Self-Discipline Quote

The first President of the United States, George Washington, once said, "Nothing is more harmful to the service, than the neglect of discipline; for that discipline, more than numbers, gives one army superiority over another."

Many students and people know of President George Washington because his birthday is celebrated nationally, because he was the first President of the United States, and he is on the dollar bill and quarter.

What many people and students do not know was Washington's character as a leader. This quote is extremely relevant to today because we must first have discipline before we can accomplish our goals, whether it be in the classroom, on the athletic field, or in our careers and families.

This week is Self-Discipline week at Lodge. Let us remember President Washington's quote with sincerity.
