ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Message discipline

Message discipline means carefully planning and sticking to a specific message or idea. Imagine you have a toy and you want to show it to your friends, you would not talk about all the different parts of the toy, you would stick to a simple message like "this is my favorite toy", and repeat that message over and over. In a similar way, when people want to communicate a message or a story, they choose a simple message and stick to it by using the same few words or phrases. This is important so that everyone who hears the message understands exactly what it is about and remembers it. Just like how repeating a song or a rhyme makes it easier to remember. So, message discipline means staying on topic and keeping the message simple to make sure that people remember it.
