“I've always relied on discipline to achieve goals great and small. At a young age, my father instilled a real work ethic in me - and a fear of men. I always felt like if I didn't have a natural knack for something, I could kind of out-discipline the competition as it were. So I would always work as hard as I possibly could, sometimes to my own detriment and my personal life. For me, I think will power and discipline are very synonymous.” IfsThinkingMenKindRealSometimesHardAgeYoungFatherFeltGoalNaturalMy OwnAchieveDisciplineEthicsCompetitionPersonal LifeWork EthicYoung AgeWill PowerKnackReal WorkAchieving Goals Author:Ryan Reynolds

“In order to achieve something, in competition with the powerful and smartly wielded influence of corporations, we need to join forces and be as well-organized as they are. This does not come natural to us more intellectual types, as we tend to be averse to hierarchy and groupthink; we don't like to be part of anything like a disciplined and well-organized team or movement. But the alternative is to continue losing politically - which means continued failure to protect the world's poor, who are really bearing the brunt of our disorganization.” WorldNeedsWellsMeanDoeOrderForceNaturalPoorPowerfulTeamInfluenceAchieveMovementTypeProtectIntellectualLosingCompetitionAlternativesCorporationsOrganizedHierarchyGroupthinkDisorganization Author:Thomas Pogge
