24 Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives the prize? So run that you may obtain it. 25 Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable. 26 So I do not run aimlessly; I do not box as one beating the air. 27 But I discipline my body and keep it under control,[b] lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.

I chose the word discipline because I am beginning a new chapter in my life and I need to adjust to new routines and I also need to learn how to manage my time, money, health, and many other areas of my life efficiently. I feel I have been sabotaging my potential due to a lack of discipline. I am ready to run with a purpose!
