Publisher's summary

Have you set goals for yourself, but was unable to motivate yourself to achieve it?

There is no way to measure the loss of opportunities caused by a lack of self-discipline in your life. Your inability to control your weight might seem like just a long term health issue, but it might have also thrown off life partners that might otherwise have been interested. Your lack of control over spending might seem like just a way to get into credit card debt, but it might also be the reason for increased weight gain, and tensions with your spouse.

Understanding that you have no control at this moment over your impulses is the first step. Once you accept this fact, you are ready to tackle them with the advanced techniques in this audiobook. Understand, that you will need to be stern with yourself when you get into situations where these demons are likely to emerge. These can be times when you are going to eat a second or third helping of food. There can be all those times when you know you should start working, but you put it off to do something more interesting - like talking with a colleague.

Get your life organized with principles of self-discipline that will serve you forever. When you start focusing on some areas of your life, you will notice that it improves other unrelated areas in your life.

Breaking Bad Habits

Just by looking at the art cover for this audiobook, one might believe it was about "kung fu" or "martial arts," but that isn't the case. It's just a self-discipline self-help audiobook that's meant to help you to replace bad habits with good ones.

The audiobook book begins with a short introduction, followed by 9 chapters, and ends with a conclusion. The author wastes no time explaining that our inner demons have prevented us from achieving success. The only way to get full control of your life is to break the bad habits that have been holding us back. To break bad habits, you need to have good manners. You need to be purpose driven, be more productive, and use proper time management.

One of the many things I need to improve on in my life is my self-discipline, which was why I was interested in reviewing this audiobook. The author wastes no time laying down the facts about why we are self-sabotaging ourselves with bad habit loops, and gives simple advice on how to replace the those habits with good ones.

Overall, Self-Discipline is a well-written audiobook that is short and to the point.

Most of the information in this book is logical.

Be stern with yourself. Do not procrastinate, if you start a project, do it now, don't put it off for tomorrow, and do it to the best of your ability. (Learn about time management.)

This book mainly deals with helping you to accomplish the job at hand. It helps you to understand why some people have bad behavior, rudeness, and bad manners when you are trying to achieve your goals. This is when you need to use good behavior and discipline with those you work with.
Discipline is set by oneself to be responsible for what you do in life to reach your goals.
He talks about habits- good and bad. How to get rid of your bad habits and create good ones so you can achieve your goals.

He covers the subject of stress, which is something we all live with, and explains how to deal with it, showing that it's as simple as taking the time to meditate.

Financial habits can also cause stress. He gives you good and logical advise on how to make good decisions on how not to spend your money on a whim, to buy only what you absolutely need. The best way to keep yourself from buying what I call nick-nacks is to say to yourself' "Do I really need this or that?".

He also delves into positive thinking- There are books you can read to help you become more positive in life and make wise choices so you can create good habits. Repent that which causes bad habits. Be optimistic and practice positive thinking, this can help do away with negativity.

To change instilled propensities you should initially comprehend the why and how so as to make (and adhere to) the progressions you want. The writer makes it a point to have their perusers understand that creation significant life changes require some serious energy and industriousness. That you ought not to hope to simply snap into another method for being. That comprehension and empathy truly appear through in his composition.

George Pain additionally plunges into the more profound mental examples that can clarify why such a large number of are not exceeding expectations to where they should be.
