Discipline is that quality of a leader that separates the men from the boys, if there is one truth leaders should hold dear and remember, it is this , before you attempt to rule others first rule yourself. The ability to control impulse is the foundation of will and character. Before you attempt to rule others discipline yourself. Don’t we all laugh at those who say ‘do as I say and not as I do’ they cannot be disciplined but want us to be disciplined. Are we not inspired by the leaders who are disciplined and tell us to do likewise? We look at their example and it is easy to follow.
Discipline is ruling and mastering yourself. Mastering your emotions, your body, your appetites, and goes as far as mental discipline, time management. Discipline is a result of training yourself to make the right choices regardless of what you actually feel like doing. You feel like doing something but you choose to do another, discipline is mastering your weaknesses, because if you don’t master your weakness now that you are small, it will conquer and overcome you when you become big.
