Without a doubt, the singular most important attribute needed to achieve ANY personal success, achievement or goal is 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟-𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞.
Self-discipline is:
✅ The ability to control one’s impulses, emotions, desires and behavior.
✅ The ability to turn down immediate pleasure and instant gratification in favor of gaining the long-term satisfaction and fulfillment from achieving higher and more meaningful goals.
✅ The ability to make the decisions, take the actions, and execute your game plan regardless of the obstacles, discomfort, or difficulties, that may come your way.
Being disciplined does not mean living a limiting or a restrictive lifestyle.
It also does not mean giving up everything you enjoy or to relinquish fun and relaxation.
It does mean learning how to focus your mind and energies on your goals and persevere until they are accomplished. It also means cultivating a mindset whereby you are ruled by your deliberate choices rather than by your emotions, bad habits, or the sway of others. ⠀
Self-discipline allows you to reach your goals in a reasonable time frame and to live a more orderly and satisfying life.
If you want to be a master of your own destiny, you must develop self-discipline and self-control.
The more self-discipline you have, the more self-control you will have, the easier the weight loss process (and life in general) gets!
