The rewards of a disciplined life are great, but they're often delayed until some time in the future. The rewards for a lack of discipline, on the other hand, are immediate. But they are minor in comparison to the immeasurable rewards of constant self-discipline. An immediate reward for lack of discipline is a fun day at the beach. A future reward of discipline is owning the beach. Unfortunately, most of us would choose today's pleasure over tomorrow's fortune.
