Our world is built on discipline, without it, our world and our creations within will crumble. Many people speak to be noticed, but the most successful let their work ethic speak for themselves.
It takes practice to be disciplined.
Try to self reflect right now, what is your guilty pleasure? Perhaps you have a nicotine addiction you just can't shake, or maybe you just can't help but order food every time you get some money. This is called lack of discipline, or being comfortable.
How do you escape it?
Well, it's simple for some to grasp, but for others, it can be their biggest challenge in life. Think about how much you've spent on nicotine in your life, could you imagine all of that money in cash, in front of you? Could you imagine all the fast food you've eaten sitting on a table, would it even fit on a single table?
All that money you've spent on nicotine is money that you, at one point or another, had in your possession. All of that fast food is food that you bought, your body ate, broke down, and digested.
Does that thought scare you? It should.
The most valuable attribute one person can have is self-respect. Do you consider putting unknown chemicals and additives into your body self-respect? Didn't think so.
Now, ask yourself, how many times will you say "just one more" before it's too late? Let that alter your "addiction", may you allow positive change for yourself.
It's easy to be comfortable, it's easy to give up. It's much harder to be great.
Finally, ask yourself, will you be great or will you be comfortable?
