I got your view, being undisciplined can occur at any settings be it in gambling or on other field that has to involve people relating to each other, which could also qonote that gambling is but the highest order of where indiscipline can be achieved, people set the pace for being disciplined in their own capacity to avoid any unnecessary impression below the expected target they so desired to arrived at, we need to call ourselves back to order if we noticed strange behaviors in our gambling experience, take an effective control measures and make moves to apply them as rescue, this may not have to be with gamblers alone, anyone can fall a victim and we can observe this before things get outrageous.

I do understand you and your point in this matter just that we do not totally aligned in some part of your submission. We can both agree that there is a big difference between a disciplined gambler and an undisciplined gambler.
That gamble that is discipline will always know when to stop gambling for that particular day. He will also know how much attention to give gambling and how much to give his work and family he will set out budget such that whenever the budget is exhausted, he will stop. But there is another level of discipline which I have also highlighted because you mentioned gambling is for entertainment. So a highly disciplined man should rather look for other ways to entertain himself rather than gambling. @Fredomago understood me better.

You are correct mister, lack of discipline in a man's life is not right at all, a man must have some discipline not only because of gambling but in everything he does, what doesn't require discipline anyway? It's the same reason my father used to say that your downfall begins when you allow someone else to handle your business for you.

Even if they don't steal from you, they still can't manage your business as you would, and to become a successful businessman you need to be disciplined, whatever plans or strategies you have in mind will become successful only with discipline.

Some people doesnt really welcome nor really have that kind of personality which do loves on hearing out other peoples suggestion when it comes to spending their own money. You would really be having those main

thoughts on "who the hell are you on stopping me on what i do?". This would be the main line that would be printed out on your mind and this is why its really that something useless if you do make out some advises into those people who are already addicted to gambling.Some might listen but majority of them would really be definitely be trying out to play no matter what other people would be saying. You should really be setting out the limits no matter what because if you arent really that good when it comes to this then most likely you would really be going into the path where addiction is really that severe.

Gambling isnt bad as long you are doing it moderately, things becomes messy if you are going into the path on which treating up gambling just some sort of money making machine or making it as an income.
You would definitely be putting yourself on huge trouble.

All the opinions point to the same thing, if there is not enough will, the bears get out of control, there is no way that one, as a friend of a person who drives his own money, intervenes and tells him not to crawl anymore, because things They are not like that , you reach a point where you can give advice, but the money belongs to that person, the bad thing is that when you get to the point that you are winning a lot of money, and that you continue to play and bet a lot, you have to stop, and it sounds pretty That's bad, but it's the best, because casinos have that peculiarity that makes you think you're going to keep winning and when you see it, it's that you no longer have anything, and that feeling is what drives you to fall into addiction to take that money you I was winning before.

Discipline is at different levels. And as you also noted it is based on individual differences. Someone who is very disciplined can gamble as long as they want without being addicted. Which means they are either sticking to their budget or decision. But someone whose disciplines is not mature can easily be influenced by colleagues or peer groups to change their decisions.
Meanwhile, a disciplined someone will actually know when they are getting addicted and withdrawal from intensive gambling. It doesn’t even take discipline to do that, rather it takes conscience.

I agree that there are many people which are very disciplined by nature but still they are engaged in gambling activities because they find gambling as a way of entertainment. The only difference between those disciplined gamblers vs the undisciplined ones it that the disciplined ones always try their best to do gambling activities when they have completed their work and they also make low bets just to enjoy gambling as a fun activity.

The undisciplined gamblers on other hand try to make very high value bets and as a process they end up loosing everything they have. The undisciplined gamblers are most prone to getting addicted to gambling because they get so indulged into the activity that they forget about their work and family life. That's why a disciplined gambler doesn't need to end up gambling because he/she is only doing it as a fun activity and gambling isn't affecting his/her life in any adverse way.

@Zoomic, don't get it wrong first, being self disciplined does not mean you should not engage in gambling, also not all gamblers are undisciplined, we have people that doesn't gamble but have the highest order of indiscipline, this is an individual responsibility to take care of, if you think you want to gamble, you can chose to have a disciplined lifestyle with your gambling or not to, also for every undiscipline gambler comes addiction following, because they will always want to behave the way they want at any cost not minding what others may say.

That is why we must have good self-control so that we are not careless and instead play gambling at will and do not pay attention to the limits. This causes many gamblers to lose large amounts of money, but they still don't realize it. If we can see and think about how much money we have used for gambling, we should stop and rest to reduce stress after playing. It is also useful for us to see what we can do so that our minds can be distracted by doing other things.

However we control, when we are in a good mood and luck when playing. there's a greater chance we won't be aware of all the controls you mention. I'm sure that's how many gamblers feel, because I feel that too.
even though I limit my betting to a certain amount to keep me from playing deeper when I receive a loss. still, when the mood is good, it will be difficult for me to leave the game and decide to keep betting.
some gamblers may have good control when it comes to big wins. but when the game still doesn't show results, we can only play until our money runs out.

