DISCIPLINE

I’ve never heard anyone talk about this in sales.

The role discipline plays in your success.

Here’s an example: Before you leave work, you make a list of 40 people to call tomorrow. And then tomorrow, you call them. You do that every day.

That’s discipline.

Discipline isn’t about grinding harder. It’s not about motivation or inspiration.

It’s about making choices today that serve you tomorrow. It’s your present self helping your future self.

Your present self wants to scroll, procrastinate, and avoid rejection. Your future self wants more conversations with prospects. Discipline is choosing for your future self.

That’s what builds consistency. That’s what compounds over time. That’s what separates amateurs from pros.

Because when tomorrow comes, your future self looks back and says: “Thanks. Thanks for getting this list together so I can hit the ground running. Thanks for not leaving me to dig through the CRM when I’m already tired.”

That’s the quiet power of discipline.

It’s not punishment. It’s a gift your present self gives your future self.
