What is Self Discipline?- 'The training and control of one self and ones conduct, usually for self improvement'. Self Discipline is also one of the key factors of success. It's the ability to do something regardless of how you feel, what your body tells you and when you are supposed to do it. It's also about having the perseverance to follow through no matter what. Look at any Successful Bodybuilder, CEO, Entrepreneur, Athlete, Etc. You will see that each an every one of them possess the trait of Self Discipline. Without it, success in all areas of your life will continue to elude you. And you will probably never be satisfied. It gives you a sense of accomplishment and achievement in a world that is lacking discipline everywhere you turn. If you are lacking Self Discipline in your life and you are looking for a way to develop mental toughness, I suggest you look no further tha Weight Training. Weight Training and Discipline go hand in hand. Weight trainers know that Self Discipline is the key to building Raw Muscle. Pushing for that next rep even though every last cell in your body is screaming NO!! Making yourself go to the Gym when all of your other lazy a** friends are getting tore up at a party. Having the will power to Dominate, every day in the Gym, and Persevere through the toughest of times. Weight training on a consistent basis can have a major effect on your everyday lives, and not just physically, I can personally attest to this. Looking back throughout the years it amazes me to this day how Weight training has affected my discipline level. I was the procrastinator from Hell, and now more often than not, I get things done, on time. I know that the majority of this has come from Weight training. Discipline is developed through constantly challenging yourself to improve, getting better with each and every lifting session, or with anything in your life. There is no more room for B.S. You learn to overcome and adapt. Weight lifters have no choice but to be disciplined. It's in our DNA, there is no room for laziness and procrastination. When you start telling your body what it has to do regardless of how sh*tty you feel. Your body starts to respond by adapting, not only in the Gym, but outside as well. It simply has no choice, given that you are relentless and driven. Don't think that half a**ing it is going to cut it. For most people, doing a set of Jumping jacks with 1 LB. wrist weights probably isn't going to challenge your body and mind. Remember...You must be relentless and train with intensity in the gym for Discipline to start showing itself daily. Self Discipline is a mindset, for Weight Lifters it's also a way of life. Start training and you will be rewarded with a mindset that only resides in an elite group of individuals. It just might give you the missing ingredient needed for a happy more successful and productive life. Good Luck. Brad
