DISCIPLINE: While the word discipline has the same root as the word disciple, suggesting the relationship between a loving student and teacher, for many the practice of being disciplined can be accompanied by an attitude of self-correction and chastisement, especially for those who were raised in a more punitive culture or family. When this attitude is present, people resist or rebel against being disciplined resulting in a lack of follow through on their goals and intentions. In turn, further self-criticism and efforts to be more disciplined often ensue (efforts that are likely to fail). Essentially, what looks like rebelling, derailing their efforts, and resisting being disciplined may actually be a self-loving reaction to a punitive atmosphere that really needs to change.
