Discipline
Discipline is one of the basic requirement of a civilized life. And in student

life, it plays a great role. If everything goes on in a definite routine and the
discipline is maintained then there would not be any chaos anywhere.
Discipline is the backbone of the national unity. Citizens of disciplined nations
can work more smoothly and are filled with the spirit of unity, brotherhood
and co-operation. Anywhere we go discipline is necessary in any institution
whether it is an educational institution, or even in the political field, in social
or religious matters, even on street and even while you are sitting in your
own house. My project discusses all about discipline; in school, at home, in
public etc in the later paragraphs.
Discipline is an important component of student life. Discipline should be
inculcated from a very young age. Talent and genius alone are not enough to
achieve success. Discipline has an equally important role to play. Talents
blossom in a disciplined person.
Discipline has got immense usefulness for us. Like- Discipline leads to
success. If we read in a disciplined way, we can master the subject. If we
labour in a disciplined way, we can make better production. A disciplined
army has immense advantage over an undisciplined army. A small number of
disciplined soldiers can defeat a large number of undisciplined soldiers. A
disciplined life gives us healthy and happiness. A disciplined man is a
virtuous man. Because discipline never admits any vice. Vice never gets a
chance to creep into a disciplined man.
School is the main tutor of discipline for students. The foremost duty of the
school is to teach discipline to their students. As said discipline is the key
point of all success. The students should conduct in a disciplined manner.
They should obey the rules and regulation of the school. They should obey
the direction of their teachers. They should make a regular habit in their dayto-day work as regularity is also a condition for discipline. They should keep
their books, tools and belongings in the most disciplined order. Discipline is
very important in a student's life. He must obey his teachers. He must abide
by the rules in school. If he violates them, he suffers a great deal in his
future. A disciplined student can achieve success. Similarly, a teacher
without discipline in his life cannot be an ideal teacher.
The importance of discipline in educational institutions is well recognized.
There should be a proper balance between discipline and the freedom of the
students. The educational institutions should have a peaceful and calm
atmosphere to enable the students to acquire knowledge. There is growing
discontentment among the students. Because of this discontentment, we
notice that discipline in our schools and colleges has considerably declined.
Students are disrespectful to their teachers. They misbehave in the

classrooms. They organize strikes and take the law into their hands. The
government as well as the educational authorities should undertake
necessary steps to improve the atmosphere in the educational institutions.
Discipline in schools may reduce the violence and vandalism and help the
students to focus better on their studies and career.
Although students are taught the main aspects of discipline from school, the
parents are responsible for the basic disciplines to be taught to their
children. If children are grown up in an atmosphere of love and brotherhood,
they tend to be good citizens. It is the duty of parents to raise their children
in an atmosphere conducive for everybody. The children from divorced
parents and from broken homes are generally indiscipline. Therefore, parents
should bring up their children in a disciplined manner.
A disciplined student does not only have to
be disciplined within school, but also at
home. Children are learning how to behave
and need parents and caregivers to help
them during that process. Because they are
always learning, they will misbehave.
Psychological studies show that behaviors
are more effectively shaped by rewarding
positive behaviors than by punishing
negative ones. Spanking may have the shortterm effect of stopping
an undesired behavior,
but it may have longterm consequences.
Spanking by parents or
others may cause
harm by teaching
children to use
violence and by
showing them that
those who should love
and protect them have
the right to physically
hurt them.

Discipline does not mean only training of mind and character for self-control,
"habit of obedience and observance of rules and laws. The aim of discipline
has always been accommodation, integration and complete identification
with the existing social relationship not alienation from the organization
called society. Students who are disciplined should know how to behave in
society. That shows how well they are brought up and gives more praises
from people. Without discipline, it is very difficult to lead a happy life in
society. There will be indiscipline and chaos if we try to live in our own way.
Both, individual and society will be in jeopardy.
Without discipline there can be no scientific advances, no industrial or
technological achievement, no settled system of law, no exploration and no
development. Discipline is essential for personal growth and national
prosperity. Absence of it can lead to failure, defeat and backwardness.
Respect of parents, teachers and elders should be given importance.
Honesty and integrity and doing a duty with devotion and dedication should
be stressed. There should be a spirit of harmony, co-operation and mutual
respect co-existent among fellow human beings. All should follow the rules
and regulations laid by law. Discipline means full realization of the sense of
responsibility. This will bring progress and prosperity in the society and the
nation. A proper and reasonable balance has to be stuck between liberty and
discipline. The restraints or discipline must course be designed for the social
good and it is obvious that excessive restraints will inevitably lead to the
erosion of human liberties.
Temptations are always there. Only the forms of temptations change. But
those of us who learn the subtle art of self-discipline and self-constraint,
nothing can prevent us from attaining our goals in life. Let us all aim to be a
little more self disciplined from henceforth.
