Self Discipline Quotes

"Self-discipline is the companion of will power. It endows with the stamina to persevere in whatever one does. It bestows the ability to withstand hardships and difficulties, whether physical, emotional or mental. It grants the ability to reject immediate satisfaction, in order to gain something better, but which requires effort and time."

Ramez Sson, Author

"Self-discipline involves acting according to what you think instead of how you feel in the moment. Often it involves sacrificing the pleasure and thrill of the moment for what matters most in life."

Peter Clemens


"Self-discipline is a form of freedom. Freedom from laziness and lethargy, freedom from the expectations and demands of others, freedom from weakness and fear—and doubt. Self-discipline allows a pitcher to feel his individuality, his inner strength, his talent. He is master of, rather than a slave to, his thoughts and emotions."


H.A. Dorfman

Quick Tips for Child Discipline

from AACAP.org

  • Trust your child to do the right thing within the limits of your child's age and stage of development.
  • Make sure what you ask for is reasonable.
  • Speak to your child as you would want to be spoken to if someone were reprimanding you. Don't resort to name-calling, yelling, or disrespect.
  • Be clear about what you mean. Be firm and specific.
  • Model positive behavior. "Do as I say, not as I do" seldom works.
  • Allow for negotiation and flexibility, which can help build your child's social skills.
  • Let your child experience the consequences of his behavior.
  • Whenever possible, consequences should be delivered immediately, should relate to the rule broken, and be short enough in duration that you can move on again to emphasize the positives.
  • Consequences should be fair and appropriate to the situation and the child's age.
