There is no rule on how to write. Sometimes it comes easily and perfectly; sometimes it's like drilling rock and then blasting it out with charges.
I hated every minute of training, but I said, 'Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.'
Small disciplines repeated with consistency every day lead to great achievements gained slowly over time.
Self-discipline is the ability to do what you should do, when you should do it, whether you feel like it or not.
The winners in life think constantly in terms of I can, I will, and I am. Losers, on the other hand, concentrate their waking thoughts on what they should have or would have done.
Regard your soldiers as your children, and they will follow you into the deepest valleys; look on them as your own beloved sons, and they will stand by you even unto death.
Work like hell. I mean you just have to put in 80 to 100 hour weeks every week. This improves the odds of success.
I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.
I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.
Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.
You'll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine.
The big secret in life is that there is no big secret. Whatever your goal, you can get there if you're willing to work.
Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul, the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.
Winning is not a sometime thing; it's an all time thing. You don't win once in a while, you don't do things right once in a while, you do them right all the time. Winning is habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.
Discipline is doing what has to be done, when it has to be done, as well as it can be done, and doing it that way all the time.
Better by far that you should lose the fruit of your labor than that you should become forgetful of the true object of that labor.
Dreams don't work unless you take action. The surest way to make your dreams come true is to live them.
Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice, and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do.
