Self-Discipline
The most important habit you can develop for success, achievement and happiness is the habit of
self-discipline. Perhaps the best definition of self-discipline comes from Elbert Hubbard, “Self-discipline
is the ability to make yourself do what you should do, when you should do it, whether you feel like
it or not.”
The habit of self-discipline is closely tied to the Law of Control that says, “You feel happy about yourself
to the degree to which you feel you are in control of your own life.”
Self-discipline is the key to self-mastery and self-control. The more capable you become of disciplining
yourself to do what you have decided to do, whether you feel like it or not, the more positive
and powerful you will feel.
There is a direct relationship between self-discipline and self-esteem. The more you discipline yourself
to behave in the manner that you have decided, the more you like and respect yourself. The more positive
and confident you will feel. The stronger and more in charge of your life and situation you become.
This is why the happiest, most successful and most respected men and women in our society are all
men and women of great self-control, self-mastery and self-discipline.
