“It has always been my thought that the most important single ingredient to success in athletics or life is discipline. I have many times felt that this word is the most ill-defined in all of our language. My definition isas follows: 1. Do what has to be done; 2. When it has to be done; 3. As well as it can be done; and 4. Do it it that way all the time.” WayWellsImportantDoneLife IsLanguageFeltSportsLeadershipDisciplineIllDefinitionsDefinedIngredientsMy ThoughtsAthletics Author:Bobby Knight

“There are a lot of things that can be learned from the darker corners of athletics. You have doctors who view bodybuilders as cavalier amateurs of science. And then you have the bodybuilders who view the doctors as too conservative to do anything interesting. So I've tried to become the middleman for putting some of those pieces together.” TogetherInterestingViewsPiecesDoctorsConservativeCornersAthleticDoctor WhoAthleticsBodybuilderMiddlemen Author:Tim Ferriss

“The study of motivation goes back to the Greeks. Their sports were essential to their education. They saw in sports the integration of body, mind and soul, the creation of beauty, the mastering of athletics, and the challenge of competition. A French sociologist points this out. "Sports," he wrote, was part of the education of the citizen. He was expected to engage in exercise for a whole series of reasons that had to do with the shaping of the citizen; the relation between moral good and physical good; and the growth of a person.” MindPersonsSoulReasonWholeBodyMotivationSportsGrowthChallengesMoralStudySawsCreationCitizensExerciseEssentialsRelationCompetitionSeriesExpectedGreekIntegrationVitalityAthleticsSociologistsMind Body And Soul Author:George A.
