It's all mind over matter.
If you don't mind, it does matter.
I don't mind and you don't matter.
Whether you think you can or you think you can't, you're right.
The distance between dreams and reality is
called discipline. Mind control is the result of self-discipline and habit.
If you don't control what you think, you can't control what you do.
Discipline is doing what needs to be done, even if you don't want to do it.
You can never conquer the mountain. You can only conquer yourself. You either control your mind or it controls you. You cannot control your circumstances, but you can control your character. A
disciplined mind leads to
happiness, and an undisciplined mind leads to
suffering. No one notices your tears,
no one notices your sadness, and no one notices your pain. But they all
notice your mistakes. God helps those who help themselves. Envy is ignorance; imitation is suicide. Self-help is the best help. The price of excellence is discipline. The cost of
mediocrity is disappointment.
Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishments. Self-discipline is a key ingredient in success. The first step to getting what you want is to have the courage to get rid of what you don't. Overcome addictions and weaknesses. The discipline you enforce today determines the success you'll enjoy tomorrow.
To handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart.
Listening to your head may lead to more tangible success, but not following your
heart increases your risk of regret.
We need to learn that our actions do affect other people. Words and hearts should be handled with care, because words, when spoken, and hearts, when broken, are the hardest things to repair.
Discipline leads to habits,
habits lead to consistency and
consistency leads to growth. Rule your mind, or your mind will rule you.
