If you will only dare to dream, and then endure with discipline, you will stand out among the masses. – the Wealthy Gardener
LIFE LESSON 4-50 REMINDER
“The one quality which sets one man apart from another—the key which lifts one to every aspiration while others are caught up in the mire of mediocrity—is not talent, formal education, nor intellectual brightness,” said Theodore Roosevelt. “It is self-discipline. With self-discipline, all things are possible. Without it, even the simplest goal can seem like the most impossible dream.”
I never enjoyed the daily pain during the years I built my wealth, but I was rewarded by conquering it.
Always know that you have the discipline to do what needs to be done, when it needs to be done, even when you don’t want to do it. You’re big enough to swallow your pride. You’re smart enough to resist laziness. You’re focused enough to use each day to better yourself.
Success may be hard. But so too is mediocrity.
Among all disciplines, there is one that governs the rest. It is the easiest of them to perform and perhaps the easiest to forget as well. It is the discipline of living with daily purpose.
Just write your goals today. Draw them on paper. Commit them to memory. What does success look like to you now, and in five years?
You need to know it, or you’ll never get it.
Brian Tracy said, “Your ability to discipline yourself to set clear goals, and then to work toward them every day, will do more to guarantee your success than any other single factor.”
You’ll live your dreams tomorrow due to your discipline today.
