Title:Self Discipline Author: Joseph Peculiar Self discipline is the ability to do what you should when you should do it,whether you feel like it or not . They say that self discipline is the key to success,the lack of self discipline is the major cause of failure, frustration, under achievement and unhappiness in life .It causes us to make excuses and sell ourselves short. Another definition of self discipline is self mastery,success is possible only when you can master your own emotions,appetites and inclinations .people who lack the ability to master their emotions,appetites become weak and dissolute as well as unreliable in other things as well . Self discipline can also be defined as self control ,your ability to control yourself and your actions,control what you say ( words are like bullets)and do and ensure that your behaviors are consistent with your long term goals and objectives is the mark of the superior person. there are some disciplines your parents build for you just like the ROCKFELLER family. They were famous for being taught financial value at an early age. even though there father was one of the richest men in America,the children were given tasks and chores to perform before they received their allowances,they were then instructed on how to spend their allowances. other than that there are some disciplines you build for yourself which are positive and negative because what you constantly do becomes a habit but I advice all to build the discipline of LONG TERM THINKING because sociologist Dr Edward Banfield of Harvard university conducted a FIFTHY year study into the reason for upward socioeconomic mobility in America he concluded that the most successful people are long term thinkers.
