Who am I?

Discipline. It's a four letter word to most people. It strikes terror in the hearts of those who hear it. The consequences of pondering its meaning are unspeakable. The reality is, through the exercise of discipline, there is an unsettling truth. The one who chooses its path, cannot remain unchanged. That scares us. Many of us are complacent by nature. We love routine. Many live by and for routine, and why not? Routine is comfortable. It streamlines the habitual lifestyle. You always know what the outcome is going to be, so it's safe and secure. For the dreamers, it could be the bane of their existence. The man who is at home with his writer's block, nurtures it and takes it on as a veritable pet. The woman who finds herself becoming a slave to her day-to-day to do list, may have convinced herself that any ambitions beyond that station in life, are nothing but pipe dreams. Discipline spurs me on toward the completion of my goal, because in the end, each and every one of you deserve the best out of me that I have to give. Thank you all for always being there. Now go out and become who you were born to be. It all begins with a fundamental question: Who do I want to be today?
