Self-control

in Steem4Nigeria3 days ago

My greetings to all the dear #Steem4Nigeria community. I hope everyone is well. After seeing this contest, I was initially thinking about whether to write, but the topic is so similar to my life that I finally decided to write it. I hope you like it.

What is self-control? (Simple explanation)

For me, self-control is not a big deal, but a small matter, maybe it is a big deal for you. Stopping yourself, controlling yourself. Yes, we often do things in a hurry, and then we sit back and think, it would have been better if we hadn't done it. Notice that the middle time, where we could have stopped if we wanted, is actually self-control, which I think. Simply put, it is better to think a little and act after doing what the mind wants, instead of doing it all the time, this is self-control for me.

How do you know if someone has self-control?

This thing is very easy to understand, but to understand it, you have to observe a little. I have seen people who don't get angry easily, or who keep quiet even when they are angry. There is a control in them. Again, if someone reacts to a small word, and then gets sad again. Then it means that he could not control himself at that time. Another thing, people are known during greed. Some take everything when they get the opportunity, while others stop themselves even if they don't want to. This is the real difference in our lives.

Self-control is innate or can it be learned?

I think it is not born with anyone. It comes to us slowly. In my own case, I see that before I used to make decisions in a hurry. When I was angry, I would say something immediately. Later I would understand that I was wrong. It is not that I have become very good yet, but I can stop myself at least a little bit than before. I think this thing actually comes with time and experience. What do you think?

How much can I control myself in the face of temptations and challenges?

To be honest, I can't always. Many times I still make mistakes. However, I have learned one thing, when I am hot-headed, it is better not to make decisions, it is not just for my knowledge but for everyone. But now I try to be quiet, to take my time. In some cases I can stop myself, in some cases I can't. Actually, it's our human nature and habit. But I'm a little better than before, that's all I can say. And I promised myself that I can stay like this.

Finally, I will say one thing, friends, in this small life of ours, self-control does not come in a day. It develops gradually in our minds. If we understand our own mistakes, then one day or another we will learn to control ourselves. That day, we will truly learn to control ourselves completely.

Anyway, let me know how you like these opinions of mine and at the same time I will invite some of my friends to express their opinions. Everyone stay well and stay healthy, thank you all.
