College of Discipline

As Jocko Willink emphasizes, "Discipline is Freedom," and David Goggins shares his commitment to early training in his book "Can't Hurt Me." We firmly believe that structure can be regained through consistent practices and repetition. This approach is rooted in the principles of the Compound Effect and Delayed Gratification.

​

"Once you conquer yourself then there is no one else to conquer" = "you will be the last warrior you will fight."

 Discipline through the words of global icons. 

Kobe Bryant:

  • The most important thing is to try and inspire people so that they can be great in whatever they want to do.

​

Jocko Willink:

  • Discipline is freedom.

 

Malcolm X:

  • A human who stands for nothing falls for anything.

​

Bruce Lee:

  • Don't pray for an easy life; pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.

​

Michael Jordan:

  • Don't be afraid to fail. Be afraid not to try.

​​

Albert Einstein

  • Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving.

 

Darwin

  • It is not the strongest of the species that survives; nor the most intelligent; it is the one most adaptable to change.

 

Unassigned

  • You do not rise to the occasion, you sink to the level of your training.

  • Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

  • Well done is better than well said.

  • Strong human stands up for himself, stronger human stands up for others.

  • Surround yourself with people who empower you.

  • Easy choices = hard life, hard choices = easy life.

  • Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.

  • Courage isn't an absence of fear. It's doing what you are afraid to do.

  • It's not what stands in front of you, it's who stands beside you.