Discipline is indeed important when playing games and betting, let alone gambling, because that way you can make yourself more controlled so you don't get too deep and addicted, but before playing too deep, it's important to convince yourself whether you are ready for the risks you will get, because there are always risks. when betting too deep and gambling seriously.

It's true with your words of advice, that you should just avoid gambling if you don't want to face big risks in gambling, because gambling and betting have risks that must be understood, most gamblers always think that gambling can give you victory and wealth when in fact it's very difficult, gambling just be wise and enjoy the game, don't go overboard because behind it all there is a risk that must be borne even if it's just for entertainment.

Great point, there's always other alternative if you are really have that kind of discipline and you don't want to mess up with your life, especially in terms of finances, gambling at the beginning will be taken as a source of entertainment but if you mismanage your participation most of the time can lead you to addiction that will affect your finances.

Self-discipline might help, but if you are not a fan of taking the risk, it's better to find another way of being entertained and enjoy things
away from any gambling activities.

Anyone that has the level of self discipline you described above will not even gamble at the fist place. Even if we agree that gambling ought to be for fun. A highly principle person will chose to find fun in other things and not in gambling. No matter how discipline anyone is, if they start to gamble and gamble more offen, there is a great tendency that will begin to lose their discipline.
It is at this point that he is supposed to understand that they are going a bit far according to Op. If they don't retrace at this point,  they are heading straight to addiction which is the extreme of it all.

Totally agree on this one since you could eventually point out these basic things which we know that even using up your own common sense would really be that enough for you to be wary about the potential risks and what are the things that should be done for you to not to mess up with gambling activity but yet some people are already still that become devastated by it on which this had been the common cycle in speaking about gambling field. Each person does have their different personality when it comes to various things on which neither they would really be having that good self control and discipline or they would really be just simply tolerating on things
which arent supposed to be tolerated on the first place knowing that it do impose up some risks which it would lead up into huge disaster and ending up on having that huge regret. In overall, gambling isn't really that bad since its been built up because of leisure and entertainment but those casino or gambling site or place owners are really taking up the consideration on making this as an advantage since we know that they do always win at the end. Yes, there might be people who do got rich by gambling but the numbers are really just that less for us to boast on but naturally this had been the main reason on why some or most gamblers do have in mind
on which trying out to hit up a jackpot or huge win for them to satisfy their cravings and interest.

I guess it's good if you can help just one person, but in reality the people who are reading this advice likely already know it and the people who are not reading it are not interesting in seeking it out either. Most gamblers know the basics when it comes to trying to set a budget, but their habit tends to overrule any strict limits that they might have set for themselves. It is important to mention drink and drugs, because that can often lower your inhibitions and take you down a wasteful path when you're throwing lots of money into a casino. When you're talking about physical casinos, just to emphasize the point about how it loosens your wallet up, they'll often give away free drinks to players because they make so much back on the tables.

This is a good move and it pays to give a break from gambling which is one of the ways we can at least regain our possible and get a better strategy while we take a rest and wait for when we regain our strength. Gambling is not meant to be a continual attempt.

 it is very important for us to at least rest and so some other things that will help us to fix ourselves before going back to gambler especially whenever we have a big win. It is not always good for us to go back to gambling immediately whenever we have a big win. We are meant to take a rest and engage in other things that worth our time not always sticking and ready to make a bet.

For me what I do to maintain my gambling budget is that I do not gamble daily I set out Saturday and Sunday as my gambling days, If I failed to win on those days I have to wait for another Saturday and Sunday to gamble again. With this method, I always maintain my gambling budget and also be less addicted to it.

Learning self-discipline and implementing self-discipline are two different things IMO.  It is easier to learn self-discipline but applying it to our activity needs time and effort.  Those who practice it for a very long time have high resilience to gambling addiction while a person new to it can be easily tempted and give in to the temptation and pleasure of gambling.  They will have difficulty moderating their gambling activity until they lose their senses and become a gambling addict.



True that, since many gamblers tend to play to entertain, they put their guard down and play gambling to their heart's content abandoning the fact that gambling should be played moderately.

Honestly I really agree with you, it should be in gambling discipline needs to be done and they should be more focused in paying attention, for example they bet well but they see every round they get is very bad, then they should move to another game and look for some rounds that look better. Most passions will attack us when we are too determined to get a win when the spin itself looks very bad, so utilizing all possibilities will be better even if you still lose in the end. Basically whatever preparations we have prepared beforehand such as self-control, in the end we can still forget all that if we are mentally and psychologically disturbed and will eventually get emotional, most of those who lose a lot of money in gambling are none other than because of too great ambition.
So, well actually it's not too complicated, just do it with a relaxed mind and enjoy it, if indeed you are lucky then victory will definitely come.

Not many gamblers can have good self-discipline because when they start gambling and find pleasure, the average gambler will forget to have or maintain self-discipline. They will forget to stop because they feel that this is the time for them to get win, and this causes them to continue gambling. Tips for self-discipline are always mentioned when playing gambling because that can help us prevent many losses and not become addicted or addicted in the future. And it is true that if someone is an addict, he will do anything to keep gambling.
