"THOUGHT OF THE DAY"
The Cost of Discipline is always LESS than the Price of Regret. So, Self - Discipline is the BIGGEST Investment for success in Life."---
A. P. J. ABDUL KALAM
Abdul Kalam inherited honesty and self-discipline from his father and faith in goodness and kindness from his mother. He learnt the value of respecting other religions and faiths.
Self-discipline is inherent, it comes from within. People can motivate you but until and unless you yourself put your mind to it, others cannot help you. Self-discipline comes from the mastery of your thoughts. You need to be in charge of your thought process.
