Key Points on Simple Ways 

Change Your Identity 

I know it sounds like a lot and maybe even too much, but it honestly starts here. We need to change our identity, what we believe we have and can achieve. If you don't think self-discipline is something you have and cannot build it, then it's something you really can't have it, you. Self-discipline is a skill and an action verb that requires you to put in the work. If we change our mindset so that we CAN build this skill, we will become more resilient, persevere through tough times and become stronger overall.

Start Small and Consistent

The best way to build self-discipline and apply it, especially when we need it most, is by starting small and staying consistent. You can do this by pairing self-discipline with your daily habits. Our habits are actions we do subconsciously, so when you pair it with a habit, it would be easier to develop and stick to self-discipline when you pair it with a habit.
