Self-Discipline

Control It !

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 10 months ago 1 min read

"Self-discipline

starts with the mastery of your thoughts.

If you don't control what you think,

you can't control what you do".

Mental Health

is becoming a very big concern

and is recognized today

as a very real 'problem'.

Many addictions

are traced back

to what a person thinks or is shown.

Once the eye sees something,

it cannot be forgotten.

So,

the 'trick' is

to make sure that what we see

and take into our minds,

Builds our Minds up and Strengthens our Minds.

None of us are born

with 'weak' minds

but we can become 'weak' mentally

when walking through life.

Don't let someone else

'force' depression upon you.

I'm not talking about listening

and helping someone who is depressed.

I'm talking about

that 'nasty' person

who is jealous of your happiness,

and they want you to think only negative thoughts,

bringing doom and gloom into your world.

A simple

"NO Thankyou!",

if only in the mind,

will help to protect your thoughts,

thus protecting your mind.

And then you can personally have

that "self-discipline"

Controlling your own mind and thoughts.

'Control what you Think,

and you will Control what you Do'.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
