Reflection

Discipline

The more you sweat in training, the less you bleed in combat.

— Richard Marcinko

Why this matters:

The more you sweat in training, the less you bleed in combat. Anticipatory suffering through rigorous preparation is the most effective way to mitigate future risk. Discipline in the dark ensures that when the lights are brightest, your performance is instinctive rather than desperate.
