  Speaker 4: That's all you ever talked about, That's all you ever

  Speaker 4: Hoping that someone was just going to hand you the

  Speaker 7: What you need is self discipline.
• 0:35
  Speaker 8: Self discipline, as the very name implies, comes from the
• 0:39
  Speaker 8: self you. It comes when you make a decision to
• 0:43
  Speaker 8: be disciplined, when you make a decision to be better,
• 0:49
  Speaker 8: when you make a decision to do more.
• 0:52
  Speaker 7: And be more.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: You can set yourself a goal that you can actake,
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: and there's not going to be much glory in it
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: to begin with, because if you're not in very good shape,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: the goal that you could attain tomorrow isn't very glorious.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: But it's a hell of a lot better than nothing,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: and it beats the hell out of bitterness, and it's
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: way better than blaming someone else. It's way less dangerous,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: and you could do it. And what's cool about it,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: it's one step on a very long journey, and it
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: starts to compound on.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: The minute you start thinking I don't want to do this,
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: the minute that feeling creeps in, that's the time you're
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: having a test. The minute you feel the ache of
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: I'd rather do something else, I'd rather do anything else
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: than this, that's the test. The minute you train yourself
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: to say this is my opportunity is the minute you
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: go from loser to fucking winner. And this is a skill,
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: this is something you practice.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: We're all being tested in life.
• 1:54
  Speaker 6: And guess what this is?
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: What test can't seat on.

  Speaker 9: Some much.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: This cure you have to do, get your deal with delight,
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: and the only.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: Way to overcome it is for you and you.

  Speaker 3: to do it. Let your work get your opportunity, Let
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: your work get your praise, Let your work open up doors,
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: Let your work get people paying attention. Let your work

• 2:35
  Speaker 3: and you got work.
• 2:36
  Speaker 10: Promise yourself you'll lesson, do it and tell it.
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: Make the sense.

  Speaker 10: until you.
• 2:42
  Speaker 11: Develop the skills.
• 2:43
  Speaker 10: Never give up an till however long. That is, step
• 2:49
  Speaker 10: by step, piece by piece, gold cord it, don't mess
• 2:51
  Speaker 10: a chance, row and resolve that you'll pay the price
• 2:56
  Speaker 10: until learn, change, grow come.
• 3:00
  Speaker 7: It's called a life changing day. The day you say enough.
• 3:09
  Speaker 12: Some of you don't even realize you have unfinished business.
• 3:14
  Speaker 12: You need to go back where you left off with
• 3:16
  Speaker 12: a new perspective. Go back to the gym, go back
• 3:21
  Speaker 12: to the trying board, go back to the business, go
• 3:24
  Speaker 12: back to the relationship, go back to the burning building.
• 3:28
  Speaker 12: You have unfinished business. All you got to do and
• 3:32
  Speaker 12: show up with a new game plan and a new perspective.
• 3:36
  Speaker 10: When you get better, everything will get better for you.
• 3:42
  Speaker 10: And that's where I picked up that phrase for things
• 3:44
  Speaker 10: to change, you've got to change. You don't have to
• 3:46
  Speaker 10: change the marketplace. You don't have to change the marketing plan.
• 3:51
  Speaker 10: You don't have to change the economy. You don't have
• 3:54
  Speaker 10: to change countries. You don't have to change circumstance. Answers
• 4:00
  Speaker 10: out there all you've got to do is look within
• 4:02
  Speaker 10: and see if you can change yourself for the better.
• 4:05
  Speaker 10: And as you change, things will start to change for you.
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: You gotta be willing to do with ninety eight percent
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: of the people in this world are unwilling to do.
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: You gotta eat differently, you gotta work differently, you gotta
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: think differently, you gotta talk differently, you gotta walk differently.
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: If you want elevation, if you want next level, if
• 4:28
  Speaker 6: you want to see this thing differently, this year, everything
• 4:33
  Speaker 6: you do has to say.
• 4:35
  Speaker 12: You won't meet that rest.
