This is an important aspect of life us Muslim men need to live by. Without discipline, we are weak and we can be easily manipulated. If anyone knows your weakness, they can use your weakness to their advantage, so the best way to avoid this is to be disciplined. If you are not disciplined, you're just like water that can take the shape of every bottle. Meaning, someone else can mould you into who they want you to be, they can control you and you wont be able to stop it unless you have DISCIPLINE!
How do you find your weakness?
Simple, your weakness is your desire, a desire that is for your own selfish gains. What do you desire the most in this world? Something that if someone hands it to you right now, you wouldn't hesitate for a second?
I can't find the saying but it was something along the lines of men's weakness being women, power and wealth.
This is why we have sellouts, they are given something in line with their desire and they will sellout their own brothers and sisters for their own selfish gain. IF a man comes to you right now, and tells you - "go against your community then we will hand you all the harem you want, all the power you desire and unlimited wealth", How MANY of YOU GUYS will FALL into this TRAP?
This is a well known strategy shaitan uses to push us into sinning and cause suffering to other people due to our own selfish gains. This is why its crucial to learn how to discipline yourself before its too late.
Discipline allows us to have our own opinions, our own thoughts, our own thinking. Nothing can affect our ideologies, our ways of thinking and operating.
After you find out your weakness, there is always a solution to this weakness
For example - If women are your weakness, learn to control your sexual desires - no fap Semen retention
If power is your desire - Learn to be humble by interacting with people of lower status. Speak to the homeless, to the poor people, ask them how are they? Speak to cleaners, warehouse workers and others who society looks down upon.
If wealth is your desire - be charitable and understand that wealth is only available in this dunya, you can't take your money to your grave, you can't take your cars to your grave. So be more charitable and live a simplistic live where you have minimalistic lifestyle. What you need all those clothes for? what you need all those jewellery for? cars? what you need a big house for?

Finally prayer and doing acts of worship will ultimately help you be disciplined. Start of with prayer and concentrate on the upper middle of the prayer mat while reciting. This will help you have better concentration and you discipline your mind to concentrate whilst getting ajr.
