Self-Discipline is Taking Control of Your Future


Motivational Power Quote

 Self-Discipline is Taking Control of Your Future
“In reading the lives of great men, I found that the first victory
 they won was over themselves . . . . self-discipline with all of
them came first.”
Harry S. Truman, Thirty-Third U.S. President
 

As I see it . . . . . . .

Self-Discipline is taking control of your future

When you have self-discipline you take control of how you will respond to the conditions in your life . . . .

With self-discipline you make a precise decision to stay in control of your thinking and to respond to a condition . . . . and not to over react and make a bad decision.

Self-discipline is having the willpower to keep your emotions under control . . . . in the storms of your life as well as when you achieve a great accomplishment.

When your emotions are under control you put into a position . . . . of making far better decisions.

To become the master of your life and your future . . . . You first must master the art of self-discipline.  

Self-discipline is the art of knowing when to put the brakes of restraints on and having the strength of mind to put your foot on the accelerator to go forward.

Self-discipline is taking control of your future . . . . by taking control of your emotions.

Making Your Dreams Come True Takes Determination


Motivational Power Quote

Making Your Dreams Come True Takes Determination
“We all have dreams.
But in order to make dreams come into reality,
it takes an awful lot of determination, dedication,
self-discipline, and effort.”
Jesse Owens 1913 - 1980, Olympic Gold Metal (3) Winner


As I see it . . . . . . .

Making your dreams come true takes determination

Dreams are achievable for those who are determinate to achieve them.

The person that commits themselves to achieve their dreams and is willing to work hard to make their dreams a reality takes a giant step in the direction of their dreams.

Things that are worthwhile are worth working for and will take determination to achieve the desired results.

Our dreams are internal and they belong to us and we are the only one that can make them come true.

Focus on your dreams and make them your passion. Make an effort everyday to move yourself in the direction of your dreams and everyday you become a little closer to fulfilling your dreams.

Achieving your dreams will take an effort and determination to stay on course and to work through the challenges you encounter along the way. Commit yourself to the journey to achieve your dreams and have the self-discipline not to stray off course.

Making your dreams come true takes determination.

Success Takes Self-Discipline


Motivational Power Quote

Success Takes Self-Discipline
“Some people regard discipline as a choice.
For me, it is a kind of order that sets me free to fly.”
Julie Andrews, entertainer        


As I see it . . . . . . .

Success takes self-discipline  

In order for professionals to achieve and maintain a level of success they have to practice self-discipline.

For Mohammad Ali one of the greatest heavyweights boxing champion in boxing history it was the road work (running) that he did over his career when there was no one around to cheer him on. And the endless training he did in the ring to get better to float like a butterfly and to sting like a bee.

For Tom Cruise it’s the work he did behind the senses to become the person in the movie. Tom became the cadet in Taps, he was a fighter pilot in Top Gun and a spy in Knight and Day. When you watch a Tom Cruise movie he becomes that person through endless hours of preparation.

Over the years we marveled at Julie Andrews singing and her acting in the movie.

What do they all have in common? They have the self-disciple to lift them to the top of their profession and to maintain a high level of excellence.

In the business world in order to succeed we have to have the self-discipline to move us to the next level.

Success takes self-discipline and time to release your full potential.

We Have To Work at Making Our Dreams Come True

Motivational Power Quote

We Have To Work at Making Our Dreams Come True
“We all have dreams.
But in order to make dreams come into reality,
it takes an awful lot of determination,
determination, dedication,
self-discipline and effort.”
Jessie Owens, Olympic Champing


As I see it. . . . . . . .


We have to work at making our dreams come true


Dreams without a commitment and the dedication to make them come true become a life of unfulfilled dreams and a series of bad memories.


When we turn our dream into a vision for our future and pursue them with determination and purpose we turn our dreams into a reality.


Fulfilling our dreams takes commitment to work hard with a passion to make our dreams come true.
