What
you will get out of self-discipline
A lack of discipline in any individual, group, or
society can lead to disaster. The abilities of an individual to self-manage his
or her actions are proportional to the level of success and happiness they will
experience in their lifetime. Self-discipline is not about punishment or even
about a restrictive lifestyle. It is the ability of the individual to adhere to
actions, thoughts, and behaviors that result in personal improvement instead of
instant gratification. A lack of self-discipline is the main reason for the
failures we experience in both our personal and professional lives. It is also
the underlying reason we experience disease, obesity, financial ruin, and
relationship problems on a national level.
