'I find self-discipline difficult'

Do you have a clear goal and purpose? Do you know exactly what's expected of you?
Try following guidance in Time management on this web site. Draw up a wall chart of tasks to which you regularly refer. Tick off tasks as you complete them.
Break down large tasks into smaller, more manageable ones.
Try giving yourself rewards when you've completed each task - a cup of tea, a walk, a phone call to a friend.
Set up a support group with other students. Set goals and meet regularly to check progress. Make sure that you focus on completing tasks, however, and avoid any collusion in relation to assignments.
Is your lack of self-discipline related to a lack of motivation, or another issue? See the list of Obstacles in this section.
