Essay 2 : SELF DISCIPLINE.


What is self discipline? Self discipline is the ability to force yourself to do something you know you should do, whether you feel like it or not.
With so many distractions around you, what does it take to stay focused on your goal and keep going until you succeed? The answer is self discipline. But most people in this world are not interested in self discipline. This can be shown in one month of a year, 2800 people searched for the word ‘self-discipline’ at the internet and guess how many searched for the word ‘fun’? 200 000!!!
As we can see, most people are not in self discipline. They prefer to engage in actions that satisfy their short term needs, at the expense of long term failure in life you must therefore be aware of what failures do and make sure you don’t do the same.
Self discipline is important so is the price. Now that you are aware of what it takes to be successful, is success what you truly want? Or are you happier living the life you currently lives in? Because if you want to success, you can have it, and so does everyone else.
Just like in shop, you must first decide what you want, pay the price and it will be ours.
“Discipline is the soul of an army: it makes small number formidable, Procures success to the weak, and esteem to all” - George Washington –
Self discipline is one of many personal development tools available to you. Of course it is not a panacea. Nevertheless, the problems which self discipline can solve are important, and while there are other ways to solve these problems, self discipline absolutely can shred them.
“I think the guys who are really controlling their emotion . . . . . . . . . . are going to win” – Tiger Woods –

Self discipline means of overcoming your natural urge to do what is fun, easy and quick. It takes time to develop but just like any other skill, the more your practice, the stronger it will come. Over time is will also strengthen your character, confidence and self-esteem. If you can force yourself to do what you should do, whether you feel like it or not, your success is virtually guaranteed. Self discipline is extremely important and must be developed in order to succeed.
