August 27 - Need more discipline?

August 27 – Need more discipline? Are you not getting the consistent results you desire and yet feel you are doing all you can do? Do you find yourself frustrated by efforts you have recently made with no immediate traction? Are you revisiting desires over and over again, and yet nothing is actually happening toward realizing them?

It takes discipline to realize results. Discipline is putting habits into motion that are guided by what you want and desire the most. Being persistent, insistent and consistent in your efforts amounts to being willing to have an unwavering discipline. Discipline is not a mundane sentence. Discipline is a measure of your commitment to whatever it is you desire to accomplish. Discipline requires learning. Discipline requires forming habits. Choices depict what you make a priority. Discipline requires making choices every day that affirm your priorities.

Questions and insights to help you embrace discipline as a momentum multiplier.
