Discipline is the most important thing that matters most. In fact, I would advocate a stint with the military for a year or so for youngsters to underline the importance of discipline that students will learn in military. Even in best schools, discipline is the most important factor which molds students into better individuals. Successful people have some of the best habits which they always keep with them. How are these habits formed? Say, if you want to run around 5 km daily. You get up in the morning and run on first day. You are not able to run and so you quit it after a week or so. If you are looking to get up at 5 am, one day you will get up and then feel sleepy for the whole day. Similarly take any target, be it in business or related to your weight loss, the result will be same.
The major reason for this is the will power. To get any habit successfully, you need a lot of will power. If your will power is good then you will get disciplined in any habit. The goal of running 5 km daily is daunting if you are not accustomed to running at all. It is not easy to walk 5 km, let alone run the distance when you are not doing any of the walking or running at present. Your legs may pain, you will get tired and then eventually you will lose the will power to run daily. The best thing to do is to go 'Mini' way. Set mini goals and achieve them. This does a lot of good to your will power. Once your will power is with you, start increasing your distance. Once you have reached the distance that you want to cover, it will be quite easy to do it on a daily basis. It will form into a habit. Similarly, if you aim to get up at 5 am from present 7 am, then rise early gradually. first get up at 6.30 am for a few days, then 6 am and then 5.30 am and 5 am. Once you start with mini step, your body will get into a habit of getting up at 5 am.
Similar mini steps can be used to complete your goals - personal or business. Step by Step is the way to go.
