Self-Control (OPP: Self-Indulgence)
Definition: The instant obedience to the initial promptings of God’s spirit.
Self control is definitely one that I struggle with, but I see it every where. I have been working on the instant part but it is so hard to obey my mom when she tells me to do something that I don’t agree with. I am working really hard on this and I know with the help of God that I can obey my mom know mater how difficult it might be.
I definitely see self control in class a lot but even that sometimes is hard to. When the teacher tells us to do something it is really easy to obey instantly or not obey right away. From what I see in class some people are really good at this character clue but I know that I am not. I also know that with the help of God that I can have this character easily.
Thriftiness (OPP: Extravagance)
Definition: not letting myself or others spend on that which is not necessary.
Thriftiness is definitely one that I know that every one have trouble with just like me. When I go to a store or I go to a gift shop I feel like I real want to buy something but I just want to get it because I am at the store. It really stinks but this happens to me every time I go to the store or gift shop. I just recently actually realized that I just bought those things because I just wanted to get something. From now on I make sure that when I go some where to shop I should only get something if I can’t find it some where else.
