Q & A

What is the main lesson the businessman teaches the boy in the story?

The businessman teaches that success requires as much desire and effort as the boy showed when struggling to breathe under water. This means you must want success as badly as you need to breathe in order to achieve it.

Why is motivation alone insufficient to achieve success according to the script?

Motivation provides an initial burst of energy, like starting a car’s engine, but without self-discipline (the 'acceleration'), motivation alone won’t help you reach your goals.

What are the '3Rs' that Brian Tracy shares in his book 'No Excuses: The Power of Self-Discipline'?

The '3Rs' are Reason, Research, and Repetition. Finding a strong reason to succeed, researching how to achieve success, and repeating disciplined actions daily are essential for long-term success.

How did Lucas, the boy in the story, change his life after his mother's death?

Lucas took on responsibility for his sister, worked several jobs, went to college, and eventually improved his life through self-discipline, fulfilling his mother’s wish for him to become a good person.

What role does a strong reason play in self-discipline?

A strong reason, like the responsibility Lucas felt after his mother’s death, can push people to take action and stay disciplined in achieving their goals, even when it’s difficult.

What did the dentist from Brian Tracy’s story do that changed his career?

The dentist attended a conference where he learned a new dental technique that revolutionized his practice. By applying this knowledge, he became more successful and eventually opened his own hospital.

How does research contribute to self-discipline according to the script?

Research allows you to gather knowledge about your goals, learn from experts, and immerse yourself in your field, which helps you stay disciplined and continuously improve.

Why is repetition important for self-discipline?

Repetition helps turn actions into habits, making it easier to stay disciplined over time. Once something becomes a routine, like going to the gym daily, it becomes second nature.

How did Henry Stanley maintain his self-discipline during his exploration of the Congo River?

Stanley maintained a daily routine, including shaving every morning, even in harsh conditions. This routine gave him a sense of control and confidence, helping him stay disciplined throughout his journey.

What are the key steps to achieving success based on the '3Rs' method?

To achieve success, you need to (1) find a strong reason for your goals, (2) research and learn from others in your field, and (3) practice repetition to build habits that support self-discipline.
