Discipline is easier than it sounds. Discipline is nothing
more than choosing, with intention and positive purpose,
while considering all the consequences of making that
choice.
Discipline is a matter of controlling the person over whom
you already have the most control. That person is you.
When you focus on the consequences of each action you take,
on the short term and long term consequences, discipline
comes easily and naturally. Discipline is the recognition
and celebration of the fact that your actions have
influence.
By choosing your actions you can choose your results. By
choosing your actions you can choose the life you create for
yourself.
Discipline is not a punishment or a burden when you choose
it for yourself. Discipline is one of life's greatest
opportunities.
Choose in each moment to exercise the control that you
already have. Live and act with discipline, and create a
life of true fulfillment.

I like this one too. I have been "harshly disciplined" by others/the "system" etc. etc..so I think I have developed a hatred and loathing of that word and it has extended to the concept itself. This is unfortunate, as your blog today points out--being able to discipline YOURSELF is an empowering thing that is quite valuable. Thanks.
SO much of who we are and our level of happiness comes from our ability to discipline and/or control our thoughts. Excellent penmanship girl~
