“Discipline is the driver of daily execution and defeats the infinite excuses that hold you back. Motivation is just an emotion—you can't rely on it; but discipline will be there when motivation is gone.”

“There are no bad teams, only bad leaders. A leader must recognize that it's not what you preach; it's what you tolerate—if substandard performance is accepted, that poor performance becomes the new standard.”
