Discipline is freedom. You may disagree with this statement, and if you do you are certainly not alone.

In fact the opposite is true. As Stephen R. Covey once wrote, the undisciplined are slaves to moods, appetites and passions.
And in the longer term, the undisciplined lack the freedom that comes with possessing particular skills and abilities - e.g. to play a musical instrument or speak a foreign language.
Self-discipline involves acting according to what you think instead of how you feel in the moment.
Often it involves sacrificing the pleasure and thrill of the moment for what matters most in life. Therefore it is self-discipline that drives you to:

- Go to the gym when all you want to do is lie on the couch and watch TV
