Your explanatory style is simply how you explain events in your life back to yourself. You could also call it your inner dialogue. Behavioral psychologists tell us that 95% of our emotions are based on what we say to ourselves. This is why it is so critical that we engage in the discipline of talking to ourselves. Listening to yourself is passive. Speaking to yourself is active. The enemy wants you to listen to his lies. God wants you to rehearse the truth. The word introspection means to look inside for perspective. Here is my question for you when you look inside for perspective: Are you motivated or discouraged? If the answer is the latter, then it is time to stop listening to yourself all day long and start talking to yourself instead—transforming your inner dialogue into an external one, and going from passive to active.

Life is a constant battle between engaging in activities that are tension relieving vs. goal achieving. Self-discipline is the only counterforce to the Expediency Factor--in other words, doing things that are easy or expedient versus things that may appear to be difficult but that are essential and very important.

The simplest definition of discipline is the ability to make yourself do what you're supposed to do when you're supposed to do it--whether you feel like it or not. We could say discipline is when you exert great effort and achieve something that is not natural for you. Remember, the greatest form of discipline is the discipline you impose on yourself.

There are similarities between the spiritual growth of born-again Christians and the migration experienced by the Children of Israel. The Children of Israel went from being slaves in Egypt to the Promised Land by way of the wilderness. It was one thing to get them out of Egypt, but it was a whole different ball game to get Egypt out of the Children of Israel. Most of us have learned that just because we are born again, it doesn't mean we're experiencing the Promise Land. Join us as we unpack powerful lessons we all need to learn from wilderness-like seasons of our lives! Let's walk into the greatness God called us to!
