Enjoy your discipline!

Posted on Jan 16th, 2007 by Leendert : Illuminator ES Leendert
I use to look for extremities to enjoy myself, driving fast, race-cars, fast horse-riding, join the Army (?!, jump out of an airplane (with a parachute), fly an airplane, Hike trough the Middle East (fun!), back-back to Thailand, you know the usual (lol).

It really pushed my creativity and spontaneous behaviour, from the OUTSIDE! On the inside I felt numb. It needed to be more and more extreme to get the results. This way my life was going nowhere...I had fun but not in a particular direction. That all has stopped. Because I learned about the true nature of discipline. Nothing better against a possible depression then discipline. The word does have a little bit of negative imago, but structure in my life quantumized my effectiveness with at least 400%. Structure and discipline drives the fun and leisure to a much more valuable and continues level.
 
I am learning more and more to find a balance between fun and leisure and structure and discipline.
