Leadership Skills Worksheet: Self-Discipline
Leader's tip (First what helps, then what is fun): Self-discipline: homework before games, sleeping on time, practising daily, phone away for study, finishing what you start. No self-discipline: gaming till midnight, putting work off, scrolling during study, giving up after a day, leaving tasks half-done. Starting is the hardest part — begin with just 10 minutes; keep distractions out of sight.
