While discipline does not make most people happy, those who achieved anything know how important it is in the formula of success. Any athlete would tell you how often they had to say no to something pleasant at the moment, to reach the desirable destination later. While our kids are small, it’s our responsibility to teach them to think about the future, but what is more important for us, is always to keep that in mind as well! We, as parents, often need that discipline more often than kids. As Dale Partridge likes to say is, “discipline is doing what you don’t like to get something you love.”
