Discipline Equals Freedom. That’s not a contradiction—it’s an equation. Discipline might appear to be the opposite of freedom. But, in fact, discipline is the path to freedom. Discipline is the driver of daily execution. Discipline defeats the infinite excuses that hold you back. 

自律就是自由。二者并非矛盾,而是相辅相成的。自律或许被视为自由的反面,但其实,自律是执行任务的内驱力。自律会让那些阻碍你的无穷无尽的借口不攻自破。

 

Some people think motivation is what will compel them to get things done. But motivation is just an emotion—a feeling, and like all feelings, it’s fickle: It comes and goes. You can’t count on motivation to be there when you need to get through truly challenging times. But you can count on discipline. Discipline is something you dictate. 

有人觉得动力会驱动他们来达成目标,但动力其实只是一种情绪,一种感觉,和所有感觉一样,它是来去无常、飘渺不定的。动力可能不会帮你渡过一个个难关、越过一座座高山,但是自律却可以,自律是你的内驱力。

 

Motivation won’t make you exercise every day; discipline will. Motivation won’t stay up late and finish a project for you; discipline will. Motivation isn’t going to get you out of bed in the morning; discipline will.

动力不会让你天天坚持锻炼身体,但是自律可以。动力可能不会让你熬夜去完成任务,但是自律可以。动力可能不能让你早起,但是自律可以。

 

Make discipline part of your daily life and your daily life will get better. 

让自律成为习惯,你的生活一定会更好。