• 4:36
  Speaker 8: Chances are you will realize that the desire to rest
• 4:40
  Speaker 8: was just weakness. It was just the desire to take
• 4:44
  Speaker 8: the path of least resistance, the downhill path, the easy path.
• 4:50
  Speaker 12: And by simply.
• 4:51
  Speaker 8: Going through the motions, you overcame that path, and you
• 4:55
  Speaker 8: stayed on the righteous path, the discipline path.
• 5:00
  Speaker 7: You stayed on the war half.
• 5:02
  Speaker 9: And so if you can just mean again to take
• 5:05
  Speaker 9: one step, slowly moving towards your dream, I promise you
• 5:10
  Speaker 9: that thing you want to achieve, it's not going to
• 5:13
  Speaker 9: be nearly as difficult as what you think it is.
• 5:16
  Speaker 7: It does not matter how slowly you go, as long
• 5:20
  Speaker 7: as you do not stop. You do not have to
• 5:25
  Speaker 7: be great to start, but you do have to start
• 5:29
  Speaker 7: to be great.
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: I want you to focus on what's gonna make you
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: better and not make you weak. I want you to
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: focus on moving forward and not moving back. I want
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: you to focus on making your life greater and not
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: making it weaker. I want you to focus on doing
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: something that's gonna make other people better. I want you
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: to shine right. I want you to lift people up.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: I want you to stay productive. I want you to
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: stay strong, and I want you to cheap live in
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: the life that you've been given.
• 5:57
  Speaker 13: If you quit, if you never start coming, if you
• 6:01
  Speaker 13: never take that first step, you'll never get there and
• 6:05
  Speaker 13: you'll forever live in regret.
• 6:14
  Speaker 11: The obstacles to self discipline might seem like a big
• 6:17
  Speaker 11: load to handle, and they are. Most people never break
• 6:20
  Speaker 11: through any of them, and it reflects in their lives. You, yourself,
• 6:24
  Speaker 11: might be wondering if it's beyond your reach or capabilities.
• 6:30
  Speaker 11: I really capable of breaking through and developing the willpower
• 6:35
  Speaker 11: I need to do what I need to do. As
• 6:38
  Speaker 11: the saying goes, whether you think you can or you can't,
• 6:41
  Speaker 11: you're right when it comes to developing willpower. The most
• 6:46
  Speaker 11: important factor might not be your mental or physical abilities,
• 6:50
  Speaker 11: or the range of what you can accomplish. Rather, it
• 6:53
  Speaker 11: may simply be your belief that you can develop willpower.
• 6:57
  Speaker 11: A study by researcher Yernica Job examined university students over
• 7:03
  Speaker 11: a single scholastic term. Job asked the students to evaluate
• 7:07
  Speaker 11: themselves on their ability to maintain willpower over the course
• 7:10
  Speaker 11: of a given task, whether they need to take a
• 7:13
  Speaker 11: break after a run of tough work, or whether their
• 7:15
  Speaker 11: endurance fueled itself and allowed them to keep going across
• 7:19
  Speaker 11: the board. The students who believed that their willpower was
• 7:22
  Speaker 11: unlimited did better in several measures. They regulated their activities better,
• 7:26
  Speaker 11: kept procrastination at bay, got better grades, and were even
• 7:30
  Speaker 11: better at eating right and maintaining physical health. On the
• 7:34
  Speaker 11: other side, students who said they needed to recharge themselves
• 7:38
  Speaker 11: from time to time were especially beset by procrastination, often
• 7:43
  Speaker 11: made poor dietary decisions, and found themselves easily distracted. They
• 7:49
  Speaker 11: even spent more money theoretically while they were distracting themselves
• 7:52
  Speaker 11: with online destinations. Jobs results indicated that those students who
• 7:57
  Speaker 11: were convinced of their own abilities and really bel leaved
• 8:00
  Speaker 11: they had more willpower actually did their self messaging turned
• 8:05
  Speaker 11: out to be a crucial element in their superior performance,
• 8:09
  Speaker 11: to the point where it couldn't simply be coincidence. Score
• 8:14
  Speaker 11: another point for the placebo effect. This is great news
• 8:19
  Speaker 11: because it implies that although building willpower is a challenge,
• 8:23
  Speaker 11: a huge part of the solution is simply believing that
• 8:28
  Speaker 11: you can do it. We have exactly as much willpower
• 8:31
  Speaker 11: as we think we do. Building self discipline is your
• 8:35
  Speaker 11: choice and yours alone. It's all up to you. Nobody
• 8:39
  Speaker 11: and nothing else have as much influence in the attainment
• 8:41
  Speaker 11: of your goals. It doesn't matter how your brain is
• 8:44
  Speaker 11: wired or where you are oriented with regards to time.
