PROMPT January 29

Everyone did a great job with filling the war chest yesterday! There's so many great prompts and I'm sure Em will love every one of them.

Since today *is* War Chest Wednesday, I'm going to grab one.

What is your favorite virtue? Give a few examples like kindness, cleanliness, tact, truth, generosity. Is your favorite one you possess, or one you simply admire in other people? Do you have a strategy to develop it yourself?

Prompt is courtesy of Kåre เลียม Enga Author Icon

Today is the day
         I must make better then yesterday.

Today is the day
         to deliberately practice one virtue.

Self-Discipline

For the past three or four days I've been practicing self-discipline. This wasn't a conscious choice, in this case it has more to do with earning 500 extra points on Survey Junkie. The conscious choice was to attempt to complete three survey a day from Monday, January 27, through Sunday, February 2. In order to complete three surveys a day I have to be both tenacious and self-disciplined.
