Personal Discipline Self Discipline

"When you discipline yourself to do the things you need to do when you need to do them, the day will come when you can do the things you want to do when you want to do them."

I believe in that above saying though I haven't master it. To be an entrepreneur, you must be disciplined to do the things you have to do each and every day. Simply because the time is all yours and business activities only happen when you want them to.

In the first few days of my entrepreneurial life, I slept in late and relish my new found freedom. Before long, I found myself waking up later every morning. And once in a a while, I 'll slip into this pattern again.

To remind myself this very important trait to be a successful entrepreneur and person too, I have printed out the below New Year resolution sheet in front my work desk.


Self-discipline is very important for anyone, not only entrepreneur, to succeed in life.

To able to do the necessary and delay anygratifications so that you can achieve more earlier definitely takes a strong will person to see it through. To help yourself stay disciplined, visualize the future that you can achieve if you stay on the right course. I'm sure it'll help to keep your discipline.

Sometimes, I just commit myself publicly (by announcing it) to a project  or a promise, thereby forcing myself to see through it.

What about you? How do you remind yourself to be discipline when you slip? Any special techniques you employ? Do share if you have.
