“Discipline consists of orienting the will towards ends that exceed immediate gratification, demanding perseverance and clarity in the chosen direction. In its exercise, fidelity is expressed to a choice that gives meaning to sustained effort. This practice does not only refer to a form of self-control, but reveals a way of assuming temporality as a field of active construction. To choose with discipline is to affirm a trajectory in the face of the contingent, affirming a structure of meaning that projects beyond the moment. The future does not emerge as chance or rupture, but as the coherent projection of a present governed by decisions that respond to a previously assumed horizon. Anticipating the future requires a rigorous understanding of the present as a space of responsibility, where each act is linked to a previous commitment. In this temporal intertwining, the authenticity of the subject is at stake, the subject who is capable of keeping their word over time without renouncing their transformation.”
