“Perhaps the most important insight of all with regard to success is that to achieve greatly, you must become a different person. It is not the material things you accomplish or acquire that matter so much as it is the quality of the person you must become to accomplish well above the average. The development of self-discipline is the high road that makes everything possible for you.”

that repels you from ever doing the things that you need to do to be successful.

that draws you toward becoming more and more like the kinds of people that
you want to be like.”
