Working on yourself makes you realize that discipline is indeed freedom. You see when you practice discipline, you become a student of life. Not to mention that the word “discipline” comes from the root “disciple” itself, aka follower or student.
Well, how does discipline bring freedom into your life? It does because then you feel more aligned and confident in knowing what you ought to do.
Discipline stops your person from wandering aimlessly. It gives you purpose and a beacon to hold on to for reaching your goals.
It’s in the small things really - making your bed in the morning, hitting the gym, reading, writing, calling your family, or doing something that makes you feel alive.
Some might argue. doesn’t discipline make you bound to rules instead? From their POV, it is confining to let routine run your tracks. But they fail to take notice that not being disciplined is making them a slave to their temptations and desires.
Remember, it is not just about doing things but abstaining from some of them as well.
So, don’t let your mind helm your life to captivity without discipline. Be Free!
