Mindfulness And Self Discipline, The Secret To Survival by @amoakdaniel

The worst thing that can happen to someone is to lose consciousness. Anything can carry such a person in any direction without the person being aware of it.

Ignorance is part of the reason why people live carelessly without being concerned about what comes afterward. A person who has experienced something before would always apply caution whenever he or she sees anything of that nature coming up again.

In a terrible and frustrating world like ours, full of struggles, pains, and disappointment, anyone who lives without being mindful of the fact that things like these are in existence is only setting himself up for the worse.

Day by day as we live we need to be mindful of every decision we make, there is a law guiding almost everything in life, whichever thing you do, you will surely get the result associated with it.

There are so many advantages attached to living a mindful life, where others tread without caution, you would take your time before making a step because you know what lies ahead.

We are in the days when people make decisions without considering the aftermath, people live anyhow they want and when they get a poor result, they blame God or life for being unfair.

The question I kept asking myself is what makes you think Good will exist without Bad, on the other side? There is always the opposite accompanying everything in life, when you go contrary to the expected path, you will surely get the other side.

There is no empty path in life, what you sow is what you will get by the end of the day, and if you refuse to sow at all, you will still get a reward. Life has a gift for everyone, even the most idle person on earth. One has to keep these things at the back of his or her heart.

We need to live with consciousness, being mindful will not only keep us from falling into traps, but it will also help us succeed.

But I need to draw the line, being over mindful too has its bad sides, I have seen people who in the name of being mindful end up missing opportunities and complicating things for themselves. Don't take it too extreme, mindfulness goes with wisdom.

In fact, I see being mindful as a State where one acts based on quality knowledge and experience. For instance, if you want to take a risk, you must know that there are consequences attached, and in order to avoid the bad consequences, you make your findings and take the risk on the safer side, that is mindfulness for me.

Some people in the name of people mindful folded their arms and became lazy, this thing is supposed to help us grow and not retard our progress.

To achieve balanced mindfulness one needed self-discipline. In fact, the two always work together. The day we kick one aside the other will die. If you stop being mindful, you will not be disciplined because you will lose consciousness and if you stop being disciplined, you won't be mindful.

Self-discipline is the mother of all achievements in life. One can't go anywhere in life if he or she doesn't have a set standard to govern his or her life.

Discipline will help us to always be on course even when all the odds are against us and the wind seems to be blowing hard on us.

Nobody in life is designed for greatness, but some people didn't meet up because they were loose, they lived carelessly.

You will never achieve anything in life if you don't apply the principle of self-discipline. There are so many distractions, there are many obstacles that are positioned along our roads to getting whatever we desire. If we don't stay disciplined fixing our eyes towards the goal, we may end up losing out.

Everyone ought to have self-discipline, as an individual, set standards around your life, and be accountable and mindful of them. Don't live cheaply and loosely without caution, you will fizzle like a coal of fire separated from its company.
