Tropical storm warning

The island of Puerto Rico is under a tropical storm warning and a hurricane watch, but there could be a hurricane warning later Thursday. Well today we got out earlier, because of that, and I think the classes where suspended for tomorrow. This could mean NO WORK!! for me yeah!!

You can watch the trajectory here : Hurricane Omar

Here are some quotes for the week:

DISCIPLINE

"We must all suffer from one of two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is discipline weighs ounces while regret weighs tons." -- Jim Rohn

"If you're not willing to accept your own discipline, you're not going to accomplish two percent of what you could--and you're going to miss out on 98% of the good things you could have." -- Tom Hopkins

"Positive self-discipline puts you in the driver´s seat. When you rehearse the correct moves and internalize them, you will become a high-performance human being." -- Denis Waitley

"The only competition you will ever have is the competition between your disciplined and undisciplined mind." -- James A. Ray

"The truth of the matter is that you always know the right thing to do. The hard part is doing it." -- General H. Norman Schwarzkopf

"The most important quality in the development of human character is, and always has been, self discipline." -- Brian Tracy

"Our main business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand." -- Thomas Carlyle

"I've never known a man worth his salt who in the long run, deep down in his heart, didn't appreciate the grind, the discipline... I firmly believe that any man's finest hour - this greatest fulfillment to all he holds dear – is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle, victorious." -- Vince Lombardi

"When the morning's freshness has been replaced by the weariness of midday, when the leg muscles give under the strain, the climb seems endless, and suddenly nothing will go quite as you wish-it is then that you must not hesitate." -- Dag Hammarskjold

"You can't have the fruits without the roots. It's the principle of sequencing: Private Victories proceed Public Victories. Self-mastery and self-discipline are the foundation of good relationships with others." -- Stephen Covey

"Talent is cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work." -- Stephen King

"I define self-control, in the beginning of life, as the choice of achieving what I really want by doing things I really don't want to do. Once this becomes a habit, discipline becomes the choice of achieving what I really want by doing the very things I now want to do! I really believe that a disciplined life becomes a joy - but only after we have worked hard to practice it." -- John Maxwell

"Self-control is a critical leadership skill. Leaders generally are able to plan and work at a task over a longer time span than those they lead." -- Gerald Faust

"One of the great lessons I've learned in athletics is that you've got to discipline your life. No matter how good you may be, you've got to be willing to cut out of your life those things that keep you from going to the top." -- Bob Richards
