From Will Power to Self-Discipline…
In a previous article, I outlined some tips to develop will power…
Today we’re going to move to discuss Self-Discipline, what it’s and how can you develop it. I started to read more on this topic after receiving a question from one of The Success Elixir Blog valuable readers, his name is Poonam. He asked this:
Kaled,

Regards,
Poonam.
And here was my reply:

You’re welcome Poonam. Follow this link for more tips on self confidence/esteem:
http://successelixir.net/category/self-esteem-confidenceFor will power, I’ll recommend you go through this:

I told him to read more about improving self esteem & confidence on this blog archive. For will power, I found some good articles at Steve Pavlina’s blog (highly recommended). I saw that Steve represented will-power as a pillar out of 5 pillars of self-discipline.
- Acceptance,
- Willpower,
- Hard Work,
- Industry, and
- Persistence
I have found that self-discipline is a million-dollar habit you literally need to have. Better than short-injections of motivation, much better. It can be learned and practiced. So, how to have more self-discipline?
Just follow Steve on this series to start learning self-discipline:

to your success!

Hey Ibrahim,
Here are the potential answers,
1. I will recommend you go through the recommended series again in the link above. In the 5th pillar “Persistence”, Steve explains exactly how to stay in motion and maintain/grow your level of willpower & self-discipline, even when you feel down or unmotivated.
2. While the general theme is the same, strategies & tactics used are different in the 3 books. For example, the 11 Principles Package discuss success laws. Such as the LOA, TEAR manifestation method, Law of Duality…
All in short, to-the-point formats with exercises on each principles to apply and see instant results. I like it much.
While the other 2 books you mentioned are a must-read in my opinion, they go into loooooooong details and need kind of super-duper clear vision (especially the 7 habits). They’re kind of “reference” books to expand your awareness and success philosophies.
If you want a much practical guide, something that super-charge you (not confuse you
), I would recommend you invest your next $47 in the banabue multimedia course. I have just finished reading my copy.
It contains a PDF manual, audio lesson on each law, a workbook for exercises. You can give it a try, it’s backed by a strong guarantee.
