Your Best Friend

I could try to say this better.

I can’t.

More often than not, we just need to listen


The answer is discipline.

You want more free time?

Follow a more disciplined time management system.

You want financial freedom?

Implement long-term financial discipline in your life.

Do you want to be physically free to move how you want—to be freed from many health issues caused by poor lifestyle choices?

Then you have to have the discipline to eat healthy food and consistently work out.

We all want freedom.

Discipline is the only way to get it.

Discipline equals freedom.

Discipline starts with waking up early, it really does.

But that is just the beginning.

It is working out everyday.

It is eating the right foods to fuel your system correctly.

It is disciplining your emotions so you can make good decisions.

It is about having the discipline to control your ego so it doesn’t get out of hand and control you.

It is about treating people the way you would want to be treated.

It is about doing the tasks you don’t want to do, but you know will help you.

Discipline is about facing your fears so you can conquer them.

Discipline means taking the hard road—the uphill road—to do what is right for you and for others.

So often, the easy path calls us to be weak.

For that moment, to break down another time—to give in to desire and short-term gratification.

Discipline will not allow that.

Discipline calls for strength and fortitude.

It won’t accept weakness.

It won’t tolerate a breakdown in will.

Discipline can seem like your worst enemy.

But, in reality, it is your best friend.
