We have a challenge: self-discipline. I call it personal strength. Ever lie to yourself? I have lied to myself. I think I am going to do something and then I don’t do it. When I tell myself that I am going to do something and then don’t do it, I lose personal strength, and so do you. We have all the good intentions in the world, and then we don’t have the self-discipline to do something that we told ourselves we would- save money, eat less, stop smoking, stop drinking, don’t do drugs, be nice to the family, be nice to ourselves. I may be out there just a little bit, but do you tell yourself you are going to do something and then through lack of self-discipline you don’t do it? You are robbing yourself of personal strength. It is better if you stop promising yourself things that you don’t do. Try a little self-discipline, or quit telling yourself that you are going to do something that you don’t do. Begin the process of having great personal strength, and start telling yourself the truth.
