In whatever way works for you, it is so, so important daily to take the time to make connection with your Source. If you do not, then you will not be in touch with your Self. And, if you are not in touch with your Self, you can not “be” your Self.

You are your “most significant other.” If you do not spend time with this most significant part of who you are, you will never be true to your Self nor will you know your Self.

So, some form of meditation, prayer or contemplation is essential in order to connect with your Self and to live the “Good Life.” Hence, in order to become one with your Self, dedication, discipline and being clearly intentional are so important.

One of the fastest ways to become one with your Self is to be disciplined---that is to take time to meditate, pray, as mentioned above and to also exercise, eat well, fast, read uplifting literature, etc.---in other words to take time to develop “order and clarity” in your life and to “be” with your Self.

The word “discipline” and “disciple” come from a Latin root that means to grasp or to comprehend. So, to be disciplined means that you steadfastly focus on something so that in time you truly understand or master it. What could be more important than learning how to be a Master of one’s life?

Very few people have the patience and discipline to apply this kind of focus in their lives. I dare say that most adults have a shorter attention span than children.
