Self discipline is self-caring

Self discipline is the ability to control our desires and do what is right for us, even when no one is watching. It is the truest form of self-care, because it protects our health, our time and our future. A disciplined person wakes up on time, eats sensibly, exercises and studies regularly — and so cares for both body and mind.

Self discipline grows from persistence and determination : we keep going when the task becomes boring. It needs perseverance and hard work, like an athlete who trains every morning in rain or heat. It demands devotion and commitment to our duties and promises. It keeps our focus on a clear target, so that distractions like endless phone use lose their pull. Finally, it encourages self learning — the habit of studying and improving without being forced.

Thus a person who disciplines himself is not punishing himself; he is caring for the person he wishes to become.
