13 Smart Psychology Hacks on Building Self Discipline

| Thread
Self-discipline gives the necessary direction to life,

And helps an individual to enjoy the desired success.
Here are 11 tips on building self-discipline:

1. Reduce the number of goals
2. Start small
3. Avoid Temptation
4. Identify your goals
5. Track progress
6. Visualization
7. Be consistent
8. Sleep enough and eat well
9. Make mistakes
10. Praise yourself
11. Avoid Perfection
Building Discipline is an acquired trait
and learned behavior.

Practice regularly to make healthy choices in life:
1. Reduce the number of goals you’re aiming for

If you have too many things you’re planning to achieve,

you are chasing goals you care little about.

The more goals you pursue,

the lesser your chances of accomplishing any of them.
2. Start small

The more abrupt the change,

the harder your mind finds accepting it.

Small changes serve two purposes:

1. it allows you enough time to digest what you’re going through.

2. it gives you a first-hand experience of reality.
3. Removing Temptation

Instead of keeping temptations around
and trying to resist them,

why not remove the temptations in the first place?

This makes self-discipline effortless,

as the decision is automatic.
4. Define your wants and identify your goals

If you have a particular desire in mind,

it can act as a motivational tool to build self-discipline.

Be clear in your wants
so that you can effectively move towards the desired outcome.
5. Track progress

Find a way to track the progress you’re making.

A habit becomes easier to develop
when you associate a real-life visible thing with it.
6. Visualization

Imagined memories can become real
with the help of visualization techniques.

It helps to overcome the fear of failure,

as the brain gives our body the necessary push to take a step forward.
Once you start visualizing that you have achieved greater discipline

and are now near your targets the mind
will feel the satisfaction of a job well done.
7. Start with small things

The first step toward success is getting started.

If you have a small goal in front of you it looks attainable,

and you can easily motivate yourself to complete it successfully.
8. Be consistent in your efforts

If you are serious in your attempts to build self-discipline
you will have to be consistent in your efforts.

Be committed because it takes a lot of hard work
and determination to build self-discipline.
9. Sleep enough and eat well

If you’re not well-rested, your brain will struggle to make the right decisions.

Poor eating habits will lead to the same outcome.

Undereating and overeating will hamper your daily actions,

just like poor and excess sleep will.
10. It is OK to make mistakes

Failure and disappointments are part of life,
accept that you are human and will mistakes.

The key is to stand up again with more willpower
and step forward despite the blunder.

Accept them and forgive yourself if you want to build self-discipline
11. Praise yourself

Praise yourself if you are looking for ways to build self-discipline.

Encourage yourself so that you can become better

and can handle the task easily from now onwards.
12. Set goals and make a plan

- Set definite goals,
- Contemplate your action plan, and
- Let it in motion.

Remember once you have set goals
it becomes a bit easier with time to follow them.
13. Don't Expect Perfection

Don't expect yourself to perform perfectly every time.

If you hold yourself to an unachievable standard of perfection,

you'll only succeed in making yourself feel inadequate.

When you fail,

forgive yourself, get up, and move forward.
Conclusion:

Self-discipline is like a muscle.

It doesn't explode overnight.

It grows over time with consistent work.

If you stay focused, you will grow.
