self discipline and living wisely

Aside from heeding good advise, another thing a young person must do to be able to live carefully is to practice self-discipline.Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived, said "He who rules his spirit is better than he who captures a city,"(Proverbs 16:32b) Our number one enemy is our own self. It is you, with the the aid of God, who can curb your own desires.When you'rule your spirit' you put this self under the control of a higher goal in life that is more permanent and rewarding,for example, you may want to try out prohibited drugs,But when you rule your spirit,you make the choice to stay away from drugs because you know that this will ruin your mind and your body and keep you from doing what is right.We as a person, must give ourself to discipline.You will be surprised that as you do, success and happines will be within our reach.
