Many people are full of blood, as if the unhappy life in the past originated from their own self-discipline. So, start setting goals, making plans, how many books to read a year, how many pounds to lose a month, what time to get up and sleep every day, how many times to exercise every week, and how many kilometers to run. ...
They punch in on time, send friends on time, read one book after another, and take one fitness map after another. They work and rest regularly every day, but after a year or two, their living conditions have not improved. While they persist, their hearts are full of resentment. Why do I work so hard, but I still do this?
In fact, you don't know real self-discipline. Self-discipline is not a superficial imitation, and the form of self-discipline you do may not be suitable for you. Celebrities' self-discipline is not known from the beginning. What they do is self-discipline. In their own life and work experience, they have explored their own living habits.
My roommates know me very well. They seem to be my spokesmen. In many people's prayers, I told everyone to get up at 7: 00, eat at 1 1: 30, and take a lunch break until 1: 00. Later, everyone summed me up and said that I was self-disciplined, not lazy in my work and rest, able to control myself and worked hard.
Before that, I never considered myself a self-disciplined person. I only know that I have one goal, that is, to take part in the entrance examination during my graduate school in order to find a decent job. Why do I have an exam goal? Because when I graduated from college, I also looked for a job and was rejected many times, so I have nothing to offer. There is no background at home, communication and expression skills are not good, and there is no exercise. I feel that I always have the ability to learn, so I set a goal to take the exam. Based on this demand, we have a seemingly self-disciplined lifestyle. Self-discipline is not my goal, but an accessory in the process of chasing dreams.
The actress Zhang Junning is a famous athlete in the entertainment circle. At the age of 38, she insisted on running 13 years and became an example of self-discipline for many people. However, how did she start running? She once experienced a career downturn, and even suffered from panic attacks after being changed several times, feeling that she was far behind by actresses of the same period. Late debut and old age are her own anxieties. In the end, she decided to start exercising and try filming, which was her solution to her situation. At that time, she didn't necessarily expect to last until 13 years after running. All she knows is that her situation needs to be exported, and she needs to find her own way to reconcile her anxiety.
Therefore, life rewards you, not because you have a hard-working attitude, but because you have a goal and are moving in the right direction.
Everyone has different goals, and different goals determine the way to achieve them. For example, my goal is to get a certificate, so I have to have that kind of schedule. Because if I sleep for two hours, I won't finish reading, which means I may fail the exam. If I fail in the exam, I may not find a good job with special advantages. I also set myself a stage goal every day, how many books to read and how many chapters to take notes. If I can't finish that day, I'll have to spend all my weekend rest time studying. In order to relax and rest on weekends, I have to get up early and sleep less.
Some people are in an anxious or sub-healthy state. In order to feel comfortable, they need to keep running to relieve their emotions. Stopping means that they are in a bad mood, so they have the motivation to continue running.
Some star artists need to keep in good shape in order to maintain their image and acting career, so she has great motivation to insist on not eating high-fat food. You have no pressure. If you live and work, you won't have any risks because you are a little fat, and naturally you won't have the motivation to keep losing weight. Self-discipline without wrong choice will only make you lose patience with the habit of self-discipline and even complain about others.
So the self-discipline in your eyes, or the self-discipline habit you are sticking to, may not be the self-discipline you really need, and you may overestimate its effectiveness to you. Correct self-discipline should be to define your goals first and find a useful way of life to achieve them.
From now on, please check your self-discipline habits, leave what is useful to your goal and put down what you don't need for the time being, so that you can achieve your life.
