Discipline is a calculation, not a state. 

The choice to be disciplined isn't even about the choice itself, it's the decision to weigh outcomes on the correct timeline/scale before you make xyz choice.

"I said 12pm today, will I do what it takes to hit that deadline?"
"I said no carbs, will I follow through even when traveling?"
etc.

When you look at circumstances with only a "here and now" time horizon, you are in-fact being disciplined -- but disciplined according to the correct time horizon.

You are weighing the "now" choice against the "now" outcome

To be disciplined, all you need to do weight the "now" choice with the "long-term" outcome. Especially true if you have a clear life vision.

If you make space for the long-term outcomes, it tips the implicit scales in your brain that assign reward/risk to your choices. This is one of the main reasons "just be disciplined" is not sufficient for most people when push comes to shove.

If your life-vision, your desired outcome, is so attractive that it far outweighs the short-term benefits of xyz choice, you stand a far better chance at following through on the promises you make to yourself.
