The Thinking Behind The Tweet
No point getting chicken-and-egg bogged down thinking about what comes first - goals or self-control. No point debating whether or not there are values in goals. No point debating whether or not long-term gain justifies short-term pain. If you believe self-control is a valuable trait...then set a goal, focus on it, and work at it. [That's the way to build self-control and achieve goals.]

The Thinking Behind the Tweet
Brian Tracy said, "Persistence is self-discipline in action."
I believe desired Actions are always preceded by desired Thoughts.
In order to achieve Goals we must first discipline our Thoughts then those disciplined Thoughts will govern our Actions.
The habit of self-discipline is an essential ingredient of success.
