Discipline

– It’s not fun working when you feel shit

– It’s not easy to give up coping mechanisms

– It’s not sexy doing work daily

But equally

It works

It gets to a point where you have to have a metaphorical – and sometimes physical – look in the mirror to examine the behaviours and actions you are taking (or not taking) and ‘course correcting’ them so you achieve what you set out to

How do you do that?

1) stop doing the things that are holding you back

2) start doing the things you are putting off/need to do to achieve your goals

There gets a point where you don’t need another coaching call…

Another course isn’t going to fix you…

Your problems are solved with food or drink or whatever vices you have

Because after a while – and I’ve learned the hard way – people get bored of your excuses

You just have to take out a mental contract with yourself

And just do the hard work

No excuses

No drama

Just Do

Get up earlier

Throw out the junk food

Do the calls/emails/posts

Whatever it is?

You KNOW what it is – or isn’t – you need to do

It doesn’t have to be hardcore forever; but some degree of pain and sacrifice IS required to ‘level up’

The ultimate question is

Are YOU prepared to be disciplined for a period of time to get more out of life?

Well, that’s up to you
