  Think about it, is this your daily life:

  I know that running can keep fit, but I can't keep my legs open;

  Talking about saving money, but still shopping crazily;

  I have made a lot of reading plans, but I always comfort myself: "Let's start tomorrow";

  Vowing to go to bed early and get up early, I ended up brushing my cell phone at two or three in the morning ...

  Writer Wu Xiaobo said:

  Every unique and peerless good thing is based on incomparable diligence. It's either blood or sweat, or a lot of good times.

  All the laziness stolen when I was young will become a pit dug for myself in middle age;

  All the sweat that flows when you are young will become an inexhaustible blessing after middle age.

  The gap between us and the cattle people is just the word "self-discipline". Excellent people can always compete with themselves, grind more than others for a while, and then open the gap in life.

  Saving money is the most practical self-discipline

  Think of a true story before:

  A middle-aged couple was unfortunately involved in a car accident and was taken to the hospital. Both of them were seriously injured. The woman had a broken foot and could only lie down. The man's face was covered with blood, and his mouth hurt so much that he could not speak.

  But the man rummaged all over his body to make up the registration fee of 14 yuan, and the bank card was only a few tens of yuan.

  Embarrassed, he wanted to borrow money from his relatives. He rummaged through his mobile phone several times but didn't know who to call. All the calls he could make were made once. The other party either said that he was in the field or was busy. He hung up the phone in a hurry and the man collapsed instantly.

  Netizen commented: "Let adults collapse, it is enough to lack money once!"

  Life is always bullying the weak and afraid of the hard. Only the deposit in the bank card is the shield against risks. If you have money in your hand, you can "not panic."

  I have seen a hot talk on the internet: "The world is in a hurry, but the picture is broken, but this broken silver can solve ten thousand kinds of melancholy in the world."

  It's true and heartfelt. People need money for everything.

  No matter how much you earn, you must get into the habit of saving money. Knowing how to save money is a foresight to plan ahead.

  Oscar Wilde once said:

  When I was young, I thought money was the most important thing in the world. I didn't know it until I was old. That's true.

  I have seen the sharing of a netizen:

  When she was in junior high school, her parents ran an ordinary snack bar. A family of three was crowded into a small room of several square meters. The ingredients, spices and woven bags used in the store were filled with more than half of the room. All the clothes of the family were washed by hand, and a boiled meat slice could be eaten for 4 meals.

  Without travel and holidays, she repeats the life of going out early and returning late every day. One thing her mother has to do every week is to deposit all the money she earned and saved this week in the bank.

  However, it is such embarrassed parents who can give her thousands of living expenses every month after she goes to college. After getting married, they buy a small three-bedroom apartment in the city where she works.

  Later, their family already had three shops and two commercial houses, and they earned more than 200,000 yuan each year by collecting rent and financing.

  As the ancients said: One dollar a day, a thousand dollars a day. The rope saws the wood, but the water drops the stone.

  The accumulation of a small sum of money every day, a long stream of water, will also accumulate into a huge sum.

  People who can save money know how to delay satisfaction, restrain themselves, plan for the long term and save for the future.

  Therefore, it is the last word to make money hard and save money consciously.

  Exercise is the most healthy self-discipline

  There is a question in Zhihu: "How big is the gap between a person who doesn't exercise and a person who exercises regularly?"

  One of the highly praised answers is:

  For people who exercise regularly, the ecosystem in their bodies is like a clear spring, while for people who are sedentary, the ecosystem in their bodies is more like a stagnant pool.

  Da Vinci once said:

  Exercise is the source of all life.

  Socrates once said:

  The health of the body is destroyed by immobility and maintained for a long time by exercise.

  Exercise is the best way to keep healthy and a good medicine to cure everything.

  The changes brought about by sports may not appear immediately, but the gap between people will be visible to the naked eye in day-to-day persistence.

  A few months ago, Liu Genghong, the "top fitness player", burst into flames. At the age of 50, he couldn't find any signs of being over 50, and he was full of sinews.

  As everyone knows, he insisted on fitness for 29 years, not only training in the gym, but also participating in marathons and triathlons from time to time. His physical age is enough to kill many young men in their twenties.

  Persist in exercise for decades, and the years are rewarded with youthful appearance and strong body, which restarts the highlight moment of life.

  When exercise becomes a habit, the body will naturally give you the best feedback.

  There is a saying:

  Life will be gentle to you if you are willing to be cruel to yourself.

  Those who seem effortless are actually inseparable from super self-discipline. Whether it is health, wealth, or smooth roads, it is a blessing accumulated for yourself by adhering to self-discipline.

  Bai Yansong was diagnosed with hypertension and had to take medicine for life. However, through two months of exercise adjustment, he walked for an hour every day and cooperated with running to control his blood pressure to a normal range.

