Miyamoto Musashi - How To Build Your Self Discipline

Focus on one thing and broaden your horizons in it.

Miyamoto dedicated his life to mastering the sword, and even though he learned just one art, he knew how to express it in thousands of ways.

In a world filled with countless possibilities, he filtered any noise outside of his chosen path and fully grasped the skills he intended to pursue.

Miyamoto left a comfortable life to fulfill his dreams, and even after gaining huge notoriety, he still didn't pursue luxury.

He believed in prioritizing what was useful, and his almost surreal self-control, determination and discipline helped him achieve his goals.

Live with integrity and preserve your honor.

Live a Nobel life with a set of virtues including honor, honesty, integrity, courage, loyality, respect, and compassion.

Miyamoto's philosophy, the bushido, is a set of virtues followed by the samurais to live a moral and noble life.

Honor is the glue between all virtues, and developing discipline often leads directly to improving honor.

In a world where instant pleasure has never been more easily accessible, we need to look to those who succeeded in finding meaning and fighting pleasures like Miyamoto.

Discipline is a quality that has been revered by human beings since the dawn of time, and by embodying it, we ensure that our independence is respected and our dreams are fulfilled.
