Discipline is often a touchy subject to read or think about. As kids we were faced with it growing up. As adults, we tend to want to avoid having to face discipline in our lives, either from our boss at work, a spiritual leader at church or even from God, because it means we have to face a bad choice that we’ve made. There is actually something we can do in each of our lives to lessen the discipline that comes from others. It’s called self-discipline. Self-discipline is a proactive measure we can take in our lives that will limit the reactive nature of being disciplined from outside sources. Self-discipline causes us to make right choices in our lives that lead to positive results. Self-discipline comes from ourselves and we train our minds and bodies to do what is right. The process of exercising self-discipline is the key for ensuring we experience the next level in our lives that God wants for us.
