“Without ideals, discipline, hard work, honesty and high human values, one’s life cannot become great.”
Many people know this thing that Swami Vivekananda said, but they cannot implement it. Because of this their life remains chaotic. Such people are not able to complete the work on time or reach anywhere on time.
However, self-discipline is very important to be successful. You will be surprised to know that the day of Tim Cook, CEO of iPhone maker Apple, starts at four in the morning. No matter where he is, his early morning routine never changes. As soon as he wakes up, after answering important emails, he goes straight to the gym and starts his day on a positive note. He had said these things in an interview given to Time magazine.
The CEO of PepsiCo, Indra Nooyi, also wakes up at 4 in the morning and is in the office by 7 o’clock. He spoke about the importance of his daily routine and discipline in an interview with Fortune magazine.
According to the study ‘The Power of Discipline’ published in Harvard Business Review in 2018, only around 40% of people around the world follow discipline in their daily life.
so today relationship In the column we will talk about the importance of discipline in life. You will also learn that-
- How to bring discipline in life?
- Why is the life of a disciplined person easy?
Discipline is not strictness, it is a means to an end.
We always associate discipline with toughness. Like ‘This is a very difficult task, it’s not within my reach’, ‘I won’t be able to get up early in the morning at all.’ We put this misconception in our minds that discipline means imposing rules and restrictions on ourselves. The real thing is that discipline only helps us take us towards the goals of life. But we only come to know this in our life when it is too late.
Psychiatrist Dr Satyakant Trivedi says that one reason for lack of discipline is that we are always running after small pleasures. The second reason is to continue thinking about material comforts. We think I have to do this, I have to do that, I have to earn a lot of money, I have to be successful, but we can’t think what and how to do it for that success. Wasting our time on social media also distracts us from our goals and discipline.
How to adopt self-discipline in life
Self-discipline has many names, such as willpower, self-control, and time management. It helps us focus on work, achieve goals, and achieve what we want to do.
The Oxford English Dictionary defines self-discipline as controlling emotions and overcoming weaknesses. The Cambridge Dictionary defines self-discipline as the ability to force yourself to do something you know you should do, even when you don’t want to.

The famous author Brian Tracy has written a book on this subject, which can be easily used to adopt discipline in your life. The name of the book is- ‘No Excuse! The Power of Self-Discipline.’ This book tells how you can be completely disciplined in your life. How you can apply the ‘No Excuses’ attitude to life. This will help you achieve many goals.
Why is discipline important?
Being disciplined is a way to live a better life. It is beneficial to learn it at a young age. In their homes there is an atmosphere of discipline since childhood, especially in families with a background in the military, children learn to follow discipline from childhood.
