Success in life is not random; rather, it is based on a foundation of commitment, self control, perseverance, and hard effort. Being diligent is being aware of every little thing and making sure that no work is overlooked. Everything boils down to being diligent and tenacious, even when things don't seem important or necessary.

Contrarily, discipline is the capacity to maintain your attention on your objectives while avoiding deterrents like distractions and temptations. It's the inner fortitude to follow through on your goals in the face of difficulty. Your journey is propelled by hard labor. The extra hours, perspiration, and effort are what set the exceptional apart from the ordinary. But effort on its own is insufficient. 

The element that holds everything together is consistency. When you combine diligence, discipline, hard work, and consistency, you create a powerful force that propels you toward your goals, no matter the obstacles.
