11. Discipline


"Discipline yourself so others won't have to," John Wooden.
So many problems that I see showcased on Oprah stem from a lack of discipline. The Debt Diet people are a prime example. Stop spending money you don't have! Those people drove me crazy. My pal Suze Orman looked over their financials and put them on a strict Debt Diet! I wonder how they are doing now, it would be interesting to see. I am a highly disciplined person, with my money, my food, exercise, work, everything. I think that discipline was ingrained at an early age with my ballet lessons. Everything has to be precise in ballet and you have to practice it over and over. Learning discipline is perhaps the most important lesson I've ever learned, next to the work ethic, but they go hand in hand.


How do you train yourself to be more disciplined?
