Practice patience and discipline

Sterner, Thomas M. The Practicing Mind: Developing Focus and Discipline in Your Life. Novato, CA: New World Library, 2012. p. 40.
"The practicing mind comes down to a few things:

• Keep yourself process-oriented.
• Stay in the present.
• Make the process the goal and use the overall goal as a rudder to steer your efforts.
• Be deliberate, have intention about what you want to accomplish, and remain aware of that intention."

These notes seem particularly fitting to the New Year. I am committing to continued practice with discipline and patience.
