A well-known phrase which is worth keeping is, "Where there's a will, there's a way." Associate with those who are like-minded and also have a strong desire for the same goal as you. Also, your abilities will grow to meet your strong desire. Nonetheless, desire without discipline is delusion. So, we may have ideas for what we want, but if we're not able to harness our desires and our senses in order to move in that direction, then we become ghostly. That is, we have desires, but we can't fulfill them because we can't get any traction.

So now I'm going to go into a little more detail. I'll read these few, and then I'm going to talk about how to develop discipline and why to develop discipline. Does that sound like a good topic? Yes? Okay, you like it, but not very much. Audience : Yes!.

Oh, alright,okay.

The mechanics of discipline. Number one, what's important is a conscious control of our lifestyle. It comes, does the word discipline, from a Latin word which means "learner." All learning takes place, all progress takes place when we have discipline, when our desires meet discipline. Also, correct practice makes perfect. So, do it right from the very beginning; get good instruction, and each discipline affects all others.
