They grow with practice, layer by layer - thought on thought - fused with imagination and emotion until they become like steel cables - unbreakable.

Self discipline alone can effect a permanent change in your self image and in you. Self-discipline achieves goals. Self discipline is not 'doing without,' it is 'doing within.'
