Work at Home Productivity Tips –

Time and time again, I find that the secret to almost any success formula or system is self discipline.

Without it, what do you have?

Usually a lot of disappointment and asking yourself why things aren't working for you.

Self discipline helps us to accomplish the things that we want and to be what we want to be.

It makes us feel good inside, like almost nothing else. 

ONE OF THE GREATEST GIFTS – WITH A CAPITAL G 

One of the greatest gifts you can give yourself is learning to master the art of self-discipline. Learning how to tell yourself no is an important step to become a stronger, wiser and more mature person.

And it's often the first step before saying yes!

While practicing self-discipline isn't easy, there are many benefits to mastering this art of personal control:

* Self-discipline can help you achieve your goals and realize your dreams. Many times, achieving the goals you set for yourself requires you to sacrifice time, money and energy you might prefer to spend on other things. But it's always your choice. It is just a matter of making the right one.

* Self-discipline helps you get more done. By cutting out time wasters in your day, you can accomplish more every day and reach your goal sooner. Without the self-discipline to stick to a task, you can be easily distracted by less important details and spend a lot of your time chasing your goals on the side. Lots of time.

* Self-discipline helps you have greater focus. By shutting out the things that take you away from your work, you can focus on what is most important. You must be able to focus on one thing at a time and do it well.

Focus is nearly impossible to achieve without self-discipline, and goals are nearly impossible to achieve without focus.

THE KEY TO THE KINGDOM IS SELF DISCIPLINE 

The keys to self-discipline is commitment. Commitment to yourself first. To do what you know you need to do. Even when you don't want to. Especially when you don't want to.

Make everything that is important a non negotiable.

If it's not a non negotiable, then reconsider why you are doing it.

The trick is to have enough non negotiables in your day to make it count towards the big picture.

And the self discipline to carry them through. 

THE FOUNDATION OF SELF DISCIPLINE IS…

The foundation of self discipline is self-respect. In order to live the life you truly desire, you need to care for yourself properly. Respect every part of yourself:

1. Respect your body. Eat properly. Exercise. Stay calm. Make all of these a priority. Really. Pay attention to the signals your body sends you. Treat yourself with VIP handling to be the strongest and most productive you can be!

2. Nurture your mind by filling it with positive, engaging information.

* Read books for the sheer joy of learning, imagination and relaxation.
* Engage in meaningful discussions with people of all backgrounds and philosophies.
* Avoid negative people and conversations.
* Listen to joyful, uplifting music instead of letting the television flood your mind with commercialism and negativity.

3. Respect the spiritual part of yourself. It's important to feel connected to something larger than you are. Connect with your Creator by meditating, praying or spending time in nature.

* Attend worship services at a local church, if that's part of your belief system.
* Allow the spiritual side of yourself to become stronger and more important to you.
* Base decisions on the greater good rather than simply what feels good at the time.
* Walk in a scenic area, garden or spend time in beauty as a regular part of your day. Breath it in.

4. Respect your time. This includes your work time, family time, playtime and personal time. Make space in your life for every area. Schedule family time and alone time just as you do work time and other obligations.

If you want to live your life to the fullest and achieve your goals, self-discipline is a must. Learning how to control your impulses and make strong decisions is one of the best things you can do for yourself.

Bottom line?

Self-discipline can bring you the life you always wanted.

Because when it comes down to it, it's always up to you.
