Nick Saban on Disciopline

Discipline defined as do what you're supposed to do when you're supposed to do it the way it's supposed to get done. Do the right thing the right way, the right time, all the time. But I'm talking about self discipline. We answer hundreds of questions every day that come down to these two things. Here's something I know I'm supposed to do that I really don't want to do. Can you make yourself do it? And then over here there's something you know you're not supposed to do but you want to do it. Can you keep yourself from it? If you can make those choices and decisions the right way, you're always going to be able to stay on the path to accomplish the goals. But we're talking about feeling versus choice. You're going to do what you feel like doing. Are you going to choose to do the things you need to do to be successful? And there's a difference in that.
