Self-discipline

Our powerful word for the month is self-discipline. Discipline means making yourself do what's right, fair and necessary even when you don't feel like it. Studies show that discipline is twice as important in predicting academic success as intelligence. Let's work hard this month on controlling our mind, body and actions!! Let's be like the wise old owl:


A wise old owl sat in a tree

The more he saw, the less he spoke;

The less he spoke, the more he heard;

Why aren't we all like that wise old bird?
