Self-Discipline

 


  How's here has always lost your own motivation, doesn't want to push yourself forward, and doesn't want to take action? If it does you need to learn how to develop self-discipline. So what is self-discipline is the ability to push yourself forward, stay motivated, and take action, regardless of how you're feeling, physically, or emotionally. Self-discipline is different from self-motivation or willpower. Motivation and willpower contribute to it as fo persistence and hard work. So how do develop self-discipline?

  Find your own motivation. Once you've chosen a goal in your life, list the reasons why you want to achieve it and try to express their reasons in a positive way. For example, instead of saying "I want to exercise four times a week to lose weight," say "I want to exercise so that I have the energy to play with my children."

  Create new habits by keeping them simple. It feels daunting at first to acquire self-discipline and work a new habit. To avoid feeling intimidated is just keep it simple. Break your goal into small, doable steps. Instead of trying to change everything at once. Think one thing consistently and master self-discipline with that goal in mind. 

  Start with a small step. Change is hard and our brains are wired to return to what feels comfortable and predictable. Big changes can be really hard. But if you start slow, you can build momentum without getting overwhelmed. Let's say if you want to start walking 30 minutes a day, six days a week, start with five minutes a day. If you feel like continuing after five minutes, go for it! When our mind thinks it's going to be easy, it allows us to get started, and then we can use that momentum to keep going.

  It's important to develop self-discipline in life. Self-discipline is make us do high-quality work, even when we're tired. You have ambitious and are ready to reach your goals. But if you don't know the strategy, you're ambitious and your goals are meaningless. So take one strategy, one step, one change to move forward. You have the power t be more disciplined. Thank you and have a nice day 😀. You can do this!

Leader Vs Boss

    Some people might use the terms "boss" and "leader" interchangeably, but that's not entirely accurate. The truth is, some bosses are simply a boss. They have attained a position in the management section of the corporate pyramid. Those positions alone don't make them leaders. They are just pushing their employers while "sitting down". However, bosses can become leaders, and doing so should become a priority for those who want to effectively lead in the workplace. So, what is the difference between a leader and a boss?   A boss refers to an individual who is in charge of the employee or an organisation. He exercises control over employees, assigns tasks, and duties to them, and is entitled to take decisions on some matters. There is no formal title like "boss" in the organisational chart, but the term indicates a person who is the owner or appointed as head of the organisation, department, or division.   On the other hand, the term lea

About Phubbing

    In the Digital Era, smartphones have become the number one priority in society. When it comes to our smartphones, nothing else in our lives gets as much attention. A single notification can branch to half days only checking the status or short videos on social media. If we lose it, the stress starts to build up rapidly. Getting by without a smartphone really is not possible anymore, and from that other areas of our lives are bound to be affected.   Phubbing describes the act of "phone-snubbing". It is a term that most people might not be familiar with, but the action is certainly one we all recognise. If we are going outside let's say, how often have we been physically in the presence of someone, but they're emotionally "not there" because they are absorbed in their smartphone? Quite a lot, isn't it?   Smartphones and text messaging help partners display love and affection to each other when they are physically apart. However, what happens when smart

Early Birds and Night Owls

  In this world, there are two kinds of people in this world, people who love to hear birds chirping in the morning, and people who wish the birds had a mute button somewhere. Someone likes the sun going up, someone likes the sun drowning to keep the night up. In other words, early birds and night owls. So, which one are you?    Early birds or morning people. They are awake in the morning and love to welcome the new day. Early birds tend to go to bed early, wake up early, and feel their best as the day begins. As a general rule, early birds find a society more accommodating than night owls do. Early birds generally have an easier time adjusting to standard daytime schedules.    On the other hand, night owls or night people tend to stay up late, enjoy sleeping in, have more energy at night, and feel tired after waking up early. Night owls do have a few downsides. They might have a harder time holding a traditional job. Young night owls might have trouble making a fixed school or univers
