1. If you want to live a happy and successful life, you can't rely on motivation.

Motivation will fail you. Discipline will keep you going.

2. Excuses will make today easy but the future harder.

Discipline is harder today but makes the future easier.

Choose your hard.

3. Choose your goals and write them down.

You must have a clear vision of where you're going or you'll get lost.
4. Focus on the habit, not the outcome.

Say "I'll exercise 4 times a week" instead of saying "I'll lose 0,5 kilograms a week"

5. Prioritize quality sleep. 7-8 hours of sleep every night is crucial.

Get to bed early and wake up early.

Getting up early will make you more disciplined.

6. You need to say "no" more often. Taking on too many tasks will make you feel overwhelmed.

Your time and energy are limited. Every time you say yes to someone else, you say no to yourself.

Prioritize wisely.

7. Just start. Most dreams are killed before they even get going.

Imperfect action is much better than no action. You'll never feel ready.

Break down your goal into smaller steps, set deadlines, and stop over-complicating.

8. Forgive yourself. We all make mistakes.

Don't let mistakes stop you. It's never a failure as long as you learn the lesson and keep going.