• 8:47
  Speaker 11: What overrides those is your belief in yourself. Ultimately, this
• 8:53
  Speaker 11: ends up being a good thing because it places the
• 8:56
  Speaker 11: power in your hands. Whether you can or cannot be
• 9:00
  Speaker 11: the disciplined is up to you. For some, this is
• 9:03
  Speaker 11: a freeing thought to determine one's behavior and actions. By
• 9:07
  Speaker 11: producing your own incentive and making self discipline its own reward,
• 9:12
  Speaker 11: you'll see positive effects unveil themselves on a daily, gradual basis.
• 9:17
  Speaker 11: These benefits include the following, which you can also feel
• 9:21
  Speaker 11: free to fracture into your pleasure. Principal cost benefit analysis
• 9:27
  Speaker 11: avoiding temptation. The self discipline mind knows that fighting temptation
• 9:32
  Speaker 11: is a herculean task. Even the strongest minded person might
• 9:37
  Speaker 11: feel a tinge of enticement when they're walking past the
• 9:41
  Speaker 11: window of an ice cream shop where there's a huge
• 9:45
  Speaker 11: color display of a towering Sunday hanging in the window.
• 9:49
  Speaker 11: Unless you hate ice cream, you'll feel a twinge. But
• 9:52
  Speaker 11: what self discipline helps you do is avoid the temptation
• 9:54
  Speaker 11: pass the shop by without feeling the need to indulge.
• 9:57
  Speaker 11: This is because self discipline and helps you control and
• 10:01
  Speaker 11: direct yourself. When there are clashing internal forces at work,
• 10:05
  Speaker 11: your mind won't focus on the deprivation aspect. It'll concentrate
• 10:10
  Speaker 11: on the good you're producing more life satisfaction. Those who
• 10:15
  Speaker 11: practice self discipline frequently report that they're happier than people
• 10:21
  Speaker 11: who don't. This reality flies in the face of the
• 10:25
  Speaker 11: idea that self discipline means not having any fun. What
• 10:30
  Speaker 11: you're trying to get on the pathway of self control
• 10:34
  Speaker 11: will be a thousand times more gratifying than the rewards
• 10:38
  Speaker 11: of an immediate thrill. It's just going to take a
• 10:40
  Speaker 11: little longer patients can be frustrating when you live in
• 10:44
  Speaker 11: a society like we do, where instant pleasure is relatively
• 10:49
  Speaker 11: easy to pursue, it can really be hard to walk
• 10:52
  Speaker 11: a line of restraint and control, especially when you have
• 10:55
  Speaker 11: friends who constantly live for the moment. But what you're
• 10:58
  Speaker 11: after is bigger than that. I want to create a
• 11:00
  Speaker 11: more satisfying and contented lifetime. That's something that only self
• 11:04
  Speaker 11: discipline and continued focus will bring. When it does, it'll
• 11:07
  Speaker 11: be much more meaningful and satisfying than those brief as
• 11:12
  Speaker 11: elated diversion. You do more of what you want. On
• 11:15
  Speaker 11: a similar note, those who take up a life of
• 11:18
  Speaker 11: self discipline are often imagined as not doing things. They're
• 11:21
  Speaker 11: not up to date on the current hit TV shows,
• 11:23
  Speaker 11: they're not hanging out with their bar friends on a
• 11:25
  Speaker 11: nightly basis. They're not traveling to Fort Lauderdale on spring break.
