Self Discipline
The Ultimate Path to Prosperity In Any Area
of Life!
by
10th
Degree Black Belt, Dr. Stan Harris
I just successfully defended my Martial Arts title July 3, 2005 at the"Battle
of Harrisburg." I won my first title 20 years ago, and now @ 45
years of age one of my fellow blackbelt friends of 36 years asked me a
question, "how do you keep doing it, after all of these years how do you
stay fresh? Well, it's not talent, like most of the world is after, but
rather a secret weapon that most have forgotten about called Self
Discipline, or good character! My dojo (place to practice) has a motto, "We
forge our bodies on the fires of our wills." In essence, our minds
make our bodies do what we want, not vice versa. Every great athlete
understands this, and the winners practice it persistently! They push
themselves to do things that they don't fell like doing, the body says
"enough," the pain says "quit now, and I'll stop," the will says, "no!" Diamonds
are nothing more than chunks of coal that have responded properly to
discipline! My oldest son Joshua recently graduated from Marine
Boot Camp with honors, my lovely daughter Christina is working on her
Doctorate degree and something struck me that I had never thought of before.
Without exception everyone that I personally know who has attained, or is in
line to reach some type or level of success, has a background in some
discipline. Let me explain, they either did (not just played) Sports, were
in the Military, or took some form of Martial Arts training which we call
Discipline. When I meet a serious Martial Artist, I don't ask what style,
but rather what discipline they practice!
Conquering self!
I have lived by the philosophy (sometimes I fail) that a great old orator
said, "The greatest of all victories, is the conquest of ones own
self." My good friend Les Brown (whom I have shared the platform
with) says he often askes his audiences, how many of you know that you could
do more, or be more if you had more self discipline, every hand usually goes
up, although some heads go down. Solomon, the wisest man in the world said,
He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he that ruleth his
spirit, than he that taketh a city! Another words, the person who has self
discipline is mightier than the greatest General that cannot control his own
passions! You see habits are usually too small to be noticed, until they're
too big to be overcome, however, a person working on self discipline will
nip bad habits in the bud, before they grow. "You must be willing to pay for
your dreams with self discipline, so you wont have to live with nightmares
of regret." Dr.S.Harris
Every Failure or Problem has a root
You see, just about every failure, or problem is in essence a self
discipline problem! The only thing keeping me back from being or
doing more is my own lack of self discipline. We were not born winners or
losers, but rather Choosers, chose to win through self discipline! The
enemy, is in-a-me! Did you get that? No one can stop you, but you. The
African proverb says, If there's no enemy within, the enemy without can do
you no harm." Don't play the blame game! Take responsibility, be a real
man/woman, it's okay to be honest with yourself. Stop looking at the fruit,
check the root. Stop looking at the symptoms, look at the root cause! Being
Overweight (with a few exceptions), a lot of physical, social, marital,
relationship, business, financial problems etc. can be traced to a lack of
discipline in some area. As kids we mistakenly thought that maturity comes
with age, but I tell young men that "mustache, and muscles don't make the
man." Young ladies, "hips and curves don't make the woman." Maturity is when
you get to the place (not necessarily age) that you do by your self what at
one time someone had to tell you to do. It's when you do by your self
(self-discipline) what at one time a boss had to make you do. It's when you
go from the baby stage of being undisciplined (no control over self or
faculties), past the Teen stage of having discipline (ability to do what
your told) to the adult stage of being Self disciplined. I tell young
people all the time, you have it easy now, all you have to do is what you
are told, but one day, you will have to be the one telling yourself what to
do, and then following thru without any outside help! Our nation has a lack
of discipline problem, our Men, Women, and young people all have one major
problem-lack of self discipline! Successful people discipline themselves to
do daily, what ordinary people only do occasionally!
If Networking is not working for you, you
need to work on you!
When I started in the powerful industry of Network Marketing. I shot to the
top of my companies pay scale (my annual income, became my monthly income),
I was awarded a company bonus car (Black Lincoln Navigator) as well as many
free cruises and awards. I was asked a question, "How did you do it?" Well I
first confessed I didn't do it, God gave me the wisdom,
strength, etc. however it was also because I recruited a team of
disciplined, thus very influential people. I want you to understand
something, and never, ever, under any circumstances forget it, "we may not
have it altogether, but together, we have it all." ( author unknown) To be
successful in this industry, you need a good team (T= Together, E=Each,
A=Accomplishes, M=More). My secret, I had surrounded my self with a team of
disciplined, thus very influential people! Don't kid yourself, if you can't
influence yourself, listen to yourself, or discipline yourself, how can you
expect to influence someone else successfully? That's why my friend Jim Rohn
(whom I have shared the platform with, and taken a personal trip together,
with he, and his mentor Bill Bailey) says, "If you work on your business,
you can make some money, if you work on yourself, you can make a fortune."
The most powerful system (S=Save, Y=Your, S=Self, T=Time, E=Energy, M=Money)
of distribution of goods and services that people want and need can be found
in good Network Marketing companies. If Networking is not working for you,
you need to work on you! (contact me for my article, and CD on, When
Networking is notworking) The problem has always been that people get
excited, get started, get rejected, and give up eventually or just doggy
paddle in the shallow income, instead of diving into the deep end and
swimming with high income. If you will discipline yourself to listen/watch
CD's/DVD's, (These things cost, but they pay for themselves) read good
books, articles like this one (smile), attend great events like
Street Smart Live, Audio Fire, or one of my "BreakThrough" Training's, etc. (Empty your wallet into your mind, and
your mind will fill your wallet-B.Franklin) and most importantly,
implement (practice which takes discipline) what you learn, success
is inevitable, you will eventually travel the beaches of the world as you
deserve!
The Silver Bullet of Success
If you are looking for the silver bullet of success-
here it is- every great Soldier, Athlete, Statesman, Actor, Preacher,
Speaker, Network Marketer, etc. did so because behind the
scenes, they sowed the seeds of self discipline, and reaped the Harvest of
success! Self-respect is the fruit of self-discipline; your
sense of dignity grows with the ability to say no to your passions. Abraham
Lincoln said it best, " I will prepare myself, and my time will come." The
more self disciplined you become, the "luckier" you will get! Learn to make yourself do what others won't, and you will soon have what
others don't! (wow, that's good, read that again) Learn to
make yourself do what others won't, and you will soon have what others
don't!Just like in your business, It's the start that stops
most people, don't let the start, stop you, get started right now!
We don't need to learn anything else, you don't need a new way to
recruit etc. we just need to practice what we already know! I know you
will start working on being more disciplined, and like my friend Zig says
(whom I've spoken for) I'll see you at the top or from the top (my
paraphrase) the choice is up to you, but to those who implement what you
just read, I know I'll see you over the top-because you rock!
