Digna Love: How to Develop Self-Discipline

Nobody can achieve success in any endeavour without self-discipline. Digna Love believes that self-discipline is the ultimate tool needed to achieve personal excellence and outstanding performance. Self-discipline is the ability to control one’s emotions and desires. People who have self-discipline have the ability to make sound judgements, plan and take actions.

A key tool to develop self-discipline is goal-setting. Discover what you really want. Learn to set specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time-bound goals. Also, learn to write down your goals and check your progress regularly. Furthermore, you need to list the reasons why you need to achieve those goals.

 



Successful people are individuals who constantly overcome challenges. Identify the key obstacles to achieving your goals and develop simple and effective strategies to help you overcome them. You also need to stay focused, determined and review your goals daily. You need to understand that failure is part of the process. Therefore, if you get off-track, do not beat yourself up, take up the courage and try again.

Self-discipline will become much easier if you focus your mental and physical efforts on things that can add value to your life and learn to say no to some of your feelings and urges. Get inspiration from those that you admire and always set your eyes on the reward.

Digna Love is a holistic healer and a business owner. She has been practicing channelling and meditation for years. She believes that self-discipline entails being able to deny oneself of immediate pleasure and gratification in order to achieve a long-term fulfilment and satisfaction from achieving higher goals.
