hey guys what's up welcome back to the

Show more

channel so in today's video I'm going to

be discussing 10 different ways that you

can train yourself to become more self

disciplined so this is gonna be a super

informative video I put a lot of thought

into this self-discipline is what's

going to help you have longevity in

whatever you're doing

it's all mental and it's all perspective

this can relate to virtually anything in

this case I'm primarily going to be

talking about health and fitness so if

you're new to the whole health fitness

type of field 2020 you're starting your

new journey I hope this video can help

you out because self-discipline is

what's gonna keep you going

long term baby ok not short term we're

talking making lifestyle changes mental

shift changes to get that train going

you want it to last you a long time if

you're not already definitely hit that

subscribe button for new videos every

single week ok let's do this these are

10 I've come up with in no particular

order so number one we're talking about

changing your perspective

I can't versus I don't so an example

would be say you're at a friend's house

and they offer you cake or pastries or

something like that instead of just

saying I can't eat that

try saying oh I don't eat that but thank

you when you word things differently

you're actually telling yourself and

giving yourself credit for believing in

not eating that particular food items

when saying things like I can't eat that

it's actually telling yourself I can't

I'm punishing myself I'm not allowed to

that's not true here ok you're making

the conscious decision to better your

life so I don't eat that

by saying I don't you're owning that

decision okay you're confident in that

decision and you know yourself you know

what you're doing be confident in this

this is your journey in your life so you

don't eat these things not I can't

because it's ain't a punishment girl no

number two is to remove anything and

everything that does not align with your

goals this could be relating to a lot of

things I'm going to give you an example

of food okay

eliminating sweets out of the house for

example James and I we don't buy

anything that doesn't fit our health

goals by not bringing things into your

life that would negatively impact your

goals it just sets you up for more of a

success and gets you used to not being

around that and not eating things like

that now this could go for anything like

I said alcohol cigarettes you name it

it's just about not having those things

around you to negatively influence your

life so understand what your goals are

and don't allow anything to interfere

with that don't even allow into your

house girl so number three is focusing

on building the new not on trying to fix

the old okay this is important because a

lot of people are so used to how their

lifestyle was or currently is when

trying to make that transition they

dwell too much on the past but what a

lot of people don't understand is that

your past really has no influence

whatsoever on your future you're

starting on a new slate you need to have

that perspective of it being that new

fresh slate okay do not compare to your

past don't compare to things you used to

do give yourself the chance to start

over any mistakes you may have made

anything that you're kind of

disappointed in yourself and forgive

yourself and move on you need that

closure it's healthy if you resent

yourself for anything that you've done

in the past it's only anchoring your

future okay it's only keeping you in the

past and that's what you want to do is

move past the past

just look towards the future you're

building yourself new fresh keep that

perspective and you will be just fine

okay so number four is to shift from

motivation to have it two totally

different things okay

motivation is a very temporary fix it's

a wonderful thing it can get your bum

right up and going but it does not last

forever so the purpose of this video is

to try to train yourself to have more

long-term mindset and to get yourself

where you want permanently okay it's all

about a lifestyle change so for example

you watch a gym video of somebody

working out if you start to get that

energy from them you get that motivation

you go I want to look like this person

or I want that I have similar goals in

mind I'm gonna go work out and we'll do

that today that's wonderful but that's

not enough to keep you permanently going

addicts you need something more than

just like a visual stimulant okay it's

all up in here girl

but when trying to make that transition

from motivation to habits the trick is

to focus only on you your own goals your

body your mind your life it's great to

have that external motivation but what's

gonna keep it a habit a lifestyle change

permanent is inside of you it has

nothing to do with external of anything

so with that being said it does take

about 21 days for a practice to become a

habit so obviously practice this is not

something that's gonna happen overnight

and all the Sun you're gonna be you know

fine and dandy and have this habit

that's just wonderful and life-changing

it takes some serious practice and time

to get to that point so nevertheless it

will always be worth it you just gotta

invest in yourself number five it's

probably my favorite one okay I'm gonna

be real with you girl this is something

I swear by I'm very very strict about I

guess you can say it's switching your

mindset from an emotional to a very

logical

so for example somebody puts a piece of

chocolate cake in front of you your

first reaction will be emotional it will

be oh my god that looks good

oh my god I'm salivating I'm picturing

how good that was taste

that's all emotional you're just going

based off of your initial emotion what's

gonna get you past that binge that whole

giving in to those kinds of things is

gonna be your logical taking over that's

what you've got to train your brain to

do is think logically

which means looking at that piece of

cake and saying okay well it does look

good but how will it make me feel what

will it do to my body

what negative effects we'll have and how

will it deter me from completing my

goals and getting to where I want to get

so it's very healthy to differentiate

