Importance of discipline

“Discipline is the soul of an army. It makes small numbers formidable; procures success to the weak, and esteem to all” -George Washington

Discipline plays a very important role in the day-to-day life of everyone. In order to lead a simple and smooth life, discipline is key.

In a student’s life, responsibility and discipline are very essential when it comes to achieving success. Professional life also needs co-operation and punctuality which add lots of creativity, responsibility and profit to the jobs or business.

In both these stages, there is a particular time span to submit the assignments and projects, where late submissions are not allowed. The main motive to set a deadline for submissions is to understand “punctuality”. Students who fail to submit their assignments on the deadline have to face many obstacles and cross-questioning in their way. That is the time when a student understands the importance of discipline.

There are many ways where an ideal teacher always tries his or her best to make their students understand the depth of promptness. One of the ways is when latecomers have to stand outside the class and are strictly punished. However, in professional life too, it also matters a lot.

Discipline helps to address develop a society that is both peaceful and respectful. Therefore, it would be right to say that discipline plays an integral role in every aspect of life. It not only helps to maintain regularity, but also keeps you calm and composed which makes the person focused.
