Get A Grip! Get Movin'.

Discipline and Self-Control
Excerpt from, Long Island Hypnotherapy

“Many people have the mistaken idea that if you work out a lot, or practice your craft for eight hours per day, you have discipline and self-control. Not necessarily. Discipline is the ability to continue to do something that you would rather not do! It’s easy to sit on the couch and watch TV for hours at a time if you like to do that. But try to get someone with lots of energy and no interest in TV to sit there for hours staring at the screen. Now that would take discipline and lots of self-control.

Discipline is what enables people to be successful in many areas of life. It is easy to achieve success in those areas that we enjoy and that come to us naturally. Attaining a high degree of success in areas that we don't really like, but must participate in requires discipline. For many people going to work every day requires discipline. If you ask one hundred people if they like to go to work most of them would say they would rather not. It is rare to find people who would actually choose to go to work if they had the choice of doing other things and still receive a pay check!”
