Self-Control

Self-control is a must-have virtue for every person who desire to succeed in life, without self-control it is impossible to rise to higher heights. Self-control is the virtue that preserves the wise from destruction whereas self-indulgence is the attitude that leads the foolish to destruction. As a student, self-control will enable you to discipline yourself to have a personal time table and follow it meticulously. Self-indulgence, however, will not permit you to think of personal time table for studies but instead will ask you to follow colleagues to places which will not be profitable. It will not allow you to study until failure knocks your door. As a businessman, you need self-control to enable you to re-invest your little profit, look for more opportunities to expand. The unwise (one without self-control) will rather spend their profits, working capital as well as capital employed and would not have time to research or search efficient ways of profiting until their business collapse. Parents need to exercise self-control to refrain from unnecessary arguments, insults and assaults for the sake of their children.
