, certainly not. I am saying, There Is Time For Everything. Many people know deep down in their hearts that it is wrong to be doing what they are doing, but because they lack discipline, they end up yielding to the temptations. They believe they are hooked to whatever they are doing. What a negative statement if you ask me.
Be careful in this day and age. Today’s society is tempting many to choose an easy way out from undertaking what seems to be difficult tasks. Self discipline is needed to overcome such temptations. Developing self discipline is just like any other skill in life. At first it will be hard, but the more you practice the stronger and easier it will become. You need it in this day and age to guard yourself from distractions. Self discipline will give you an enormous advantage.
