Discipline

You think aerobics is not a cool sport? I think you are wrong. It requires amazing discipline - flexibility, fitness, knowledge. And you have to do it with a big smile on your face. Also, I once performed in front of 10,000 screaming women. I tell you something, I'd rather do that than kick a ball around in front of a few men.

If we do not master ourselves, we will be a slave to ourselves.

An animal will conquer others. A Spirit-filled man conquers himself – self-discipline, self-control.

Rigid, the skeleton of habit alone upholds the human frame.

When something needs to be ironed I put it in the ironing basket. If a year goes by and the item is still in the basket I throw the item away. This is a good system since eventually I end up only with clothes that don’t need ironing.

I write every day weekdays for about 5 hours, mostly longhand on legal pads. It has gotten neither harder nor easier, sadly or happily.

Practice every time you get a chance.

To automatically be promoted from one class to another without any serious self- discipline, and self- improvement is a cheap life.

The best way to maximize your time is by not wasting time. This requires planning and having an awareness of how you spend your time throughout the day.
