The Pillars of Mastery -- A Series (1/4)

On Discipline

Lack of talent is lack of discipline.

Lack of discipline is lack of prioritization.

To be truly talented, you need a unique way of thinking—one grounded in self-honesty.

It takes energy, courage, wisdom, faith, and self-assurance to be honest with oneself. It is so easy to lie to ourselves. And when it comes to developing great talent, becoming a professional at what you do, an artist in your craft, you need all the ingredients of self-honesty, because without them, you will continually prioritize the less important things—things that do not feed your talent, your career, or your self-worth."

One day, you will look back and realize that we all had the same 24 hours each day. Some used it to become criminals, others housewives, some fell into addiction, while others became millionaires.

It has always been a question of prioritization.

What are you prioritizing today, this year?

It is a clue to your destiny.
