Achieve your goals
kog_ind asked:


I have always been raised in a very motivational environment. I’ve always had all sorts of support and encouragement from my family and close friends to help me achieve my goals and take pretty good care of myself.

However, now I’m out on my own, and most of those friends and close family ties have faded. I’ve got nothing but myself to keep tabs on myself, and I’ve come to a screeching halt to say the least.

Now I’ve read all the literature on motivation, listening to all the tapes, been to the lectures, and even given some myself. I know all about journals and setting goals. However, no matter how much of a plan I put in place or how many goals I set, I don’t seem to have the self-disciple to follow my own system! I work very well in a group setting, but once I’m on my own I seem to lose all my steam.

I have the motivation to set goals, but not the discipline to follow through with them or make progress. Aside from becoming a hermit, how could I learn self-discipline?
