Only by self-discipline can you be free!

There is such a question on Zhihu: What is your deepest misunderstanding?

The answer with the highest likes is: I thought that freedom is to do whatever you want, only to find out that only those who are self-disciplined will have freedom.

That's right, the freedom you want is not true freedom without self-discipline! True freedom is absolutely based on self-discipline. You may think this is a bit contradictory, but it is not! Because it is like the relationship between pay and return, if you don't pay, how can you pay back?

I once read such a little story in a book. It is about an American professor of habit management who did such an experiment. He found 30 children aged 7 to 12 and locked them in a classroom. In the classroom, there are candy, snacks, milk and other snacks on the table in the classroom. The professor told the children that he had something to do and would come back in two hours to eat with them. The children nodded in agreement, and the professor left!

Through the surveillance camera in the classroom, after the professor left, several children kept their eyes on the food. It is conceivable how much these colorful, sweet and delicious things tempted them. Finally, as time passed As minutes passed, a few children couldn't resist the temptation of the food. They walked over to pick up the food and ate it with relish. Seeing that a partner was already eating, other children came to eat one after another.

However, a few children never left their seats for half a step. With the bell, I remembered that two hours had come, but the professor hadn't come back. At this time, except for one child who didn't eat, all the other children ate more or less! At this time, the professor came back and said to the child who didn't eat: "Little boy, you are really good, come on, I believe you will make a lot of achievements!"

The research team followed up on these 30 children, and finally found a surprising discovery: 30 years later, those who ate immediately after the professor left generally lived at the bottom of society, while those who ate after two hours were mostly middle class. , such as teachers, engineers, etc., and the one who has never left his seat is Roosevelt, who has been the president of the United States in the four circles!

How about it? Be shocked! In fact, there is nothing shocking, all results are inevitable , if you plant melons, you will reap the joy of success. If you are not disciplined, you will fall into the abyss of degeneration!

There are always some people in this society who are complaining, complaining about their humble origins, complaining that they have no wealth, and complaining that there are no noble people to help them! But what's the use of complaining, it's useless! It is better to calm down, read and study, and develop a good habit of self-discipline! I believe that God will never fail a self-disciplined person!

Take myself as an example: I used to be addicted to mobile phones in high school, which led to my failure in the college entrance examination and missed the undergraduate college. After entering a junior college, although I was unwilling, I also felt that I was powerless. Every time I set a study plan, However, it was delayed many times, and in the end, it had little effect. By chance, I listened to an open class of growth class, learned a lot of knowledge, and made many friends who are better than myself! So far, I have always remembered the words of my mentor: let yourself grow up faster than your parents are getting old!

From that day on, I am determined to transform and grow! I lived frugally and bought many books and courses with the money from my part-time job and scholarship. Every time I took a class, I had to go to a place 40 kilometers away from my school, and it took me more than an hour to take the bus. Being able to grab a seat in the front row, get up before six o'clock in the morning, every Saturday and Sunday, all my roommates are fast asleep, and I don't want to wake up several times. I said to myself: Are you tall, rich and handsome? What is the qualification not to study? Do you want to live the life you want? That's it, I persevered!

The best time to plant a tree was ten years ago, and the second is now. I want to say that the same is true for a person's change. The playfulness of ten years ago created your present inaction, and today's confusion will inevitably lead to ten years. The fall of the year!

Don't you want freedom? Then today you must be self-disciplined, a self-disciplined person, I believe that no matter what he does, he is better than others! I hope we don't become giants in words and dwarfs in actions! Three days of fishing, two sets of nets! That's not called self-discipline, that's called intermittent smugness, continuous mixing and waiting for death!

Finally, I would like to share my few requirements for self-discipline: stay away from games, get up early, don’t stay up late, and don’t be picky eaters! I believe that everyone has their own goals and plans. I hope everyone can truly implement their dreams for the sake of their hearts.
