#Discipline

"Winners embrace hard work. They love the discipline of it, the trade-off they're making to win. Losers, on the other hand, see it as punishment. And that's the difference."

"As we grow detached from things, we come (with God's help) to master our desires, and we give the mastery over to God. Discipline and divine grace heal the intellect and the will of the effects of concupiscence. We can begin to see things clearly."

"Whoever submits himself to a super-discipline can expect great triumphs."

"Every man has a specific skill, whether it is discovered or not, that more readily and naturally comes to him than it would to another, and his own should be sought and polished. He excels best in his niche - originality loses its authenticity in one's efforts to obtain originality."

"We must do our work for its own sake, not for fortune or attention or applause."

"Self-respect is the root of discipline: The sense of dignity growswith the ability to say no to oneself."
