Introduction
One of the major keys to success in the business world is being able to apply discipline to your life and actions — this is the foundation of personal effectiveness and professional excellence.
As S. N. Bremer said:
“Self-mastery is the greatest task to which man has ever set his hand to. Self-development can be achieved only after we resolve to control ourselves through the operation and control of our thoughts.”
Aldous Huxley added:
“There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that is your OWN SELF.”
Whether you realize it or not, you carry within yourself a mental blueprint — a picture of you. All your actions, feelings, behavior, and even your abilities, are consistent with the self-image you hold. Your self-image can be either your life handicap or your auto-pilot for success.
Denis Waitley, motivational speaker and performance trainer, summarized it perfectly:
“Ultimately, what shapes our self-image is not so much what happens to us, as what happens in us.”
