“It is essential... that discipline should not be practised like a rule imposed on oneself from the outside, but that it becomes an expression of one's own will; that it is felt as pleasant, and that one slowly accustoms oneself to a kind of behaviour which one would eventually miss, if one stopped practising it.” IfsShouldKindFeltMissingExpressionDisciplineEssentialsOneselfPleasantBehaviour Author:Erich Fromm
“Studying music encourages self-discipline and diligence, traits that carry over into intellectual pursuits and that lead to effective study and work habits. An association of music and math has, in fact, long been noted. Creating and performing music promotes self-expression and provides self-gratification while giving pleasure to others. In medicine, increasing published reports demonstrate that music has a healing effect on patients. For all these reasons, it deserves strong support in our educational system, along with the other arts, the sciences, and athletics.” GivingLongArtSelfReasonFactsStrongPleasureHealingSupportStudyEffectsExpressionHabitDisciplineCreatingIntellectualDeserveMedicinePatientEducationalMathPursuitPerformingReportsAssociationTraitsSelf DisciplineGratificationDiligenceAthleticsSelf ExpressionEducational SystemWork HabitsSelf GratificationMath And MusicPerforming MusicStudy And WorkStudying Music Author:Michael E.

“The greatness of Mac Rebennack, alias, Dr. John, also known as John Crieux, rests on his command of the musical use of idiomatic expression. Not a technically well-endowed singer, nor a great songwriter, he leaves his mark through the discipline and control he exerts over all that he touches.” WellsUseKnownGreatnessExpressionDisciplineMarkMusicalSingersCommandSongwritersDrsMacsAliases Author:Jon Landau
“Honesty comes only with sound health, physically and psychologically, and an honest mind cannot be separated from the most genuine acknowledgment of expression. It should be recognized that pure perfection is unobtainable. Therefore, the realization that one's irrevocable faults and deficiencies must be faced guides us toward the first step of learning. We must each accept any situation as it actually is, with dignity. In that fine balance of acceptance of self and the mission to better oneself, compassion, humility, and discipline are nurtured.” ShouldMindFirstsSelfSoundCompassionSituationAcceptingStepsHonestHonestyAcceptanceHumilityExpressionFineBalanceDisciplinePureDignityPerfectionFaultsOneselfMissionsGuidesGenuineRealizationSelf AcceptanceFirst StepsDeficiencyAcknowledgmentIrrevocable Author:Midori Goto
“I did rhythmic gymnastics and I absolutely adored it. I was in the squad for Sussex.

“You will never have a greater or lesser dominion than that over yourself...the height of a man's success is gauged by his self-mastery; the depth of his failure by his self-abandonment. ...And this law is the expression of eternal justice.

“I cannot pursue my architecture without considering the minimization of energy consumption, simple and direct technologies, a respect for site, climate, place and culture. Together, these disciplines represent for me a fantastic platform for experimentation and expression. Of particular importance is the junction of the rational and the poetic resulting hopefully in works that resonate and belong to where they reside.” TogetherCultureEnergySimpleTechnologyParticularExpressionDisciplineDirectImportanceClimateArchitectureRationalPursueHopefullyFantasticPoeticPlatformsConsumptionSiteConsideringExperimentationJunctionEnergy Consumption Author:Glenn Murcutt
“To deny the force of divine judgment, then, is to make God less than God, and to make us less than His children. For every father must discipline His children, and paternal discipline is itself a mercy, a fatherly expression of love.” ChildrenFatherForceDivineExpressionDisciplineJudgmentMercyDenyExpressions Of Love Author:Scott Hahn
