We all struggle with some detrimental habits that sneak up on us sometimes and get in the way of our effectiveness. We all collectively waste our lives.
How?
We waste our lives with a lack of self-discipline.
As we know self-discipline is a skill. So, it is the ability to focus and overcome distractions. It involves acting according to what you know is right instead of how you feel in the moment.
And let do not forgot that It typically requires sacrificing immediate pleasure and excitement for what matters most in life.
So, what is lack of self-discipline?
It is the ability to focus and overcome distractions!
We tell ourselves we are going to work on something, but then we don’t.When this happens to me, first I realize it, then I forgive myself for messing up, and then I am looking to find what’s really going on. Am I procrastinating for some reason? Am I distracted? Instead of telling myself that I’m “bad” or “undisciplined,” I try to productively uncover a more specific, solvable problem, and then address it.
What do you do if your life is in complete disarray, you have hardly any self-discipline, can’t stick to anything, procrastinate constantly, and feel completely out of control?
How do you start with building a healthy ritual of self-discipline?
Start with small steps.
Such as making your bed, washing your teeth, washing your dishes, etc. Don’t leave any dirty dishes in the sink or on the counter for later. Wash them immediately. Then put your clothes where they belong when you take them off.
Do one of these at a time, and you’ll start to build a healthy habit of self-discipline, and finally know yourself to be capable of finishing what you start.
Doing this you will find more balance in your life too. Don't forget to download the free book Life balance and let me know how can I help more.
