Why you cannot escape mind's trap?

If you are governed by the compulsions, you will never experience freedom. The more you let those urges to be the forcing factor that determines your actions, you become a slave to those compulsions.

The best way to escape slavery and say "NO" to these compulsions is to practice discipline. You are free when you are no longer run by those compulsions.
"Only the disciplined can know what true freedom really is."

Here are some books that would guide you through your process of discipline.