  As the old saying goes:

  Exercise well, and the five internal organs are self-harmonious.

  If you want to stay healthy, you might as well start with more exercise.

  There is no denying that the process of exercise is very hard, accompanied by sweating and aching all over, but please stick to it, and time will give you the best answer.

  It's easy to give up, but it's cooler to persist.

  Reading is the most nourishing self-discipline

  Zheng Chenggong, a national hero, hung a self-encouragement couplet in his study:

  Nurturing the heart is not good and wanting, and it is as enjoyable as reading.

  The best way to cultivate one's self-cultivation is to be abstinent, and one's greatest happiness is to study.

  Many times, the root cause of people's troubles and confusion lies in reading too little, which makes them anxious about the present situation, worried about the future, and people become more and more depressed.

  People who read a lot are rarely blind, anxious, and lost, and they are sure to be comfortable when things go wrong.

  In the entertainment circle, there is a music poet, and he is Li Jian.

  He keeps the habit of reading a lot all the year round, and the shelves are full of books.

  Love reading, he once said:

  Reading is like three meals a day on the spiritual level. If people want to eat, your mind should also be constantly energized and nourished.

  Many of his musical inspirations come from books, and his lyrics are gentle, elegant and poetic.

  The motto Lian Bi wrote:

  Fish is dry when it is out of water, but it is hard to find a heart when it is out of books. "The effect is that fish will die if they leave water; A heart without a book will exhaust the spirit.

  Reading is a lifelong practice. No matter how much wealth or status you have, you can reshape your heart and live yourself through reading.

  Writer Zhou Ling began to concentrate on reading at the age of 36, dabbled in a large number of books in various fields, awakened inward and explored outward, and finally wrote a bestseller that changed countless people;

  Through intensive reading of the Analects of Confucius and reading a large number of books, Teacher Fan Deng changed his worried state of mind, faced the helplessness of life and realized self-healing.

  As Bi Shumin said:

  Books are not sticks, but they make people powerful; Books are not feathers, but they make people fly.

  Reading is the biggest pillar of a person's soul. In the face of all kinds of rampant life, you can still turn the tables against the wind.

  Getting up early is the lowest cost self-discipline.

  People often say that those who can tame the morning will surely tame life.

  A person's habits often hide his future. The earlier you get up, the more exciting your life will be. The leisurely pace of life and full emotions will enable us to control the good state of the day.

  Writer Li Xiaoyi gets up at 4: 45 every morning and writes 2,500 words every morning, 365 days a year, almost without interruption.

  Quiet in the morning, complete time and more concentrated energy bring her more efficient creation, and also let her form a regular routine of lunch break and early sleep every day.

  She used the early hours to write 900,000 words a year, wrote more than 5 million words in six years, published eight best-selling books, and successfully transformed into a female writer of her dreams.

  She said in sharing:

  I like to live a leisurely and regular life, which makes me more patient with life.

  It can be said that getting up early is the lowest-cost appreciation method. Insisting on getting up early is a great good habit, and the changes it brings are often amazing.

  People who are really good know how to make good use of the early morning time.

  For example, those "dark horses" who have made rapid progress are not all smarter than you, but are more determined than you, and get up early every day to study, review and do problems.

  For example, the sales elite in the office can often punch in the card in advance and prepare for the day. When you are still in bed, he has already sent a copy of the report.

  For example, people who are in good shape and healthier than you often prefer to get up early for running and fitness, sweating like rain.

  Franklin once said:

  I have never seen an early and diligent person complain about bad fate. Good character, excellent habits and strong will will will not be defeated by the supposed so-called fate.

  Any good habit, as long as you stick to it, will definitely see changes. If you can't exercise self-discipline for a while, it's better to discipline yourself from the little thing of getting up early.

  Finally, share a story.

  Legend has it that Gu Kaizhi, a great painter in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, eats sugarcane differently from ordinary people. Ordinary people start eating from the sweetest sugarcane root, while he starts eating from the weakest sugarcane tip.

  Someone asked him, why do you want to eat the weakest end first?

  Gu Kaizhi only replied with four words: Getting better.

  In my opinion, self-discipline is the same. It's nothing to be bitter in the early stage, but the important thing is to get better and better.

  Psychologist Clark once said:

  The early stage of self-discipline is excitement, the middle stage is pain, and the later stage is enjoyment. When you start to enjoy self-discipline, you will find that life is less frustrated and confused.

  The past becomes the past, and the important thing is the choice of the present, which will determine the future life.

  When you start to enjoy saving money, enjoying sports, reading quietly, going to bed early and getting up early, you will change day by day.

  I hope you and I can persevere, quietly change and shape a better self.
