What Do You Stand To Lose If You Have No Self-Disipline

Let's get one thing clear. The word “discipline” is not exactly popular nowadays. In fact, a lot of people treat it like the D word. People think that discipline is either old fashioned or simply inapplicable to our modern age. It's easy to think of discipline as something quaint. Kind of like a relic from the time of our grandparents. They needed self discipline, but it's very easy for us to think that we are exempt from it. It's understandable why a lot of people are under this impression because we live in a world that worships convenience. If you don't believe me, try ordering a pizza. If you live in a major metropolitan area in the United States, the standard delivery time is 15 minutes. If your local pizzeria can not deliver the goods within that time, your pizza is absolutely free. When you go on the internet, when you buy anything from Amazon, you are bombarded with all sorts of free shipping or 2 day delivery offers.

It goes with the territory. It seems that the more we live our lives, the more we are trained to expect instant gratification. We want the good stuff that life has to offer and we want it now. In fact, a lot of people want it yesterday.
