Do you want to lose weight, overcome an addiction or change something else about yourself?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The solution to success is self-discipline.<\/p>\n
You can find out what this means and how to build up your self-discipline here.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Self-control or self-discipline is the ability to put a desire into practice, even if the path is uncomfortable.<\/p>\n
If you say to your reflection in the mirror: 'You are too fat, you need to lose weight', without self-discipline it would remain with these words. But with self-discipline, you start to realise this wish. Self-discipline kicks in when you make a conscious decision to turn an idea into action.
Self-discipline is a tool that is important for your personal development.<\/p>\n
Self-discipline helps you to overcome the biggest hurdles when you are fighting an addiction or want to change something about yourself.<\/p>\n
The five pillars of self-mastery are willpower, hard work, perseverance, optimism and motivation.<\/p>\n
Willpower:<\/strong> You have the will to gain power over your actions and reactions. You can achieve everything you become if you really want to.<\/p>\n Hard work:<\/strong> You have to keep working on yourself. Remind yourself every day of your goal and how you want to achieve it.<\/p>\n Endurance:<\/strong> Don't give up, you can do anything you want. You can't change overnight, it takes time.<\/p>\n Optimism:<\/strong> Concentrate on the positive things that give you strength. Don't let the occasional setback unsettle you. This is completely normal.<\/p>\n Motivation:<\/strong> Motivate yourself to achieve your goal and get your emotions under control.<\/p>\n Imagine how satisfied you will be when you have reached your goal.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Self-discipline is like a muscle. The more you train, the stronger you become. The less you train, the weaker you become.<\/p>\n Just as everyone has different levels of muscle strength, everyone also has an individual level of self-discipline. You need muscles to build muscles, you also need self-discipline to build self-discipline.<\/p>\n To build up your self-discipline, you need to push yourself to the limits of your ability, like lifting weights. Take on challenges that push you to the limits of your self-control but are just within those limits. Each hurdle you overcome will give you strength for the next challenge. It would be wrong to set your goal too high. If you don't achieve it, you will suffer a setback that can weaken you.<\/p>\n It doesn't matter how small you start if you don't have much self-discipline.<\/p>\n Start by holding your breath for a certain amount of time and push yourself to reach your goal. Test your limits before you set yourself a goal.<\/p>\n When you are satisfied with what you have achieved, go one step further.<\/p>\n For example, if you want to lose weight, start by eating sugar-free and low-fat products instead of your usual meals and snacks, without reducing the amount at the beginning.<\/p>\n Only when you feel comfortable with this can you go one step further and reduce the number of meals or replace them with fruit.<\/p>\n Don't compare yourself with others. Always remember that this is all about you. You only find in others what you want to find, if you find yourself weak, everyone else will naturally seem strong to you.<\/p>\n Every step you take will be easier in the future. Just like a muscle that has been trained once 'remembers', your brain remembers what you have learnt.<\/p>\n Don't forget to reward yourself every now and then for what you have achieved. This will boost your motivation and give you a good feeling.<\/p>\n Write down your goal so that you can remind yourself of it again and again in weak moments.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Do you want to lose weight, overcome an addiction or change something else about yourself?
