Geet Sethi :

Prakash Padukone once told me that for six years in a row he did not watch a single movie while he was undergoing a rigorous training regime. He would wake up at 5.30, go for a 10-kilometer run, return home for breakfast, exercise, then play two-and-a-half hours of badminton, come back at noon and sleep for two hours. He would then wake up at 2.30 in the afternoon, exercise till 3.00, play badminton between 4.00 and 7.00, do some cooling-down exercises, return home at 7.30, have his dinner and go to bed by 8.30. He maintained this incredibly disciplined lifestyle for six years without a break, seven days a week!

Successful people understand the meaning of discipline and of total commitment to a single cause. This discipline, by definition, necessitates a simplified lifestyle. This is the key to improving concentration.