• 11:29
  Speaker 11: In some way or another, they're perceived as being left out,
• 11:33
  Speaker 11: but that's only according to other people's concept of fun.
• 11:36
  Speaker 11: In reality, the self disciplined person is giving themselves more
• 11:40
  Speaker 11: opportunity to do what they actually want to do. This
• 11:43
  Speaker 11: comes about in two ways. First, you have the ability
• 11:48
  Speaker 11: to position yourself for success and do what needs to
• 11:51
  Speaker 11: be done. This leaves time for the interest you want
• 11:54
  Speaker 11: to pursue, and it can even be just a lazy
• 11:58
  Speaker 11: afternoon of television. Second, you have the discipline to do
• 12:03
  Speaker 11: challenging things that you want. You might want to climb
• 12:07
  Speaker 11: a set of mountains or run a marathon. Self discipline
• 12:11
  Speaker 11: is how you do them. They're doing activities that are
• 12:14
  Speaker 11: rewarding and riching, and they're doing them because they've disciplined
• 12:20
  Speaker 11: themselves to be able to do them and appreciate them.
• 12:24
  Speaker 11: You gain ultimate freedom. Actually, you're more in the moment.
• 12:30
  Speaker 11: Taking the road to self discipline is a constant process
• 12:33
  Speaker 11: that frequently requires you to make choices. You need to
• 12:38
  Speaker 11: be fully aware of the decisions that can help you
• 12:40
  Speaker 11: the most. Sometimes opportunities will arise out of nowhere, a
• 12:46
  Speaker 11: chance to talk with someone who's been down your path
• 12:49
  Speaker 11: before and can give you some advice or support, or
• 12:52
  Speaker 11: an activity like yoga that can help you develop more
• 12:55
  Speaker 11: mental stamina and concentration. These opportunities seem to rise for
• 13:00
  Speaker 11: people who are working on self discipline, but it's not magic.
• 13:05
  Speaker 11: It's because you're more aware and attuned to things that
• 13:10
  Speaker 11: will help you get to where you want to go.
• 13:13
  Speaker 11: The self disciplined mind isn't shut off, far from it.
• 13:19
  Speaker 11: It's looking for and recognizing those chances all the time.
• 13:23
  Speaker 11: You're more aware of what's happening around you. You're not
• 13:26
  Speaker 11: missing anything, you're just making a different choice setting boundaries.
• 13:33
  Speaker 11: Chances are you have at least one or two good
• 13:36
  Speaker 11: friends or relations who will be thrilled to support you
• 13:39
  Speaker 11: in any way they can. But let's face it, there
• 13:42
  Speaker 11: will also be a few of them who will try
• 13:45
  Speaker 11: no wing or otherwise and knock you off your path
• 13:49
  Speaker 11: to self discipline. Self discipline helps you identify those conflicts
• 13:53
  Speaker 11: before they begin and can make you stand your ground.
• 13:57
  Speaker 11: It can also build your resolve to resist the pleadings
• 14:00
  Speaker 11: and guilt tripping of others who might not be that
• 14:04
  Speaker 11: understanding of your goal to improve yourself knowing yourself. Finally,
• 14:09
  Speaker 11: self discipline is one of the best ways to find
• 14:12
  Speaker 11: out who you really are and what you really value
• 14:15
  Speaker 11: in a real world setting. At times, our situations can
• 14:20
  Speaker 11: seem so bothersome or troubling that we can't imagine any
• 14:23
  Speaker 11: course other than escape. But in those scenarios, you're not
• 14:28
  Speaker 11: just escaping hardship or the world you're also escaping yourself.
• 14:33
  Speaker 11: Self discipline is a means to reject the traits of
• 14:37
  Speaker 11: reaction and retreat. It gives you something to actively work
• 14:42
  Speaker 11: on every day and forces you to make decisions and
• 14:45
  Speaker 11: take actions based on what you really need. Through that process,
• 14:49
  Speaker 11: you will learn more about yourself than you ever had before.
• 14:52
  Speaker 11: You'll see why you made certain decisions in the past,
• 14:55
  Speaker 11: and you'll understand what kind of person you really are.
