A person who is trained to consider his actions, to undertake them deliberately, is in so far forth disciplined. Add to this ability a power to endure in an intelligently chosen course in the face of distraction, confusion, and difficulty, and you have the essence of discipline.
-John Dewey

I am aware of my actions and I listen to myself in ways in order to make sure that I can improve upon myself. Today I will take an extra effort to listen to my innerself.
