Discipline
In his epoch making book The Road Less Traveled, Scott Peck talked of the importance of discipline. He described four aspects of discipline:
-
Delaying gratification: Sacrificing present comfort for future gains.
-
Acceptance of responsibility: Accepting responsibility for one's own decisions.
-
Dedication to truth: Honesty, both in word and deed.
-
Balancing: Handling conflicting requirements. Scott Peck talks of an important skill to prioritize between different requirements -- bracketing.
