4 Keys to Being More Disciplined

Discipline is a PRACTICE, not a personality type . . . 

When you think of a disciplined person, what sort of traits do you think of? Maybe someone who is always on time, maybe that friend who gets up at 5am rain or shine for their workout, maybe your spouse who religiously sticks to their budget every month, or maybe that gal on the gram who posts her outfit everyday without fail.  All of those are examples of a practice of discipline.  

What I want you to notice and acknowledge for yourself is that there is definitely SOMETHING that you are already very disciplined about - even if it's something as "small" as just brushing your teeth everyday, you absolutely have habits and routines that you are disciplined about performing. This is proof that you too can be disciplined about whatever action you want, YOU could be the friend who gets her steps in everyday no matter what, you just need to know how.  

And that's the key here - discipline can be practiced and learned, it's not something you either are or are not.  The most disciplined people you know don't possess some magical skill or trait that you don't have, what they've done is simply organized their life in such a way that it's easy for them to be disciplined.  The 4 Keys to developing discipline are:

1. Thoughts

2. Environment

3. Accountability

4. Ownership

It all boils down to this: discipline is really just self-control of thought and action.  I mean think about it; when you discipline your child for doing something you told them not to, what are you doing? You're teaching them self-control of thought and action.   If they can learn it, so can you!! 

We ALL have something we'd like to be more disciplined, and consistent about, so I encourage you to share this episode with friends!  And if you like this kind of information, you might LOVE the Healthy Mind, Healthy Body Program and Membership!

Ditch the Diets and Finally Make Peace with Food

If you struggle with yo-yo dieting then you know how hard it is to make any real lasting change.  Unfortunately most women get stuck in the belief that being on a diet is the only way to lose weight and get healthy, and when they inevitably fail they’ve destroyed their self esteem, destroyed their relationship with food, and get stuck in a guilt/shame spiral that starts the whole process over again.  

If you don’t understand how reprogram your mind that is sabotaging you, and reprogram your body for health, you’ll never make lasting progress.  

That’s why I created the Healthy Mind, Healthy Body Program; to teach you how to make a real, lasting transformation in your Mind AND Body.
