Discipline By Eguriase S. M. Okaka Discipline is the quality of being in control of one’s behavior as a result of constant training. Discipline also means being well-behaved. A disciplined person is one who shows ability to control his or her behavior.

Some of these people in these communities or nations are poor and weak while others are rich and strong. The need to prevent oppression and intimidation among the people and make them continue to live together happily in peace and harmony led to the concept of human rights.
