One of the essential characters needed in becoming acceptable in the society is self-discipline. Self discipline covers a whole lot of varieties not only controlling yourself in public, going to work early, sleep on time, be in the right place at right time. In fact it’s all about effective time and character management on steps to achieve your goal.
What is self discipline?
Self discipline is the regular practice of training the yourself to be outstanding in your concerns. Yes, I used the term “outstanding” because once you are able to discipline yourself, you will also aim at achieving your goals through disciplinary methods you are used too.
When I exercised self discipline
I will share short piece about how I exercised self discipline in an action. Actually during my days in the university as the director of socials, There was an occasion held at the school multipurpose hall.
“It was termed after school what next?”. This occasion was organized for computer engineering student and I was called upon to speak at the event concerning the need for student to learn digital skills that is needed in computer engineering before graduation.
After event been handled successfully, refreshments were distributed to speakers before participants in attendance. The lady mearnt to share the refreshments, though I wasn’t in good terms with her due to an issue before the event I will like to keep private.
What happened
After she distributed the snacks and drinks to all on the high table on the podium, she didn’t give me my share and her attention was called towards it by the event planner but she ignored also claiming she has given me already.
At that point in time, I was in calm till the event ended successfully and I was time for private meeting with major stakeholders for a congratulatory encouragement towards the success of the meeting which she wasn’t among the members.
At the end
In appreciation we were to be at the refreshment centre where will discuss a few things in congratulation and she was invited. I was the one mearnt organize members who will attend and her name was among which she knew I was the coordinator.
Whats your expectation
Do you expect me to also call her among those for the meeting which I did. Am I actually wrong?
Thanks for reading through. I appreciate the time. I actually learnt never to have people in heart as your issue though self discipline plays an important role in achieving that.
