Bit of a deep question

Self-discipline is the hard to achieve if you haven't learned it early in life. It's also easy to lose (from experience) if you don't take care. This time of year after a break in routine I find it can be difficult to pick some of the less enjoyable things I do. One of the reasons the Christmas decorations come down in my house well before 12th Night is to indicate to myself that the holidays are over.
