So you know how you're kind of low on that self-discipline line and willpower.
It's like you can't even find any, right? Well, I don't think you know really where
to start. This is where you start.
You know how you're trying to get yourself to take action on some tough
things or... Oh gosh, maybe even some easy things but you're not doing it, right?
It's like, "Why didn't I do that? It was on my to-do list." Ah today's topic is how to
develop self-discipline and willpower. Now you may be thinking I'm going to give
you like this big, gigantic, cosmic answer. Uh-uh. You my friend need to start with
the basics. When you don't do the basics, how are you supposed to have the power
and energy of discipline and willpower? Let's check in on some very foundational
principles here to see if you're doing them. Because they have a very high
impact on your psychology. Now, I'm not your dad,
I'm not your dad, not your boss, I'm not your wife, I'm not your mother, I don't...
But I'm going to say it's time to make your bet. I know it sounds crazy. It sounds
crazy. But you know what? You can tell a personality of somebody... Of somebody who
gets things done. They take care of their living environment first thing in the
morning. Now let's rattle through these because I want you to see. There's a
really big impact here of the activities you do in the morning that sets you up
for the day. Now, I know you're thinking, "Wait a minute, I thought is going to get
some kind of professional training here." Well, I believe that every great ability
has those very, very, very, fine roots that are deep, deep in the ground. So let's
think about this. When you do get up and take care of your living environment and
you make your bed, you literally are acting in a level of gratitude. You are
literally putting your bed in order. You're practicing the skill of order.
You're also showing the literal example of how you leave things. You know when
you walk out of that bedroom, what condition did you leave that bedroom in?
Is it a mess or is it in order? I mean that's your style, that's your
personality, that's your behavior of how you just
left that room and how it looks. You know making
your bed helps you upgrade your level of respect because you're taking care of
what it is that you currently have. So look at these skills, look at these
abilities, these behaviors in the life you have. So let's go to the big scheme
of things. The big big picture here. What if you had a heart and mind more of
gratitude. What if you had the level and the skills of putting things in order?
What if you could leave things better than what they were? And what if you
could improve the level of respect that you have about yourself and those things
in which you are a master over. Your home, your bedroom, your stuff. Because how we
take care of these things is how we take care of people. It's how we take care of
our office, it's how we take care of ourselves, it's how we take care of our
to-do list. It's how we take care of the clients, the customers, the children, the
neighbors, the yard. What you do and one thing, you do in other things. And if you
happen to be somebody right now who's going, "Well, I don't make my bed Kirk, it
doesn't matter." Well that's a behavior. And when you be get into studying
behavior, you'll notice. Yeah, what you do in one area seems like nothing. That same
kind of behavior shows up in other places. If you're running a business
right now and you're wondering why your clients are complaining or moaning and
groaning about what you're doing in your business, you're probably not taking care
of them. You're probably not finishing what you need to finish with them. And
you would never ever think that it's connected to making your bed, would you?
You never would imagine that. But consider this too. When you leave that
bedroom in the morning, that's the start of your day. So if you're looking for a
simple way to build self discipline and willpower, you... Before you leave that room,
it is made. It is awesome, it's clean, it's organized. And really... Every aspect of
that whole room, you take a moment and put it in its best shape possible. It
will influence your performance the rest of the day. And I know you still may not
even see the connections or the dots there. It doesn't
matter if you can concede or not. What matters to me is if you are going to
take such a simple step forward, a very simple step forward. Because when you
take a look at the beginning of behavior, it really is those things that we just
don't notice. It's those things we're not we're unaware of. Its those steps and
those action steps that we don't think really matter. Like that doesn't really
connect. But in life the small and simple things connect to the big acts and the
big action steps and results that we have. if you're looking for another edge
and another way to develop your character, after you get up in the
morning, really tidy up nice and nice and clean. Just make it all look beautiful
and organized and make sure your side of the bed and the whole living quarters in
that particular of your home is organized. It makes a difference. If you
don't believe me, test it and try it. And those of you who already do this, you
know what I'm talking about, don't you? And I know you're wondering, "Hey Kirk, so
is your bedroom is it all look good and everything?" Yeah, it's it's all nice.
It's totally put together. There is no junk on my side of the bed. There is no
junk under the bed, there's no junk sitting on a nightstand.
I have no junk in my bedroom. But I didn't start out that way.
Years and years ago, I didn't think... I didn't think it mattered until I really
wanted to accomplish some big goals. Until I wanted my marriage to improve.
Until I wanted to be a better dad. And over the years of finding where it
starts... It starts and how I put things together and put things in order first
thing in the morning. You'll love it, you'll totally love it. Go get it done.
Just make it happen. And for the other people in your home, spread the word. It
sure makes a big difference in the home. Now finding the underneath training, the
below surface training like what I'm sharing with you right now.
