Discipline

Its 5:30am in the morning and i know i need to get up, (i pinch myself severally) get up girl ! get up!!, i tell myself. I open my eyes and Oh my gosh!!! my eyes are no longer obeying me, they close back and i drift into another session of sleep.

I get a very good book to read, I start and feel like i wont stop reading until i get to the last page but after a few days of so much struggle i put an end to my reading and spend my free/spare time doing what?!!!!!!!!!!!! (search me, I dont really know). I stopped reading a book that would have helped me gain more knowledge on some issues of life.

I look in the mirror and tell myself " you need to form the habbit of exercising" it sounds so good to me and i draw up a plan, (I just cant seem to find the plan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). I bet you know what that means.......... (i didn't get to use it).

I get some money and i tell myself "girl you need to save or invest in some stuff. At that point when i'm layig up plans to do something productive with the money, I impulsively buy something i never planned to buy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

I could go on and on about the numerous things i planned to do but didnt get to do. I know a lot of you are at this point or may have passed this stage ( if u have passed this stage, why dont u post a commment on how u did it) Share with others who read this blog!!

Discipline is the key to getting out of this situation. Do what you have to do when you have to do it without procastinating. Discipline acccording to the Websters Dictionary can be defined as "training to improve strength or self-control" . To be successful in life we all have to exercise self control which in other words is discipline.

See Clearly with the aid of the Binoculars: You can be all you want to be provided you exercise self control and disciplne.
