A friend asked me recently where did I get the discipline to do a blog every week along with all that I do. “I didn’t know I had it in me”, I said to her. Thinking about it I really didn’t know. That’s when you really don’t know what you are capable of until you try. It’s discipline that makes the difference in our lives in how we have things happen or not happen to us or for us. Many persons think that it’s the fact that you have a God given gift that makes you outstanding but I think it’s also the ability to work at what you want to be better at.
Even when I don’t feel like writing I start anyway so that I push myself and hopefully come up with something great. If it’s not great I just try again. I know that it makes no sense just throwing your hands up in defeat because you failed. Failing is not the end of the world, it’s just a setback. Step around the big stone and start again, but that only happens with discipline and determination.
Now when I talk about discipline it’s not related to punishment it’s just being able to focus on the goal/the prize. It’s about putting one foot in front of the other. It’s keeping focused and ensuring we keep on the blinders. Without doing that we go off on a tangent and might never get back. Believe me I would know as I have been there.
Is discipline something innate or something that can be leant? Can you ensure it becomes ingrained. Or is it really hard to achieve? How is it that some persons are always on point and can discipline themselves while others can’t? What causes that difference? It’s just interesting that some can and others can’t. Is it just a matter or putting your mind to whatever you want without fail? Or is it really just something that happens?
How do you ensure you stay disciplined? Is discipline a part of your life? How will it work? Let me know as I really want to know what you are thinking, and I know others do too.
