13、 and execute your game plan regardless of the obstacles, discomfort, or difficulties that may come your way.

14、arning how to focus your mind and energies on your goals and persevere until they are accomplished.

15、a reasonable time frame and to live a more orderly and satisfying life. D) How to develop self-discipline? Start with baby steps. No process takes place overnight.

16、u become. In exercise, if you try to do too much at once, you could injure yourself and have a setback. Likewise, take it one step at a time in building self-discipline. So, begin by making the decision to go forward and learning what it takes to get there. E) Learn what motivates you and what your
17、bad triggers are. You can begin by learning about yourself! Sometimes it is very difficult to fight off urges and cravings, so know the areas where your resistance is low and how to avoid those situations. If you know you cant resist cake, fries, or other temptations, stay away from them. Do not hav
18、e them around to lure you in moments of weakness. If you also know that putting pressure on yourself does not work for you, then set yourself up in an environment that encourages the building of self-discipline rather than one that sabotages it. Remove the temptations and surround yourself with soot
19、hing and encouraging items such as motivating slogans and pictures of what you want to achieve. F) Learn also what energizes and motivates you.

20、re doing by being energized. This will make it easier to implement desirable and appropriate behaviors into your routine, which is really what self-discipline is all about. G) Make certain behaviors a routine. Once you have decided whats important to you and which goals to strive for, you may establ
21、ish a daily routine that will help you achieve them. For example, if you want to eat healthily or lose weight, you need resolve to eat several servings of fruits and vegetables each day and exercise for at least half an hour. Make it part of your daily routine and part of your self-discipline buildi
22、ng. Likewise, get rid of some of your bad, self-defeating habits, whatever they may be. They can put you in a negative frame of mind and hinder your self-discipline. A poor attitude can also be a bad habit. H) Learn to say no to some of your feelings, impulses and urges. Train yourself to do what yo
23、u know to be right, even if you dont feel like doing it. Skip dessert some evenings. Limit your TV watching. Resist the urge to yell at someone who has irritated you. Stop and think before you act. Think about consequences. When you practice self-restraint it helps you develop the habit of keeping o
24、ther things under control. I) Sports are an excellent way to enhance self-discipline. They train you to set goals, focus your mental and emotional energies, become physically fit, and to get along well with others. Participating in sports provides a situation where you learn to work hard and strive
25、to do your best, which in turn, teaches you to integrate the same thought processes and disciplines into your everyday life. J) Learning to play a musical instrument can be another great way to practice self-discipline. The focus, repetition, and application required in learning to play an instrumen
26、t is invaluable. Achieving self-discipline in any one area of your life reprograms your mind to choose what is right, rather than what is easy. K) Get inspiration from those you admire.
