on the MEANING and the MESSAGE of today’s quotation
Have you ever tried really hard to achieve a goal by exercising self-discipline? If so, what was the goal, and in what way did you exercise self-discipline in order to try to achieve the goal?
Have you ever achieved a goal that you initially doubted you would be able to reach? What was the goal, and how, if at all, did exercising self-discipline play a role in your achieving the goal?
“There are many truths of which the full meaning cannot be realized until personal experience has brought it home.” (John Stuart Mill)

INSIGHTS for SUCCESS
“The ability to discipline yourself to delay gratification in the short term in order to enjoy greater rewards in the long term is the indispensable prerequisite for success.” Maxwell Maltz
“Self-discipline is the ability to make yourself do what you should do, when you should do it, whether you feel like it or not.” Elbert Hubbard
The importance of mastering self-discipline in achieving one’s goals cannot be emphasized enough. Achieving meaningful goals becomes almost impossible without the exercise of self-discipline.
Being able to do what you know you should do and what you need to do will not only make it possible to fulfill your daily responsibilities, but will enable you to extend your reach beyond what you initially believed possible.
With the exercise of self-discipline people often surprise themselves with their ability to reach their goals, and often to exceed their own expectations and the expectations of others. On the other hand, it is a lack of self-discipline that often is the foundation for inaction and disappointment.
