Summary:There are tendencies and drives within human nature to become too lazy, selfish, addictive, and hedonistic or pleasure seeking. As a result, we watch too much TV, get fat, and get addicted to things that eventually squeeze the joy out of life like alcohol, drugs, gambling, food, and yes even shopping. We then don’t bring the things we want into our lives and feel like a failure, a blob, and become unhappy and dissatisfied. In this program, you will learn how to discipline your mind and behavior through practicing and mastering the 7 self-disciplines of perspective, patience, detachment, performance, perseverance, goodwill, and moderation. You’ll learn custom-made time management strategies for Type A and Type B personalities. Imagine being able to acquire any skill, discipline, or habit that you want in the world. You could achieve almost anything!
