Becoming a Disciplined Person

学会自律

Self-discipline is a pattern of behavior where you choose to do what you know you should do, rather than what you want to do. It’s the inner power that pushes you to get out of bed to exercise rather than sleeping in. It is the assertion of willpower over more basic desires and is synonymous with self-control.

自律是一种行为模式，指的是选择做自己应该做的事，而不是做自己想做的事。自律是一种内在力量，敦促你起床运动，而不是沉睡。这是一种意志力上的坚持，以更多基本需求为基础，类似于克己自制。

It includes having the personal initiative to get started and the stamina to persevere. Being disciplined gives you the strength to withstand hardships and difficulties, whether physical, emotional or mental. It allows forgoing immediate satisfaction, in order to gain something better, but which requires effort and time.

自律包括拥有开始做一件事的主观能动性和坚持下去的毅力。学会自律让你拥有更强的身体，情绪或心理能力去承受艰难困苦。自律会督促你不能满足于现状，要付出更多努力和时间做出更好的成绩。

Discipline is one of the cornerstones to living a successful and fulfilling life and something we should all strive to master.

纪律是过上成功充实生活的基础之一，同时也是我们能实现奋斗目标的基础之一。

Benefits of becoming a disciplined person

做个自律的人有哪些好处?

When you are consistent in doing the things you know you should do, when you know you should do them, here are the benefits you will enjoy:

当你知道应该做哪些事并知道要完成它们的时候，坚持下去，你就会体会到以下好处：

You will achieve your goals. When you are consistent in doing the things you know you should do, your odds of achieving your goals will be dramatically increased.

实现目标。坚持做该做的事会大大提高你实现目标的几率。

You self-esteem will soar. Every time you push yourself to do something you know you should do, you are building your self-esteem.

如果你每次都忽视你知道该做的事并且到了该做的时间的时候，就会产生以下负面影响：(1)你无法实现目标。我还没见过这样的人——缺乏自律却实现了有价值的目标。(2)对自己没有好感。无论你有多努力证明你的做法，你能分清对错。对自己说谎只会让事情更糟糕。(3)那些依靠你努力的人会失去信心。

People’s respect for you will grow. This includes everyone from your spouse to your employer who witnesses your efforts.

那些见证你努力人——从你的另一半到你的员工，会对你越来越敬重。

You will influence the lives of others. Every good and right thing you do, influences the lives of those who are watching and can have a ripple effect on future generations.

你能感染他人。你每做一件好事或正确的事，就能感染那些耳濡目染整个过程的人，而且这种影响还有可能持续到下一代。
