Then, identify the daily activities that will help you make these factors your reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, imagine that <em>what you want<\/em> is an expensive tropical vacation. You might practice the following habits to make this a reality: adding leftover money to a change jar at the end of each day, making your coffee at home rather than buying Starbucks,<em> <\/em>or researching some aspect of your trip like accommodations or activities for a few minutes each day.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, imagine that <em>who you want to be<\/em> is a good parent.

To ensure that you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/how-to-maximize-productivity\/\">maximize your productivity<\/a> in every area of your life and make the <em>most <\/em>progress toward your goals, Walter recommends implementing a few additional daily habits:<br><br><a href=\"https:\/\/shortform.com\/app\/book\/the-power-of-discipline#habit-1-create-morning-and-evening-routines\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Regularly follow morning and evening routines<\/strong><\/a>\u2014set activities that you diligently perform immediately after waking up and before going to bed. Creating a productive morning routine sets the stage for continued productivity throughout the day. A productive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/bedtime-routine\/\">evening routine<\/a> ensures you get proper rest and feel fully prepared to make the most of the following day.<br><br><a href=\"https:\/\/shortform.com\/app\/book\/the-power-of-discipline#habit-3-gain-control-over-your-impulses\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Control your impulses<\/strong><\/a><strong>. <\/strong>Walter explains that humans have a natural impulse to opt for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/immediate-gratification-2\/\">instant gratification<\/a>, like giving up on a hard task or something productive and choosing to do something fun, like play video games, instead. When we let these impulses control us, we struggle to perform the hard, productive tasks necessary to progressing toward our goals. To overcome these impulses, Walter recommends always <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/how-to-push-yourself\/\">pushing yourself<\/a> 60% harder when you&#8217;re ready to give up. He also suggests waiting 10 minutes before making an unproductive decision when you get the urge to do so, as after the 10 minutes, the impulse will likely fade. Practicing these techniques regularly will turn them into habits that combat your impulses.<br><br><a href=\"https:\/\/shortform.com\/app\/book\/the-power-of-discipline#habit-7-create-positive-associations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Form positive associations with work<\/strong><\/a><strong>. <\/strong>Walter explains that people often dread putting in the work necessary to achieve their goals because they have negative associations with work\u2014for example, they don\u2019t want to work because they associate it with being hard or boring. To overcome this and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/how-to-enjoy-work\/\">make work enjoyable<\/a>, make it a habit to form positive associations with work. Do this by adding things you enjoy into your work routine\u2014before, during, and after work. For example, make a nice cup of tea before you start work, listen to soothing music while you\u2019re working, and cook your favorite meal after you finish\u2014these actions will make the process enjoyable, or at least tolerable, from start to finish.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What role do habits play when it comes to following through with your goals?
