Discipline, Integrity & Empowerment, What's it mean to, D.I.E?

Of all the things I've failed to master, why is it that I keep coming back to this struggle, with self-discipline?

From self-imposed Discipline comes Integrity, which is the foundation on which Empowerment stands firm. Without this, Change has no impact, no influence, no power.

The four pillars are inter-dependent, like the points of a triangular pyramid (tetroid) and they are: 

Discipline, Integrity, Empowerment, and Change. 

Like a golden capstone, Change is a beacon of hope - Life is Change, Change is Life, thus we first must D.I.E, in order to Live.

To D.I.E is to exercise deliberately, with purpose, Discipline; to maintain and keep our Integrity; and to seek out opportunities and challenges that lead to Empowerment.


---There will be more on this over time as I wrestle with these thoughts but at this time, as I sit and type away, it seems that my struggle with discipline (self-discipline) is THE missing element I've needed to effect real and lasting personal change, self-growth and development. 

While I've stood for the possibility of Integrity and Empowerment, I've never really got beyond "Possibility" i.e. to step it up to a reality. I've been missing something, never quite "got it" until now. So now the question is, do I really stand for such possibility,and what am I willing to do to make it a reality?
