Greetings Dear Readers;
.
Hope you are well and enjoying a lovely day.

A simple Principle...right...but as usual with a straightforward Principle such as this.... there is significance when we take a moment and give it a think.
Discipline yourself, so others do not have to.
A simple illustration would be traffic signals ...if we pay heed to them then it is less likely we will receive a ticket for misconduct.
However it is so much more ...disciplining ourselves in how we think...do we think categorically?....do we think before we speak?....Are we easily distracted? Can we concentrate for an extended period of time? Do we continue to expand our vocabulary that we may increase our ability to understand, to communicate, to learn? All of this is part of self discipline.
We see the results when we train our bodies physically, which is also a part of self discipline....so we shall see the results when we mentally discipline our thinking.
Now are others going to discipline us when we do something carelessly/ without thinking..as the Principle states? It is the continued action without thought that eventually leads to transgressing the rules or laws or guidelines for life...Care- less thinking becomes a way of life when we decide not to guide ourselves.
Let's give this Timeless Truth a think...shall we?
Thank you for dropping by. ^__^
Wishing you all the best....God's best!
"God manifests His love toward us in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died as a substitute for us." Romans 5.8
It is faith alone in Christ alone for eternal life.

...Original Watercolour and Drawing by Bleujay
.

.
'Summer's Sunflowers'
.
.
Details with regard to the 'Icing' (Photographs and Painting);
The photographs were taken with an iPad Pro on a lovely Autumnal day...just a bit overcast and quite cool.
The painting of the Sunflowers had been a thought for sometime..specifically with a bright background. The materials used were Winsor&Newton Watercolour Tube Paint Professional Grade, D'Arches Watercolour Paper ..Not Press, and graphite pencil.
Some of these photographs may have been exhibited previously.
Thank you for your interest. ^__^

Such a beautiful reminder, and so well explained. I really appreciate how you connected self-discipline to both daily habits and deeper thinking. Your photos and artwork add so much warmth to the message.
Thanks again dear @bleujay for sharing another good read. Have a nice weekend!🌼
Greetings @curamax ,

Hope you are well.
Thank you for your kind wishes...here's wishing you the same. ^__^
Cheers, Bleujay
Discipline yourself, so others do not have to.
Isn't that so true? When you're disciplined, everything goes smoothly, you don't have any problems at work, but when the opposite happens, you end up getting yelled at by your boss, which is one of the worst things in the world. I try to be someone who isn't disciplined by others.
Perfect art as always dear @bleujay, have a nice day 👋
Greetings @incublus ,
What a lovely comment....thank you for the smiles. ^__^
....that's me as well.
Appreciate your kind words regarding the watercolour and kind wishes.
Here's wishing you and your lovely bride the same,
Bleujay
Good reflections and beautiful photos here :)
There are so many things we should be mindful of in our lives. So many rules and disciplines that life demands of us that sometimes we live in "automatic mode".
But one thing I can say is that all effort is well rewarded, and this can be for any kind of thing.
May God bless you too.
Greetings @coyotelation ,
How very kind of you to drop by....appreciate your lovely thought-full response to the post.
Oh yes...it is true...somethings are relegated to routine/ 'automatic'...for example; your choice of clothing, hygiene, working out etc. but you did have to at some point think them through.
Indeed, it pays off.
Kind Regards, Bleujay

As always, a post brimming with wisdom from you, my dear friend. What you write is always so exquisitely ingrained in a good conscience that it's worth reading two or even three times... Thank you so much for sharing this...
But today, wow, I also have to say, "What a way to take outdoor photos!" 😍📷... WOW!... 100% worthy of a standing ovation!... And so beautiful that they could be paired with an eloquent watercolor of those exquisitely chromatic sunflowers!...
Have a happy and blessed week with all your loved ones, dear @bleujay friend! 🙏

Happy to hear you enjoyed the post, photographs and painting. High praise indeed.
Thank you for dropping by with your kind words, Discovery Recommendation and tokens....much appreciated.

NB Appreciate your kind reBlog.
Yes, it's really the best if one manages it oneself, that's what I try it when doing my sports, writing on my book or making the necessary preparations to start my business soon. But sometimes it's also nice if other, close people push and motivate me. 😊
The seaside photographies are really beautiful, is that near your place?
I also love your colorful painting of the sunflowers!
Greetings @gen-quimba ,
Lovely to hear from you.
Such a lovely reply....thank you.
Self discipline seems to be very much a part of your character....it will surely be of great assistance when you have a business. We do appreciate the kind encouragement that comes from others...no doubt. ^__^
Thank you for your kind comments regarding the 'Icing'.
I wish it were a place nearby...however it is a bit far away.
Happy to hear your encouraging words with regard to the watercolour....thank you so much.
Kindest Regards,
Bleujay
I love your sunflower painting. It is really beautiful.
I am less disciplined on some general things than I was when I was younger. I'm older and I don't care as much now. LOL !!! I am still disciplined on my main responsibilities though and in how I treat other people. Since I live alone, I get away with more.
I enjoyed your post.
Greetings Jacey,
How very kind of you to drop by with your thoughtful response to the post.
Thank you for your kind compliments....so appreciated hearing you enjoyed the painting and the post. Especially since you are an artist...thank you!
Yes...it makes sense that discipline remains where it counts most.
Kindest Regards,
Bleujay
ahhhh yes. i need to work on thinking before I react or speak.. :P
Greetings @chinito ,
Thank you for dropping by.
Oh yes...it is true for all of us....at least from time to time...thus the reminder of the Principle. ^__^
Kind Regards to you and yours,

I like how you explained the idea of self discipline. It’s true that when we control our own actions and thoughts, life becomes easier and no one else has to correct us. Your words are a good reminder to stay mindful in both our mind and daily habits.
It really shows how small actions and mindful habits can make a big difference in our lives. This was a nice reminder to stay aware of our thoughts and behavior.
