TIP #2: PRACTICE SELF-DISCIPLINE
If you're wondering how self-discipline ties in with tuning in to your unique calling, let's break it down.
Tell me if this sounds familiar. You tend to get amped up about something new and exciting that God is doing in your life, you make a commitment to do the thing only to later find yourself disappointed because you lacked the discipline needed to walk it out. Now, you just feel defeated and the self-doubt is creeping in.
It's ok! I've been there too! We all have.
"...For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them." But, let's be honest, we're not always going to feel like doing the things. Practicing self-discipline helps us avoid negative patterns and overcome them through the power of the Holy Spirit.
When you're in tune with your true purpose and higher calling, you're better equipped to identify self-sabotaging thoughts and choose to be obedient to what God is asking of you, pressing on even when it's difficult or uncomfortable.
By living on purpose, with a purpose, self-confidence, self-esteem and inner strength increases giving you courage to shine more.
Commit to shifting your mindset and becoming more disciplined in one area of your life today.
