THE POWER OF DISCIPLINE



“To get what you've never had, you must do what you've never done.”

Understanding this short quote can be the difference between winning or losing; between greatness or mediocrity. It captures the essence of discipline.

Why are some people more successful than others? Why do some people make more money, live happier lives and accomplish much more in the same number of years than the great majority?

One quality that most philosophers, teachers and experts agree on is the importance of self-discipline. As Al Tomsik summarized it years ago, “Success is tons of discipline.”

Kop Kopmeyer, a legend in the field of success and achievement who wrote four large books, each of which contained 250 success principles that he had derived from more than fifty years of research and study was asked this question, “Of all the one thousand success principles that you have discovered, which do you think is the most important?”

Without hesitation he replied, “The most important success principle of all was stated by Thomas Huxley many years ago.
He said, 'Do what you should do, when you should do it, whether you feel like it or not.'”

He went on to say, “There are 999 other success principles that I have found in my reading and experience, but without self-discipline, none of them work.”

Self-discipline is the key to personal greatness.
It is the magic quality that opens all doors for you, and makes everything else possible.

With self-discipline, the average person can rise as far and as fast as his talents and intelligence can take him.

But without self-discipline, a person with every blessing of background, education and opportunity will seldom rise above mediocrity.

DAILY MOTIVATION- SUCCESS IS A STATE OF MIND



If you truly want to be successful, start thinking of yourself as successful.

The only thing that stands between you and what you want from life, is simply the will to try it and the faith to believe that it is possible.

There is nothing on earth that you can't have,once you mentally accept the fact that you can have it.

The feeling must come first. If you actually feel successful, if you have a deep inner conviction that you'll always have all that you need, it will be so.

Whatever your mind can conceive and believe in, your mind can help you achieve.
