Discipline Yourself!
The world is full of exposures, and until you discipline yourself appropriately, your life will be messed up totally unaware.
There are so many things wild and widely displayed to entice you, but hay, you need to be smart and wisely guard your preferences. Thus, you must discipline yourself.
Though most people acknowledge the importance of disciplining one's self, very few do something to strengthen it. Why, because they lack the inner strength to let certain things go. May be because of their deceptive short-term pleasures.
Meanwhile, until you discipline yourself to the diverse options you have in life, you would never know the right choice to choose. My dear, you really need to exercise self-control in all things if you really want to be successful.
No successful person do away with self-discipline, as it is one vital skill to greatness in life. If not true, how can one have a fruitful relationship without disciple? How can you be successful in school without discipline? How can you be profitable in your business without disciplining yourself to your decisions, suppliers and customers? This goes on and on, and proves that your life will be a total mess without discipline.
How then can you discipline yourself? Just by knowing the truth (that is getting the right information or fact) to guide your life. This truth can be found in no other place than in Christ (the Word of God). For his word is truth (John 17:17).
No one can be disciplined without the word of instruction. For without that, how do you know you are doing the right thing or on the right path? And Christ is the best and final solution to that (John 14:6; 2 Timothy 3:16-17).
However, we never see God nor Jesus Christ physically, but through the Word of God. And this is why you need to study it to show yourself approved (2 Timothy 2:15). Meanwhile, God also uses the people around us to instruct us unto discipline (Ephesians 6:1-9). Therefore, you always need to be humble and submit to the authority of those that God has put charge over your life. For in due time, you will receive the blessings thereof. Don't be anxious, just discipline yourself and you will get the desires of your heart at the right time.
Stay Blessed!
