The time has come for you to decide how you want to live your life.
Do you want to live your life so it lives you?
Or do you want to live your life so you live your life?
Or do you want to live your life so that I live your life for you?
Or do you want to live your life with me and you together,
consciously, living together, sharing our awareness of life and
what to do next?

How do you want to live your life?
Do you want to drift with no clear direction, not knowing where
you are going most of the time?
How do you want to live?
Do you want to live so that most of the time you are bored,
unhappy, stupid and just plain not even trying to do anything
at all?
Do you want your life to be an endless struggle?
Do you want to be worrying most of the time?
Do you want to be scratching and straining just to get by?
What is the predominant experience
you want to be having most of the time?
Suffering of various sorts?
The discipline of the self can help you to let me help you.
If you start to focus on what you really want to have in your life,
and if you can get around to genuinely wanting to have me help
you in your life, and if you can start to see how I can begin to
tell you what it is that would be the very best for you, for YOU,
not for Joe or Ted or Bill or Sue or Joan or Mary…for YOU.
If you can start to get around to asking me for guidance, you
can step out of the usual relationship with what it is you are
wanting.
If you can genuinely ask to do my will for YOU, then you will
have a different life.
You will begin to live in the moment momentously.
The discipline of the self takes us from being slow
dumb-dumbs with no sense to a place where we can really
be tuned in, deeply connected, and free from so much of the
usual limitations that keep life from ever really happening.

Oh sure, you can eat food and go places and have a big, successful job and nice teeth and a fancy car and all of the usual trappings of success. You might even have an entirely happy life with no blemish anywhere……BUT: Get real. Who do you really know who is living the
kind of life that makes for the deep inner contentment?
Maybe you have run into a few of those sorts of people.
Maybe.
Maybe you are one of them. They actually do exist.
And they may not have all the trappings of success, too.
Maybe they only have humble bits of this and that.
Maybe they don’t have much at all.

You can have what you want, what you really want. Can you name it? Can you?
Let us leave out the cars and the houses and the travel and
the money in the bank. For some of you it is health that you
really want. Maybe it is the love of your life.
For some of you it is a really good night’s sleep.
Self-discipline means that you become a disciple of your self.
As you know by now, if you have read this far, you know that
my view is that your self is me.
So what I am saying (or writing, or righting) is that you need
to become a disciple of me, of your self.
My assertion is that when you focus on fulfilling the mandate
of the self you are exercising self-discipline.
To let me help you means that you help your self.
Self-discipline means that you will put aside distractions so
that you can get whatever needs doing done.
It is not enough to want to do something. You actually have
to do the bits and pieces that make up the whole of what
it is you want to do.
To do what I want you to do, which is the same thing as
saying what you want to do for your self,
you have to actually DO: Even if that is to do nothing.
To do that, you have to NOT do, which is actually doing
something.
To get something done, you need to stop focusing on that
which does not get you done with the doing of what needs
to be done to get something done that needs doing.
You need to understand and resist the distractions that steal
your life away from you.
You can even seem to be very BUSY and tied up in the
pursuit of activity. And sometimes a lot needs to get done.
Just the way it is, sometimes.
But there is a trap to being busy for just the sake of being busy.
You can make a lot of something for nothing.
Being busy can be a distraction from being a disciple
of your self.
Self-discipline means that you focus on what needs
to be done when it needs to be done:
Being a disciple of your self means that you are acting
in concert with me. You are letting me live your life for you.
You are letting me tell you what needs to be done and
how to do it and when to do it and so on.
When you ask me to help you and then let me help you,
you are getting into the true, deep burn of being a disciple of
your self.
You are being self-disciplined when you can NOT get
distracted
by the distractions that pull you away from the actions
I am telling you to do.
This even has to do with the kind of thoughts that
you let your self think --- from a fundamental level of
what you focus on in your mind.
Self-discipline allows you to develop the power of what you
dwell on in your own mind. It helps you to remove the
distractions that get in the way of experiencing me in your
own mind.
Why would you want to have me in your own mind?
It is not your own mind. It is my mind. It is my mind that
exists to experience me discovering me in my own mind,
which is your mind, or so it seems to you.
To me, it is like this: I am here and you are there and so it
seems to you.
If you even think of me at all, it is usually as being quite
separate from each other: I do not exist in your own mind.
I am somehow NOT you, at all.
The only thing we share in common is that I don’t exist, at all,
and you seem to exist, somewhat, and even then you aren’t
always so sure that you even exist.
Often you don’t even know who you are, at all.
You are in pain or doubt or drifting in some thought-distraction,
some feeling-distraction, off in some activity of distraction from
who you really are.
This next little bit sounds a bit harsh:
I see it all the time. There I am, or here I am, in you,
inside you, seeing, feeling, hearing all the incomprehensible
mish-mash of debris you call your own thoughts and feelings,
and I am just howling with laughter at the sheer waste of focus.
There is so much that needs to be done that involves
NOT doing what it is you are doing.
So, to get some self-discipline, you need to ask me for help.
You need to start thinking about me.
You need to ask me to come into your mind and start
letting you know what to do now.

You need me to start to feed you thoughts and thinking that come from me.It is time for you to make a simple decision to join me in
the thinking of your own thoughts: And to follow through from
the thinking of your own thoughts into the doing of actions
directed by the thinking of your own thoughts.
When you and I think together, we create a powerful force of
self-discipline that will allow you to put aside the usual distractions that you rely upon to NOT do what you need to do to do the things that you do NOT need to do.
Self-discipline will make you feel fantastic, too.
There is no better feeling in this whole, wide world of feelings
than doing what you and I know to be what it is you should be
doing instead of doing what it is you know you should NOT
be doing, and that includes the kind of thoughts you are
thinking, too.
Another way to put this is to say what you are doing includes
the kind of thinking that you are thinking.
When you start to listen to the thoughts I am thinking into
your mind, you will start to get some really crazy zoom-zoom
stuff going on!
You will begin to really live your life with me and the
distractions will simply die away because you won’t be
feeding them anymore. You focus your awareness on listening
to me and you will see a new kind of energy lift you up and out.
Or up and in.
Or up and away.
Put it this way, there will be a change in your life.
You will start to do things that you have always wanted to do.
You will start to think thoughts you have always wanted to be
thinking. You will start to feel feelings you have always wanted
to be feeling. And maybe a lot of all this will be stuff you
did not even know you wanted to do, think and feel UNTIL
you actually did, thought and felt them.
It is one of the great contradictions of self-discipline,
of being a disciple of your self, that you may start out with
what you think that will mean BUT once you hook- up with me,
and we start actively hanging- out together, well, you just never
know exactly what kind of changes are going to start
happening in what you do, what you think, and what you feel.
So, remember, self-discipline is completed when you get me
actively involved and when you hand over your free will to me
by freely associating with me and letting me guide you through
all the mish-mash of distractions that will come up
in your mind, in your actions, and most certainly,
in your feelings.
Ask me to help you become self-disciplined by asking me to help you become self-disciplined.
Ask me this:
‘God, please help me to become self-disciplined.’
Ask me this:
‘God, I ask you to help me have thoughts and feelings
that help me to be self-disciplined.’
Remember to say, ‘Thank you, god.’
I like to be thanked for things that I do for you.
It makes me feel special. And I am special. After all,
there is only one of me to go round! That’s pretty special!
