It seems to me that self-discipline can be considered very much like a muscle - it will atrophy if it isn't used. It stands to reason the opposite is also true - each time you use a little self discipline whether it is related to eating habits, patience, exercise, or even keeping the house clean - each time you exercise self discipline you feel a little bit stronger. What I would like to do is to start to keep track of what I do that increases my self disciplne. What little changes can I make to feel stronger. I'm not a person who can make big changes all at once. For example, I fail at diets because I can't maintain the all consuming committment to monitor my eating day after day. My house is disorganized because I am unable to see and respond to everything that needs to be done.

I hope that through this blog I can begin to make tiny changes to improve my life - to become stronger.
