To understand what is discipline really and what it actual means, let’s look at the origin of the word to find its intent and real form.
The main word of discipline is “disciple,” which comes from the Latin word discipulus it means “student.” Most people believe a disciple is a “follower” (probably because of the religious context), but in reality it means student—as in, “one who studies.”
The word “discipline” is from the Latin word disciplina, meaning “instruction and training.” It is derived from the root word discere—”to learn.”
So what is the meaning of discipline?
Discipline is to study, learn, train and apply a system of standards.
