When one considers the many characteristics and skills to get success as an online student, the one that can have the greatest impact on the performance is self-discipline. It may be easy to simplify this term and equate it to getting your work done; however, it’s not only when you get your work done, but also how you get it done. There are rules, procedures, and expectations established by your instructor – but that may not be enough of a motivator to encourage you to do well in class. It is ultimately your ability to stay focused and on track that determines how you perform in class, which can be accomplished if you develop a strong mindset through personal self-discipline.
