Develop self-discipline by setting goals and taking consistent action

Develop self-discipline by setting goals and taking consistent action.

— from Goals, Action & Defining Success (Goal/Action/Success/Motivation)

In the book

You build a successful life one day at a time, a single day's work laid upon the last, through patience, persistence, and plain perspiration. Self-discipline is the thing that holds it together — setting the goal and then taking the action again and again — and the whole sequence distills to a simple formula: clarity of purpose, a compelling reason to act, a sound strategy, consistent action, and the flexibility to adapt as you go. Keep asking the one question that cuts through busywork, what moves the needle?, and pour your effort there. — Goals, Action & Defining Success (Goal/Action/Success/Motivation)
