Grades are more important, so they needed to be there. We talked during the week about self-discipline, that these boys are all smart enough to get good grades and play ball. It just takes work.

Discipline and concentration are a matter of being interested.

In yourself right now is all the place you've got.

The opposite of "corrupt"? Discipline, and self-discipline in particular I'd say.

If a man will understand how intimately, yea, how inseparably, self-control and happiness are associated, he has but to look into his own heart, and upon the world around,...Looking upon the lives of men and women, he will perceive how the hasty word, the bitter retort, the act of deception, the blind prejudice and foolish resentment bring wretchedness and even ruin in their train.

Self discipline expresses itself in a variety of ways such as perseverance, the ability not to give up despite failure and setbacks, self control, the ability to resist distraction or temptation, & trying over again until you accomplish what you set out to do.
