help you by " self-discipline the golden key of success"- discipline one



your ability to develop the habit of self-discipline will contribute more to your success than any other quality of character. (brian tracy)


 
There are nine disciplines you can develop that will improve every area of your life. It turns out that every exercise of self-discipline strengthens every other discipline at the same time, just as every weakness in self-discipline weakens you in other disciplines as well.
1-     The Discipline of Clear Thinking

Thomas Edison once said, “Thinking is the hardest discipline of all.”

It has been said that there are three types of people. There are those who think
(The small minority);
there are those that think they think, then there are those who would rather die than think.

        A) Take time to think though the critical issues and problems in your life. Put aside long, unbroken chunks of time, thirty, sixty and then ninety minutes.

Peter Drucker said that, “Fast people decisions are usually wrong people
 
decisions.” In addition, fast decisions with regard to your family, career, money or

 any other major issue are usually wrong decisions.

B) Sit quietly for 30-60 minutes to think. Practice solitude on a regular basis. 

 “Go into the silence"

C) Whenever you practice solitude for more than thirty minutes,
you activate your super conscious mind and trigger your intuition.  You get it right from the “still, small, silent voice within.”

D) To think better, take a pad of paper and write down every

detail of the problem situation you are facing. Sometimes, the right thing to 

 do immerges as you write down the details

E) Aristotle once said that wisdom (The ability to make good decisions) is a

combination of experience plus reection.  The more time that you take to think

about your experiences, the more vital lessons you will gain from them.

F) Go for a walk or exercise for 30-60 minutes. Very often when you are exercising,

you will get insights or ideas that help you to think better and make better decisions.

G) Talk your situation over with someone else who you like and trust, and who is not

emotionally involved. Very often, a different perspective can totally change your viewpoint.

H) Always ask, “What are my assumptions?” What is it that you are assuming to be

  true about the situation?

I) What if your assumptions were wrong? What if you were preceded on the basis of

false information?

Always be open to the possibility that you could be completely wrong in your 
  
current course of action. Be open to doing something completely different.
