DISCIPLINE IS EVERYTHING!
Some few days back, the Harmattan was awful at my end.
It was so severe and before I knew it, it was past midday and I had done virtually nothing since morning, but for my staying in bed!
"After all school was on break and it wouldn't matter staying in bed the whole day", I said to myself.
After a while however, I quizzed, "WHO DOES THAT"?
I had some clothes soaked in water that needed to be washed and I was still in bed?
I wasn't through with the book I had started, and I was still in bed?
I had even planned to go to the barbershop, and I was using the weather as an excuse? Who does that?
I later settled in one thing; I HADN'T BEEN DISCIPLINE ENOUGH!
How and why should I allow the weather to make me unproductive?
I remembered how one uncle in Europe always said they gave very little or no room for 'weather excuses', but went about their activities perfectly.
But was it me, or it was an African thing?
Here in Africa we were used to 'weather excuses' and I had grown up hearing several of them.
Discipline had made Europe a world Power!
Napoleon Hill once said, "if you do not conquer self, you will be conquered by self"!
He who lacks discipline lacks the desire to succeed because the best way to succeed in life is to be disciplined!
Be Disciplined!
Make An Impact!
Stay Blessed!
