Self-Discipline.....

Some people have it and some people don't.  I am one of those people that don't.  Is it genetic?  Was it how I was raised? No! I'm not blaming my mother.  Ha Ha!  But what causes people to be more inclined to have it over others.  I desperately want it.  I have so much that I could get accomplished if I had it.  Do YOU have self-discipline?  How can I create it in me?  What can I do to instill it inside myself?  Any suggestions?  I need HELP!!!

Seeing the differences in my kids, I think people are just wired differently. You could set small, realistic goals for yourself and give yourself a reward when you make it there. Pay yourself when you do the work - ironically, that takes discipline....

@ Tonja-thx for the suggestion.

I need all the help I can get too! I do find that keeping it simple and having smaller chunks of attainable goals seems to help me. That's what my new blog is all about (although, I tend to goof even there). Blessings!

Self discipline is something that I strive for. I think it definately comes easier when it was instilled as a child, but even then, we have to keep our eyes focused on Jesus, the one who can help keep us steady.

I do have self discipline when I absolutely need it. I gave up eating processed sugar and chocolate. Those were 2 of my favorite things.

I don't know how you get self dicipline and I only have it when I really want it.
