You can always do the right thing, even when you do not feel like it.

The right thing always remains the right thing, despite how you feel, even when you may not feel like doing it.

You can always discipline yourself to do the right thing, and therein lies its power. Provided you continue to recognize what the right thing is, remain committed to its value, and do it, you will be on the right path.

“Men are alike in their promises. It is only in their deeds that they differ.” (Moliere)

“Better break your word, than do wrong in keeping it.” (Thomas Fuller)

“Men will wrangle for religion, write for it, fight for it, die for it, anything but live for it.” (Charles Caleb Colton)

Have you ever done the right thing, when it was very difficult to do? If yes, what were the circumstances?
