Book excerpt: There are countless people in the world who have major goals they want to accomplish. Their biggest worry seems to be that they don't have enough time to accomplish everything. There are also people who suffer immensely on a daily basis, who cannot seem to catch a break. They get one bad deal after another and are unable to get through the difficult moments in their lives. Eventually, their situations become worse, and they fall into an abyss of bad luck that appears inescapable. If the above circumstances seem personally familiar to you, then you may be suffering from a lack of self-discipline, and I used the word suffering intentionally. Self-discipline means having the ability to overcome one's feelings and act based on thoughts rather than emotions. Our feelings will tell us what we desire at the moment, but what we desire is not always the best for us. In fact, it can be downright detrimental. Self-discipline has many benefits for us, but the focus of this book, Self-Discipline in Difficult Times, will be regarding difficult situations and attaining goals. Everyone deals with major challenges at some point in their lives. Some experience it more than others due to a variety of factors. The common denominator is that those who overcome and persevere are the individuals who don't lack discipline. As you read through the chapters in this book, you will learn: What self-discipline is and how it is related to mental toughness. How having poor self-esteem can make situations worse. The many different barriers to gaining self-esteem and how to overcome them. Once you recognize them, you can start dealing with them too. Various exercises to increase mental toughness, including one of the most important aspects, emotional intelligence. The importance of having a good attention span and how to improve your own. This includes getting rid of heavy distractions. Many different exercises for self-discipline, including meditation and mindfulness. Why people with self-discipline are more resilient and able to handle what life throws at them. Self-discipline is an essential skill that is often overlooked. However, once you develop good self-discipline, you will notice massive improvements in many areas of your life. You will become more focused, goal-oriented, be able to face challenges, and improve your relationships. Basically, you will no longer be a punching bag for other people in life. You will start valuing yourself and what you bring to the table. One thing to remember is that self-discipline is not a destination but a lifelong journey. The quest to become the best version of yourself will, and should, never end. The concepts of self-discipline are simple but hardly easy to execute. You will have to put in a lot of time, effort, and even discipline to make these strategies work for you. When you start seeing improvements, it will all be worth it. If you are excited about the topic of self-discipline and how it can help you, then take the first step in grabbing the bull by its horns.
