Quality 6: Positive Self-Discipline
You have to discipline yourself or else someone else will discipline you into doing what they want you to do. Total winners have the power to discipline and take control of their lives.The overall goal of your discipline strategies should be for your child to learn self-discipline. Kids with self-discipline are able to make healthy choices even when their parents aren’t standing over their shoulder telling them what to do.
Children who develop self-discipline are more likely to live happier lives, according to a study published in the Journal of Personality.
Research indicates that people who have self-discipline experience less conflict and less emotional distress in life.
Self-discipline is one of the six life skills your child should be learning through your discipline practices. There are several areas in life where kids should develop self-discipline in order to grow up to become healthy, responsible adults.

1. Healthy Habits

Kids need to develop self-discipline when it comes to living a healthy lifestyle. Kids should understand the importance of getting adequate sleep, eating a healthy diet, and exercising regularly. When children develop self-discipline in regards to taking care of their bodies, they are more likely to live a healthy lifestyle as an adult.
It’s important for your child to know that he shouldn’t eat 10 cookies because it isn’t good for him, not simply because, “Mom says junk food is bad.” A child with healthy self-discipline will be able to use willpower to make healthy decisions for himself, even when he doesn’t feel like it.

Quality 8:   Positive Self-Dimension Total winners like in the present. They know that now is all there is. They don’t get caught up in the past or worry about the future.
