If you’d like to learn how to develop self-discipline so you can stick to your decisions and follow them through, sign up for the free 90-Day Master Class hosted by the founder of Addicted2Success.com, Joel Brown.
What are the qualities of a disciplined person? How can self-discipline help you in business? How to know if you have self-discipline? To put it simply, self-discipline is all about willpower, but to really be in control of yourself, you will need to learn many new habits.
The characteristics of a disciplined person include such things as determination, being hardworking, organizational skills, and so on.
Here are the seven self-discipline tips that will help you in business:
1. Understand Your Weaknesses
First and foremost, you need to understand your weaknesses. You might know what your strengths are as well as your talents, but if you don’t know your weaknesses, you won’t be able to direct your efforts correctly and either get rid of your weaknesses or find a way to transform them into something positive.
To understand your weaknesses, try to test yourself in different situations. For example, when you are working on a particular project with your team, analyze which parts of the projects you are not performing as well in as you would like to. These will probably be the aspects you need to work on because these are your weaknesses.
2. Create a Plan and Follow It
The second thing you should do is create a plan and follow it. But first, you will need to set yourself achievable goals that will motivate your plan of action. For example, you want to become a more responsible person and stop looking for excuses that lead to procrastination. To do this, you will need to improve your willpower with the help of a lot of practice.
Once you have this aim in mind, you can create a step-by-step plan for yourself with the details of what you will be doing to improve your willpower and become a more responsible person in the end.
3. Improve Your Willpower and Self-Discipline
Now, once you have a plan ready, you will need to improve your willpower and in turn, your self-discipline. Even if you didn’t set willpower improvement as one of your aims, you need to realize that it is one of the most important steps on your way to better self-discipline.
There is no one way to train your willpower except for taking baby steps and improving what you already have. Even a person with very poor willpower can be trained to become very self-disciplined if it is done gradually. If you know that you won’t be able to do it on your own, make sure to have a friend or a colleague help you on your way.
“All successes begin with self-discipline. It starts with you.” – The Rock
4. Get Rid of Temptations and Distractions
Temptations and distractions will not only reduce your productivity, but they will also make your road to self-discipline much harder. This is why you want to get rid of all the possible temptations and distractions that could potentially prevent you from reaching your aim as quickly as possible.
5. Keep Your Habits Consistent
One of the easiest ways to lose your direction is by doing everything sporadically. Even if you have a clear goal in mind, you might find it difficult to work towards it if you are not organized enough. This is why you need to develop habits in yourself and keep them consistent by sticking to them no matter what.
In fact, you could even set up a daily, weekly, or monthly plan for yourself detailing what you will be doing and when (at what time and how often).
6. Reward Yourself for Your Achievements
Though being self-disciplined is all about being stricter with yourself, it’s important that you take a step back sometimes and give yourself a break. Moreover, when you have an achievement worth celebrating, don’t hesitate to reward yourself for the milestone you have reached.
For example, if you and your team have made an important new discovery about your business performance or you have exceeded the monthly quota and made several times more sales than you should have, you probably should give yourself a pat on the back and celebrate it with your team in some way.
“Self-discipline is a key to many doors. Not least of which is one that leads to a better, stronger, and healthier version of yourself.” – Zero Dean
7. Forgive Yourself and Learn from Mistakes
Last but not least, you should always remember that nobody is perfect and everyone makes mistakes. But this doesn’t mean that you need to worry about these mistakes at all times. Instead, you need to find a way to forgive yourself and learn from the mistakes you have made in the past.
Final Thoughts
To sum up, if you want to be a disciplined person, you need to develop certain characteristics and build habits that will improve your willpower. Only when you have built these habits and improved your willpower will you be able to become a more self-disciplined person.
Then, you can use your new skills to improve your business strategy and benefit from it. Use the tips in this article to create your plan of action and become a more self-disciplined person.

How to Break the Cycles of Mediocrity and Manifest Your Greatness
There is no greatness without becoming and there is no becoming with authenticity

In just a few weeks, we will be wrapping up 2023. Can you believe it? This year has been absolutely incredible for me.
