Introduction

Self-discipline is, without a doubt, one of the most important life skills everyone, and I mean everyone , should have. There are, of course, plenty of other essential life skills everyone should master such as people skills, time and money management skills, survival skills, professional skills, communication skills, and more.

Read the last sentence again. Do you know what all these other skills have in common?

If you answered self-discipline, youre absolutely correct! You need to have the discipline to effectively master many different life

skills. Skills that are important for your success at work, at school, at home, or anywhere else for that matter.

Now, achieving self-discipline is not easy . Dont trust anyone who tells you that. To achieve self-discipline you need to have the ability to control your emotions, your body and your mind.

Its the ability to rise beyond your weaknesses and be strong enough to resist temptations that may come your way ( and you will have plenty of those, trust me ). If you think doing that is easy, then youre probably superhuman or maybe even a robot!

We may not share the same weaknesses but as humans, we all have weaknesses. It could be something material or immaterial, it could be tangible or non-tangible, it can even be a living thing like other human beings or animals. Every time you see these objects, these weaknesses, your resolve weakens and you lose your self- control. In some cases, maybe even your self-respect.

Overcoming your weaknesses is necessary for you to be successful at disciplining yourself. Why? You simply dont have a choice. Temptations and obstacles will litter your path to success and its important you avoid these at all cost! If you fail, if you give in to your weaknesses, then youre also going to fail big time on self-discipline.

If youve always wanted to achieve or excel at something, such as in sports, academics, arts, music, and more , you need to have the self-discipline to go after what you want, to chase after your dreams. You dont just sit around and wait for something to happen. Because nothing will happen. You have to put in the work, most probably over a long period of time, so you can achieve whatever it is youre aiming for.

By the time you finish reading the last chapter in this eBook, youll know everything there is to know about self-discipline and how you can use it to build your mental strength to resist temptation so you can finally reach your goals.

Chapter 1 - What Is Your Why?

Its very easy to say youre going to accomplish something, anything , in the next 12 months. You can say youre going to be 20 pounds lighter or youll be living in Europe after a year or you can even say youre going to find the love of your life soon and tie the knot in the next 12 months!

You can do a lot of things, be in a lot of places and meet loads of new people in under a year. You have an infinite number of possible goals you can choose to achieve.

Your chosen goal could be in response to a dare from your friends or maybe a personal challenge you want to take on. No matter the reason behind your sudden desire to succeed at something new, you need one very important skill to achieve that goal.
