Section 1 | The Miracle of Self Discipline (pg 1)

The miracle of self discipline is the discovery of do it or don't do it but no more excuses.

The quickest way to mediocrity or worse (less) is to do what most people do, taking the easy road and the "short cuts" in life that are all too common. In this way they are taking what are called "The path of least resistance" (easy) and also "The expediency factor" (fast and easy).
To quote Brian Tracy "...most people do what is expedient, what is fun and easy rather than what is necessary for success."

In order to get to that level that you intend to be not only do you have to obey, you also have to be able to do things you don’t want to do when you need to do them! That’s what makes Great Leaders!
