Like me, you may even be thinking, "Why am I delaying my pleasure?" Now, pleasure is such a strong feeling. Especially at the present time, I also think of this question among all the almost perfectly working strategies that brands, the digital world, and culture use to manage and control us.
Should I delay my pleasures?
Can I give up the things that I want to do but have to give up?
How good am I at doing things that I don't want to do but have to do?
If you are afraid to ask yourself these questions or are delaying your answers, maybe you should check out what the discipline means to you, below you can find the items to make it easier for you.
Poor self-discipline signs
-You will feel lazy. You have a structure that tends to procrastinate.
-You are having trouble with deadlines.
-You have habits such as binge eating, excessive sleep, spending a lot of money, and excessive social media use.
-You get bored of life's routine. You have a tendency to avoid things you have to do.
-You get angry with yourself about how little work you've done. You show success under your capacity.
Even if you know you can do better, you are often disorganized. Perhaps most importantly; You keep saying “I have to realize myself” but instead you are the spectator of others self-realization.
Studies show that some people never develop this capacity. Although the answer is uncertain, the role of genetic effects is unclear. But most of the signs clearly show that the parent's child-rearing quality is the decisive factor! At this point, culture, child-rearing methods and education system are important factors that enable the development of self-discipline.
The feeling of being valued, taking care of oneself, and taking due care are the cornerstones of self-discipline.
Self-discipline is love!
Scott Peck defines love in his book "The Less Chosen Path" as follows: Love is the will of man to expand one's own self to support one's own or someone else's spiritual evolution. It is the one of will powerful enough to be translated into action. Love is an act of will.
How close or familiar is this definition to the concepts of love and will that you use in everyday language?
The act of will also means to choose. Self-discipline is the voluntary assignment of yourself to your own life.
While you constantly postpone the exercises and hobbies you want to do. While you fight not to buy the necklace you see on the internet, not to eat the hamburger, while parents continue to actively blame the environment and society for the schools you cannot go, the departments you cannot read, the professions you cannot do, the relationships you cannot establish, even as an adult; In short, can you say that you really love yourself when you have the strings of will attached to the hands of others?
It is our will to delay or control our pleasures as subjects that will lead us to the state and understanding we really want to be.
Willpower; The situation removes the time factor that is brought before our eyes, like a veil that prevents us from seeing the cause-effect relationship between the event and the self.
Willpower, discipline; it is the capacity to perpetuate belief in oneself, regardless of whether it is day, month, year, short or long!
Do you see the possibilities of expanding your will to support yourself and others?
Have a good read, with the hope that your possibilities turn into action.
