The Power of Self Discipline

Discipline is hard work.It delivers benefits far beyond what you see on the surface.It is built by consistently performing small acts of courage.Another aspect of discipline is "self-control."Self-control is something everyone can relate to and when you master it, you gain strength and power.It will provide you with mental reserves required to persevere when life throws you one of its little curves.

One angle I like to look at self-discipline, can certainly be helpful: self-discipline is the power to act on ideas. It is the ability to take things from thoughts and realize them through actions and results. It is one of the pillars of success and power. It endows the inner strength to focus all the energy on a goal and persevere until it is accomplished. One of the most simple and effective methods to develop self-discipline is by refusing to satisfy unimportant and unnecessary desires.

Developing Self Discipline, here are a few examples:

• Resist taking your bike for couple of days, where often u take it.
• Walk up and down the stairs instead of taking the lift.
• Get down from the bus one station before or after your destination, and walk the rest of the way.
• For a week go to sleep one hour earlier than usual.
• Sometimes resist the desire to eat an ice cream.

While you are gaining strength and confidence through your dedication to discipline, others will be noticing your specialness. You will be different. You will be stronger. You will be better.
