this really helps me realize that sometimes you need to look AWAY from the bigger picture. instead of being upset that my talents, skills, accomplishments and life are not built up to what i want them to be, realizing that i have plenty of time ahead of me and just need to focus on “one brick a day”
First step is to change your identity that I am a disciplined person. Then start to act disciplined. And start from small steps. Every small step is to vote to your identity of a disciplined person.
Everybody who is a human commits mistake. He got carried away in that moment. But for those people who are criticising or making fun of him - It's his thought process that enabled him to become a star . Nobody knows you all . One bad deed and many good deeds. Learn from his words coz they are pure GEM
Great message.. Am going to quit drinking before it quits me.. one day at a time 🔥 I will update this message a year from today... hopefully one year sober GOD willing 🙏🏼
People commenting, how can a grown man who slapped another grown man can give us discipline advice. Well until he did that people looked up to him, would've commented positively. Nevertheless, the fact that he made a mistake doesn't mean he doesn't possess those qualities. His success came from discipline, period and nothing can change that!
When I first was getting clean and sober, I couldn't comprehend, what was/is considered, a "normal schedule" (wake up. Go to work. Return home. Eat dinner. Sleep. And things I needed to do for my recovery). I started reflecting, when I was ready for bed, in what I was calling "small victories" because my instincts were still calling me to "turn up the volume" (meaning I was initially bored and restless). I didn't all of a sudden have the dream job, didn't have a car yet, no relationship. I didn't have, nor was I getting all the "cash and prizes" from cleaning myself up from the self destructive life I was living. But I accepted the "small victories" and still did the same thing the next day. Still clean and sober 25 years later, I still remind myself this. The bigger picture, or end result, is sometimes WAY too intimidating and fearful to predict. I guess that's where the "one day at a time" slogan came from.
Discipline that creates an individual wound so tightly results in that becoming unwound in uncontrolled episodes of regretful magnitude. We discipline ourselves to be better, not invisible and blindly go forward, but to build grow understand and continue to be better than the day before.
He's more successful than you are; married for over 20 years, 3 kids, multi-millionaire, academy award winning, etc. And I personally believe, he's on his way to salvation in Jesus Christ. ✝️
This is sheer brilliance. I read a book with similar content, and it was sheer brilliance. "The Art of Saying No: Mastering Boundaries for a Fulfilling Life" by Samuel Dawn
When I think about discipline I imagine something solid like a foundation, but I never think it would be like "experience" in my mind, then in his words said the brick which means: "just a little for today, only 2 hour on working that" that it seems so easier rather than 12 hours studying
I’m just trying to wrap my head around a guy slapping a grown man on National television because he couldn’t control his emotions telling me about self discipline 🤡
I get your side but at the same time. Mental health or circumstances can change people. In that note we all evolve some in good or in bad. I bet you aren’t the same person as you where 5-10 years ago.
The sad thing is the wall he took his entire life to bield is now crashed by his own actions. The "To bield a wall" analogy is great for external growth. For internal growth nothing is more powerful to say to yourself "That was my fault, and nobody else"; blaming anybody else of your problems and shortfalls take away your agency then you become powerless.
