When you come to the end of each day, how do you tend to feel? Are you satisfied, typically, with the way you spent your day? Do you tend to hit the pillow feeling grateful for the opportunities that came your way and satisfied that you fulfilled your responsibilities, lived up to your own standards for yourself, and made progress toward your goals? Or do you usually find yourself wishing you’d procrastinated less, wasted less time, and stepped up more forthrightly in the face of challenges?
The difference between the two experiences tends to come down to one thing—self-discipline. Self-discipline is the unwavering force that separates dreams from reality and transforms potential into achievement.
