Stay disciplined even when things get tough from "summary" of Slight Edge by Jeff Olson
When the going gets tough, it's easy to give up. It's easy to throw in the towel, to say, "I've had enough, I can't do this anymore." But that's precisely the moment when you need to stay disciplined the most. It's when things are toughest that your discipline will be tested, that your commitment to your goals will be put to the ultimate test.
Discipline isn't just about doing what you need to do when it's easy, when everything is going your way. It's about doing what you need to do when it's hard, when nothing seems to be going right. It's about pushing through the obstacles, the setbacks, the challenges that life throws at you. It's about staying focused on your goals, even when everything around you is falling apart.
When you stay disciplined, even when things get tough, you're sending a message to yourself and to the world. You're saying, "I am strong, I am determined, I am committed." You're showing that you have what it takes to succeed, no matter what. You're proving that you have the grit, the resilience, the perseverance to overcome any obstacle in your path.
Staying disciplined when things get tough isn't easy. It takes courage, it takes strength, it takes determination. But it's worth it. Because when you stay disciplined, even when things get tough, you're setting yourself up for success. You're building the habits, the mindset, the character that will carry you through even the darkest days.
So next time you're faced with a challenge, with a setback, with a tough situation, remember to stay disciplined. Remember to stay focused on your goals, on your dreams, on your vision for the future. Remember that staying disciplined, even when things get tough, is the key to unlocking your full potential, to achieving your wildest dreams.
