Exercising Agency to Choose the Right

“ ‘Moral discipline’ [means] self-discipline based on moral standards. Moral discipline is the consistent exercise of agency to choose the right because it is right, even when it is hard. It rejects the self-absorbed life in favor of developing character worthy of respect and true greatness through Christlike service (see Mark 10:42-45).”
D. Todd Christofferson, “Moral Discipline,” Ensign, Nov. 2009, 105
