Self control is a principle

Self control is a principle. 

We were taught these principles. We call this self-exposure.

First, its important that we see examples that should serve as our guide. What we hear should be seen in action.

Second, we should be remember that we can better develop this if we have faith that God will help us.

Third, we should put these principles into action. Developing self-control doesn't just happen overnight. It should be habitually practiced. And unless our self-control is put to the test, we will never know if we have already developed the habit.
