Ep.351: Be Disciplined and Stop Negotiating With Yourself!

On this Foundation Inspection Friday, we are talking about discipline. Discipline is as easy as telling yourself you’re going to do something…and doing it. How much more productive would you be if you weren’t negotiating with yourself on your eating and eating habits, workout routines, and business activates. Having discipline will actually become a time saver for yourself during your day.

Stop wasting your own time and stop negotiating with yourself! Our Sponsor:
