Discipline

"Discipline is remembering what you want."David Campbell

Yesterday, I attended a very insightful and motivational meeting that recharged my battery. In all that was said, one quote resonated the loudest; and it was the above words. I immediately asked the young lady to repeat the quote.

If you are anything like me, a Gemini with ADHD, you know discipline is not our forte. My mind is in perpetual movement and I am inspired with idea after idea on a daily basis. At times, it is very difficult for me to focus on one idea. Currently, I am practising on development of one idea from beginning to end before moving on to the next best thing.

The statement also struck an accord because it inspires me to keep on keeping on by remembering my goals. As we all know, our country is mired in economic malaise; and, quite honestly, I know only one or two people who are not experiencing some sort of economic hardship.

Economic hardship is often very in your face and personal. We find ourselves frustrated because many of our the economic options or freedoms are absent. Sacrifice can be humbling.

Times like these require the utmost discipline (no longer able to splurge), prudent choices have to be made. By remembering what our goals are, we can best use our resources to navigate through the land of discomfort.