I have seen amazing doors opened, new relationships formed and I am seeing dreams realized in my life. While this seems like the hallmarks of a great year, this has also been the most challenging year of my life. With all of the change happening in my life, I have been forced out of my comfort zone and challenged to grow in every area of my life.
I can truly say that I have made the most of my moments this year and I have used everything as a catalyst for maximizing my greatest potential.
As a revolutionary leader, I have the pleasure of consulting and advising leaders around the world to fulfill purpose, realize their greatest potential and make an impact.
I want to share some insights with you that will help you to break cycles of mediocrity and manifest your greatness.
Everything legal must come through the matrix
I am sure that some of you are wondering why I am using the term matrix. However, what you have to understand is that I am trying to make a highly complex spiritual principle practical to understand.
Regardless of your spiritual beliefs, every life has an origin and I believe that origin is divine and begins with eternity. You are birthed from eternity and into time to fulfill a unique purpose and assignment in your lifetime and generation.
The matrix is simply the portal or vehicle that brings something out of the invisible realm and into tangible form. The problem with much of the teaching today is that it excludes the matrix. We are told to believe that success is instantaneous and overnight.
Nobody talks about how a dream progresses through stages beginning with visualization and ultimately culminating in manifestation. Without a matrix or portal then everything that you attempt to birth and build will be illegal.
The matrix not only makes you legal but it gives you the authority and power to function as the greatest expression of who you were created to be.
Every matrix has an incubation process
While many people admire and respect me today, I remember a time when nobody knew who I was or the significance of my message. How did I get to where I am today? I got here through an incubation process.
In other words, everything that has been destined for your life is incubating and awaiting a set time of manifestation. The problem is that most people live their entire lives idle and never initiate the incubation process.
What do I meany by that? Most people are living reckless and very few people are living intentionally. I am amazed at the number of people I have conversations with that have no vision, goals or strategies for their lives. They show great promise and they have undeniable potential.
However, without development they will die with their dreams still in them.
Everything that has been destined for your life must be incubated and converted to become realities born to time.
“Visualize this thing that you want, see it, feel it, believe in it. Make your mental blueprint and begin to build.” – Robert Collier
You must give expression to that which is not yet born to time
When you think about a matrix or a prophetic incubation process, you have to understand that potential is often unrealized and untapped. In other words, your potential is in raw form and your potential cannot serve you as long as it is untapped.
The thing that makes me valuable is that I have the ability to convert potential into power. I have done it in my own life and I have empowered leaders around the world to do the same. How do you convert potential into power?
First, it is important to note that you have to perceive potential. If you cannot perceive your potential then you can never cultivate your potential. In addition, you must take the time to cultivate your potential. We often get excited about our capabilities; however, we never expand our capacity in order to realize our greatest potential.
In other words, the strength of your potential is only discovered through your willingness to stretch. The more we are challenged the more we are empowered to expand our capacity for greatness. Most of all, you must begin to express your potential. The expression of potential is different for every person.
For example, the expression of my potential is best demonstrated through the thoughts, ideas, products, services, books, etc.
For another person the expression of potential may look like a screenplay, artwork, sports, scientific discoveries, medical breakthroughs, etc.
Regardless of the form of expression, I know that you will live empty and unfulfilled until you make the decision to express your potential. The expression of your potential gives voice to your dreams, life to your vision, significance to your moments and activates your true power.
You must manifest your greatness
As a revolutionary thinker and leader, my work has impacted people around the world. I am grateful that my life is a source of empowerment to so many people. However, before anyone could ever benefit from my life, I had to make a non-negotiable decision to become who I was born to be.
I wish I could tell you that this journey is easy and that you will get there overnight. However, in a world that celebrates us for doing we are often criticized for being. As a result, I wasted a lot of time trying to be who other people wanted me to be instead of being who I was born to be.
There is no greatness without becoming and there is no becoming with authenticity. It is through our bravery to be vulnerable that we ultimately manifest our greatness. We do not bless the world by being a duplicate. We bless the world when we honor our difference. When you honor your difference you honor your potential.
Ultimately, your difference is how you manifest your greatness.
When you present anything but your authentic self to the world, you are playing small and you are robbing the world of your significance. Manifesting your greatness requires you to master your gifts.
