SELF-DISCIPLINE MEANS - You do what is BENEFICIAL NOT WHAT is Pleasurable. You are not focused on gratification, Not on Pleasure but on What is beneficial, What is Productive.

In great enthusiasm, he climbed up, plucked a few of them, and threw them down, but when he liked towards the ground he began scared. How will I go down> If my foot slips, there’ll be no stooping?
