Self-control is a quality that is essential. It is important that we have control over our being or else it will end up controlling us, and if this should happen it may end up destroying us and affecting the people around us at the long run. Breaking a habit, just like drug addiction can be difficult but with determination it is possible.
One of the reasons why people remain in a type of lifestyle or habit is because they feel that they have far too deep into it and think it is impossible to break free from it. But that is just a common lie that the devil puts in the hearts of people. Nothing happens by accident. We need to be determined if we are expectant of a change.
There are times in our lives that we need to take a look at certain things in our lives and ask ourselves if it is either benefiting to our lives or the opposite. We can't be helped if first of all we are not willing to help ourselves. We should be disciplined enough to starve any appetites that is capable of ruining our lives.