the two emotional and logical and to

understand when that logic needs to take

over that is self-discipline in a

nutshell when thinking logically for

example the cake you're going to be

understanding that you're eating for

function and not taste you got to be

really upfront and honest with yourself

in these scenarios okay recognize that

emotional and recognize that you need to

switch right over to that logic because

the logic is what's going to get you

where you need to go and life relying on

that emotion you're just gonna be mmm no

so guys this leads me to point number

six by saying no to that piece of cake

it is not deprivation so do not get it

twisted do not think you're depriving

yourself if you think that in your head

that you are depriving yourself you are

going to end up giving in almost every

single time because there will not be

any end in sight so you're not depriving

yourself believe me

the deprivation it's only when you're

not eating at all that's starving

yourself that's depriving your body so

if anything you're actually depriving

yourself by eating the cake because

you're depriving yourself from nutrients

that you could be getting in better

foods so number seven is to challenge

yourself throughout the week

intensely so adding an intense

challenges whether it be nutritional or

exercise so for example eating super

clean a couple days out of the week like

super strictly or exercising intensely

those few days this is what's going to

help mix up your routine enough to keep

it from becoming monotonous and boring

whether we like to admit it or not

humans are designed for challenge we

actually thrive on challenge keeping

that incorporated into your routine will

not only help you continue going in that

direction and it's going to make your

everyday routine seem a lot easier okay

when starting any routine you might

think it's intense especially if you're

not used to it but adding in these super

intense days these high high intensity

days will make the rest of your week

your normal healthy maintenance not seem

like such a burden in other words you

will kind of adapt to it a lot better

what used to be a heavy duty challenge

to you will become your new norm okay

it's gonna gradually go like a chart

like you're eventually going to get to

that level where something that used to

be so difficult is now your norm

okay so tip number eight is to not call

it a diet no such thing I mean there is

but it's just like quick fixes that

never last so instead of calling it a

diet or just simply call it your

nutritional standards that's what I

refer to it as a diet is something that

has an end line okay that eventually

will come to an end you don't want that

you want this to be an ongoing permanent

lifestyle change I know that people over

use that term diet and it's almost like

the norm

it's just what we as a culture have

evolved into just constantly saying but

don't be afraid to just stand outside of

that outside of the average of the norm

it's ok you should be proud of being

able to say this

you diet when there's a fence coming up

okay you diet for a wedding or a

vacations

you know just temporary little fixes but

what happens when those days are over

nutritional standards are a guideline a

permanent guideline that you must meet

every single day in your life

that's what makes it a standard okay

keeping that standard in mind as

something that defines you in your

lifestyle is what's gonna keep you

believing in it and it's what's gonna

keep you from falling off okay this is

this is all about permanent okay number

nine is to think long term versus short

term so do not get it twisted you should

be thinking both okay you should have

short term goals

absolutely because that's what's going

to help you right here right now

every day to slowly get to those long

term goals long term meaning things like

how you see yourself as you age

alright thinking long term in that sense

not thinking about how long it's gonna

take you to drop X amount of weight get

that out of your head don't think like

that

alright that's gonna discourage you

think long term as in five ten years

from now I will potentially be seeing

doctors less I will be feeling ten times

better things like that yeah that's a

long-term investing idea but having

long-term just by itself isn't good

either because like I said before it can

get very discouraging you have to have

your short-term goals view long-term as

like a ladder and short-term being as

the rungs in the ladder you can't have

one without the other so for me

long-term would be things like not

having to go see a doctor when I'm

middle to late age okay avoiding doctors

that's my long-term goal but short-term

goal for me would be like eating clean

going to the gym and exercising every

single day these are short-term goals

that inevitably turn into long-term so

god I have both okay last but not least

number ten is just so freakin

straightforward right here right now but

this is how I wrap it up giving yourself

time patience is a virtue we all know

that you got to give yourself the

much-needed respectful time things take

time great things especially so

investing in yourself isn't a

one-and-done it is a long-term time

invested thing so once you learn pretty

much how to change and shift your

mindset change your perspective on

health fitness wellness that is the

beginning of changing your entire life

and the only thing that's gonna allow

you to do that is ties those were my 10

tips on how to become self disciplined

you want to chase that healthy lifestyle

it needs to be the stamp on the envelope

you need to put that stamp you need to

get self disciplined there's just no

other way around it understand that it

is not easy to become self disciplined

okay but if there's a will there's a way

remember that the body will not go where

the mind does not allow it to go

perspective and mental shifts are

necessary I know guys this was a pretty

friggin serious video and I got real

intense at some times but it's because

I'm very very very passionate about this

topic it isn't until you make these

mental shifts where it's going to become

an ingrained thing a daily everyday

thing so if you are up for that
