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.
