Discipline is one of the most influential factors in our path to success, the discipline is directly related to individuals, groups, businesses and successful communities.
It is very difficult to see someone undisciplined triumph because it is unlikely to be successful, there are many factors that influence a person, group or company to achieve success: creativity, perseverance, knowledge and preparation among others, but no doubt some the most important is discipline.
A few days ago I read about a Japanese saying that says: "Discipline Sooner or later will overcome intelligence", then we can say that no matter how smart you are, if you are not disciplined you have little chance of success or what otherwise, even if you are not so smart if you have discipline, your chances of success increase potentially.
Discipline is defined as the orderly and systematic way of doing things, following a set of strict rules and norms that, in general, are governed by an activity or an organization. It is a set of rules or standards whose compliance constantly leads to a certain result.
Implications in steemit.
Steemit is a "social network" where it is very difficult to advance alone, I do not know the beginnings of this ecosystem but I can tell you that one of the keys to grow in steemit is the discipline, is to comply with what You say or think about what you are going to do to obtain growth, regardless of whether or not you wish to comply with what is established.
One of the actions you must take is to create strong relationships with people who share common themes, make those relationships last and create a commitment of mutual support in a win-win scenario that will help you obtain the much desired growth; for this, it is necessary to be disciplined in order to fulfill the commitment with all the parties involved, thus achieving growth, knowledge and lasting relationships.
When I arrived at steemit in February 2018 I arrived without any knowledge of blockchain, I was not a blogger like many here, I had no experience writing text or writing articles, although I have been writing sermons for years, and I must confess that until now I was not a lover of the discipline, in fact he was very undisciplined at the time of realizing some project.
During the past year I left for several weeks and on different occasions the platform frustrated by the results I was getting, until in December of that year I met , starting a relationship of support that remains so far, thanks to its support, discipline and perseverance I'm still here but with a new mentality.
Applying discipline.
My biggest learning so far is to understand the operation of steemit, this learning came in the form of hope, #PROJETCHOPE is the project that is teaching me discipline, today I understand that many of those who are growing on this platform today they have something in common and that is the discipline.
Thanks to proyecto esperanza, an initiative carried out by the good friend with the support of
and other users who support the project, today 4 Venezuelans are receiving a weekly income

, besides that my personal account went from having little more than 20 SP to 105,716 own SPs and 294,184 SP delegates, I also go from just over 500 followers to 1081 followers, quite good numbers for me and they have me very happy.
I am sure that the results obtained so far are nothing compared to those that will come if I decide to stay on the path of discipline.
What is the learning in terms of discipline? and what is discipline doing for me?
There are some people from whom I have I learned some things in steemit, but the ones that have taught me the most are and
. I never imagined that to work on this platform, such a strict discipline was needed, but what I will explain next I learned from them:
I keep a detailed record of my followers in an excel file, in addition to that list where all my followers are registered and the accounts that I follow, I have a register where are the accounts of my most active followers to which he sent me memos to invite them to read my publications, when it is about to expire a publication file all the accounts that voted for my publication with the purpose of visiting each profile and demonstrate my support to those accounts (I confess that it is not easy), each record has the purpose of returning the support to all users and try to strengthen that relationship of mutual support that there is in this community. I am aware that I have a lot to learn but I think I am on the right path.
Now, every morning when I wake up and turn on the computer or at night when I return to my house, the first thing I do is check my account, I go to the wallet and check if I have received any notes, if I have notes in the wallet and it is one known account I try to attend quickly that invitation, if I do not know the account I read the memo, if I am interested I read the article and leave my comment of support.
For some of you maybe it's basic things that I share with you here, but for others you may be reading this for the first time, and it will help you now or in the future, I know that sooner or later the disciplined work that I am trying to do will pay off for that reason I am willing to continue applying what I have learned. If you want to see success soon, follow the path of discipline and you will see the results.
