Some people are what I call “The Plan B” people. While I value the importance of being prudent and prepared, some people would always go to option 2 when they have not exhausted their efforts into their original plan.

With barely 10 more days to go and almost 2000 people attending the seminar on Feb. 24. It is so encouraging to know that so many people value learning and discipline.

Here is an old and sobering story: When a victorious Roman general arrived back in Rome, he was given a hero’s welcome and a triumphant parade of victory.

Complete the sentence. If at first you don’t succeed………Do not try again. Find out what went wrong. Correct the error and then try again. It’s crazy to continue doing the same thing over expecting a different result. Working harder on the same mistake is not a virtue. Humble yourself and find out where you went wrong. Then correct it and try again. This takes a lot of discipline to do.

You like someone “BECAUSE” they have pretty eyes, nice smile, or an elegant nose. You love the person “EVEN THOUGH” they are not rich, a good cook, or can’t put the toilet seat down. Liking someone means that you are fond of their good traits and loving someone is that you accept that other person fully even though they are not always perfect. Liking and loving are different. Know the difference. It’s easy to like but it takes a lot of heart and discipline to love.

Lyman Bryson wrote: “The error of youth is to believe that intelligence is a substitute for experience, while the error of age is to believe that experience is a substitute for intelligence.” We need the optimism and enthusiasm of youth and the experience and wisdom of age. One tempers the other. I learn from the young and this entails a lot of discipline. But it pays off very well!
