This Week's Theme: SELF DISCIPLINE
The ability to control one's feelings and overcome one's weaknesses; the ability to pursue what one thinks is right despite temptations to abandon it.
Self-discipline is the ability to control yourself and to make yourself work hard or behave in a particular way without needing anyone else to tell you what to do. (Collins English dictionary)
Discipline and training of oneself, usually for improvement. (Dictionary.com)

Are you now ready to take on the world? A challenge for all of us.... set one smart goal that will help you this school year become a better student. Maybe it's related to organization, or waking up on time, or controlling your anger when you hear rumors about you, or how and when you are going to do an assignment for a subject you don't like. Goals are personal, and only you can decide what it is you want to improve upon
