[Article] Discipline is A Muscle

I used to believe that discipline was a personality trait. I thought our ability to be disciplined was directly related to the amount of self-discipline we were each born with.

​

I recently decided to stop drinking alcohol for 3 month. It was a challenge and it made me realize that self-discipline is not a trait, but a muscle. You can train it.
