Connection to discipline and your ego
Political slant towards mentally obese
Subcutaneous and visceral fat (is you mind that way?)
 
Step Dad beat my brothers and I - I’m commanded to still honor my mother, you must discipline yourself but sometimes it comes at a price - Using logic to justify your stance - or justify a wrong doing
 
Wrong habits - “by what standard”
Society uses them to enforce their agenda* WEAK - or do you take it upon yourself to change for the sake of your family
 
FEAR - false evidence appearing real, but is it really there? It sure feels like it
*human emotions - fear, sex and love ; sex and love are creative, but our nature is to over-indulge (we must discipline) same with fear, it will limit - ESPECIALLY when you farm your brain’s decision making capability off to someone else. That’s your fault.
 
@jocko willing - Easy path, not allows for strength and will, not accepting weakness
 
All accurate thought requires the co-operation with the facility of reason
Power of your words - FREEDOM to exercise discipline and will in your life
 

Relationships - how does this apply?
 
It applies when you do not exercise discipline or facilities you are FULLY CAPABLE of controlling, and sabotage relationships - Marines that I worked alongside (they felt like all I wanted to was to sell them something - it was because I did) People that I loved no longer, allowing over-indulgence in alcohol, sports, or other endeavors create distance that couldn’t be reconnected.
