Self-discipline is the key to personal greatness. It is the magic quality that opens all doors for you, and makes everything else possible.

Vinod RaiIt's hard for these athletes to stay healthy. They are constantly being bombarded with unhealthy advertising. Peer pressure can override the body's demand for health. Being healthy goes beyond 'not being sick' (where all lab reports indicate health), to feeling optimistic, energetic, strong and happy with their bodies. Teaching them to take charge of their bodies is a job of coaching. Help them gain discipline in conditioning, nutrition and attitude/emotional control.
John KesselLeft to itself the masculine imagination has very little appreciation for the here and now; it prefers to dwell on what is absent, on what has been or may be.
