Discipline

When you must do something but you don’t want to — that’s discipline.

It is like a muscle. The more you are able to do it, the stronger it becomes. Conversely, the more you fail to do it, the weaker.

You can’t achieve anything without discipline. There isn’t much you can’t achieve with it.

Stay Positive

They tell you to stay positive. Yet circumstances may not allow you to be positive. If the circumstances you are facing are harsh enough, then it becomes virtually impossible to “stay positive” — the likely outcome is too depressing.

But if there is some light at the end of the tunnel — real light, not false hope — then the fresh air of actually being positive, as opposed to the shallow trick of telling yourself to stay positive, breezes in and resuscitates.
