Financial discipline is a must for ensuring a comfortable future.
There is enough literature available to take one down the complex roads of financial management. In this piece, the focus is on 'financial discipline', which is not just an elementary aspect, but a scarcely addressed one, too.
If you have ever heard a person say to you, “Please keep this money with you. I will take it when I need it for a specific purpose. It will just get spent if it is with me”, that is financial discipline. It is an ability to recognise one’s own capacity, potential, planning for the future and recognising the challenges. Financial discipline nurtures and guards your resources responsibly. It helps you ensure that you have money for the major certainties of life.
Purchases made on a whim have the unique ability to drain our income and savings—the primary reason people are unable to stick to a discipline. Therefore, what also constitutes indiscipline is, not having a financial plan in place, as it is more challenging to regulate expenses in the absence of personal money management guidelines. Those successful in managing personal finances have stuck to discipline either by acquiring the skills or taking the assistance of products structured to reward discipline.

A golden girl
One of India's most formidable beauties passed away earlier this month. The odd thing is she would absolutely hate this obituary; she hated being written about and avoided publicity for all of her nine decades. Indira Aswani was 93 when she died. But anyone who encountered her, even briefly, was in such awe of her grace and poise, and one could not but remember her forever.

India is not a controlling big brother
Prime Minister Tshering Tobgay considers India a benevolent elder sibling as the \"big brotherly attitude\" is happily missing from bilateral ties. He thinks the relationship shared by the two countries has become a model of friendship not just for the region, but for the entire world. \"India's attitude is definitely not of a big brother who is controlling and does not allow the little brother to blossom and grow,\" says Tobgay in an exclusive interview with THE WEEK.
