Bill Says: (A Blog About Recovery): DISCIPLINE:

Children need discipline to feel secure; so do adults.

Discipline means taking responsibility for our behavior and the consequences.

Discipline means learning to wait for what we want.

Discipline means being willing to work for and toward what we want.

Discipline means learning and practicing new behaviors.

Discipline means being where we need to be, when we need to be there, despite

our feelings.

Discipline is the day-to-day performing of tasks, whether these be recovery

behaviors or washing the dishes.

Discipline involves trusting that our goals will be reached though we cannot

see them.

We may feel afraid, confused, uncertain. Later, we will see the purpose. But

this clarity of sight usually does not come during the time of discipline. We

may not even believe we're moving forward.

The task at hand during times of discipline is simple: listen, trust, and obey.
