Hi Tom, I prefer to define "discipline" as a positive action that is taken in order to achieve something. For example, if I want to improve my golf I need to practice effectively, hitting lots of practice balls in an organized manner, playing golf (testing the practical effectiveness of my practice and having fun while doing so), reflecting on the outcome. i.e., any improvement and then taking further action.
It needs to be said, Tom. Well, a bit more than it just being said is what is required. But, cogent communications on this subject is the first step.
I've been thinking a lot about how to socially, or legislatively trim the economic sails' of the one-tenth-of-one-percenters. Not individuals, per-se; but the norms at Harvard Business School et al. that legitimize leaderships' continual gorging on their overall percentage of the economic pie... (Labor v. Capital).
Those who have a vested interest in propagating the status-quo, will not/cannot be change agents (Business, academic, political and media leadership).
Or, as Einstein put forth, "you cannot solve problems with the thinking/logic that created the problems in the first place" (loosely paraphrased in quotes).
I agree , Billy. And that’s a perfect example. I wouldn’t say that you’re disciplined. In my view, you do it because you enjoy doing it! All of it.

You could not have summed up the insanity of this era's inequality any better, Tom; KUDOS!
Thank you, Josh. I wish I didn’t have to.
