Discipline and Process
Don’t you hear the gentle whisper of discipline beckoning you? Why then do you turn a deaf ear to her call? Have you not experienced her unwavering reliability?
You understand deep down that shortcuts are mere illusions. So why do you insist on hastening the natural rhythm of existence, which lies beyond your control? Why burden yourself with expectations of grandiose outcomes, knowing they too are beyond your grasp?
It's time to heed the call of discipline. Trust in the process, for therein lies the essence of true harmony. Embrace each moment as it unfolds, accepting both the challenges and the blessings they bring.
In this embrace, you align yourself with the innate rhythm of nature, sparing yourself from unnecessary frustration and despair. Should feelings of discouragement arise, let them serve as fuel to propel you forward, or simply release them with a simple exhale.
Remember the wisdom of Epictetus: "Don't hope that events will turn out the way you want. Welcome events in whichever way they happen. This is the path to peace."
You serve yourself best when embracing discipline, you find solace, resilience, and a profound sense of peace.
