FOCUS; DISCIPLINE; ORDER / SELF / CHRIST MASTERY = HOW TO MASTER YOUR SPACE

"The hardest victory is the victory over self."
- Aristotle

Effective leaders have FOCUS; DISCIPLINE AND ORDER. They aren't afraid to make tough choices—and must be able to envision successful outcomes. And one more key trait they need to have in place is self-mastery.

We can only control what we control. Overall economic conditions and political movements are beyond our individual control. Laws and taxes are also unchangeable. Nor can we expect to fully control other people’s opinions of us—or whether they choose to treat us fairly or unfairly.

What we can control, however, is ourselves—and that doesn’t mean just how we react to all of the above. No, what we really should work on controlling is the pace of our own growth and development, as well as our approach to each day of our lives. Instead of accepting where we are in life, we can put self-mastery into action—and be as proactive as possible to create the kind of success we want to experience in our lives.
