Your life struggle passes with difficult tasks, problematic moments, contradictions and intensities. The reason for this is not just yourself; Not being able to simplify your life. This is actually a situation that has been secretly taught to you since your childhood... We are raised with the reward of the ambition to achieve difficult things, and then we become individuals who are not satisfied and always want more. People no longer feel appreciated and feel that they are not working in areas where they have genius. These feelings make us feel that we are wasting life and that we can actually do more in a shortcut. This situation is supported in every respect. For example, advertisements... Even though advertisements promote different products, what is the message they constantly give us? "If you take this, your job will be easier, if you choose this, you will be faster, if you do this, you will be perfect!" All these correspond to such a place in human beings that it becomes unbearable; indiscipline. Yes, it is attractive that it provides the feeling of making life easier, freer, faster and perfect without discipline. Because discipline has been taught to us as a boring but necessary condition. However, we have misunderstood the issue...
Just as many promoted products do not work, most of the things you think will make your life easier are actually stolen time from you. A disciplined life is a life where you know what to do in the shortest way. Discipline does not mean living like a robot, it means saving time and making your life easier by giving yourself more time to be happy. So how can we ensure this disciplined, simple, easy life?
-
The most important thing is to first know what is "enough", and if you don't know, discover it. What are your real needs; A house, a car, more shopping? Or to have a healthy time? What are your main pursuits beyond material needs? Are constantly exceeded credit card limits really for your real needs?
-
Throw away the excess from your life without looking back. All the items you don't use and unnecessary clothes squeeze your life in ways you don't realize. For your inner peace, if you first say goodbye to everything unnecessary that surrounds you, understand what your real needs are. By doing so, you create your discipline.
-
Try to live life simply. You can be perfect when you achieve the difficult, but that may not be what makes you happy permanently. Why not achieve what is difficult for you and make time for things that make you happy? Because this is the hardest thing; The one to whom we spend the least amount of time is actually ourselves, our greatest need.
-
Do what you love. Yes, this should be your sentence that nourishes the understanding of discipline the most. Determine your interests, do everything you love, make it a discipline and do it without skipping routines.
-
Do not exaggerate, build, multiply or call out anything that seems bad. Focus on goodness and positive futures and direct your discipline and energy here.
-
Instead of constantly talking about how short life is, try to find out how to use life more efficiently. Because life begins and ends. What matters is not how it starts and where it ends, but what you can fit in between.
-
Think positively. Smile. Know how to laugh at yourself. Know how to say I love you. Don't make excuses, tell the truth. Love all living things. Know how to share. Respect differences. Eat healthy. Appreciate it. You can extend the list by saying thank you profusely. If these constitute the basic foundations of the true understanding of discipline, discipline will not be boring at all, on the contrary, it can be your most genuine advertising slogan that simplifies your life while making it beautiful.
Life is a huge bunch of tiny things.
(Oliver Wendell Holmes)
