We all have dreams. But in order to make dreams come into reality, it takes an awful lot of determination, dedication, self discipline and effort. ~Jesse Owen
Jesse Owen definitely had all of these. If you have a goal and you are serious about it, it will take all of these to get there. Self discipline is what keeps us on track when our dedication and determination start to run out. It is like a muscle. It can be strengthened through appropriate exercise.

COL Mikel J. Burroughs Lt Col Charlie Brown Self-Discipline is the difference between regret and reward, succumbing to failure and overcoming it. The world expects the military/veteran to exercise self-discipline, the one in the mirror demands and delivers it.
