Arjun loved playing games on his tablet. He played in the morning… in the afternoon… and sometimes even after his mother said, “Time for homework!”
One day, his teacher announced a Math Star Test.
Arjun wanted to win the shiny gold star so badly!
That evening, Arjun sat with his tablet in one hand and his books in the other.
“Game first… or study first?” he wondered.
Then he remembered what his father always said:
“Self-discipline means doing the right thing even when it’s hard.”
Arjun slowly put his tablet away and opened his book.
It wasn’t easy. He wanted to play again and again…
But every time he felt distracted, he set a little alarm for 20 minutes and said,
“Study first, play later.”
Day by day, Arjun followed his new rule:
✅ Study time
✅ Short break
✅ Play time
On the day of the test, Arjun felt confident.
When the results came, his name was on the board—
⭐ Math Star: Arjun!
His teacher smiled,
“You earned this with self-discipline.”
Arjun looked at his golden star and whispered,
“My alarm gave me the real superpower.”
From that day on, Arjun used his Golden Alarm for everything—homework, practice, and even bedtime.
Because he learned that self-discipline helps dreams come true.
Moral: Self-discipline helps us do the right thing—even when it’s difficult.
