If there is a single element for ensuring success
That element can be summed up in one word
By it's very nature runs opposing to the human nature
Which gravitates towards indiscipline and carelessness
We must drill into our habits that will cause us to obey thoughts
And take actions that will lead us towards our desired objectives
We must bring in control all thoughts and actions
That prevent us from moving in the right direction
But this is easier said than done
It has more to do with action than talk
No amount of positive affirmations
Or motivational and hidden tapes and seminars will make us
Anyone can set desired goals
And have the motivation to achieve them
However, what really can take you to your goal?
This may mean working consistently for long hours
Doing tasks that you would rather not do
But are essential in attainment of your goals
Forgoing or putting on hold current comforts and pleasures
The keyword here is training
It is in the area of thoughts that behaviors are born
And which in turn lead us to act in one way and not the other
If we can have the right way and take the right actions
It is the latter aspect of this process that will determine
Whether we are disciplined or undisciplined; whether we succeed or fail
And again, if there is a single element for ensuring success
That element can be summed up in one word: DISCIPLINE
