If you focus on all 7, the one with the least attention tends to fa...

Nick and Kyle discuss discipline and focus. There is an old adage "whether you think you can or you can't you are right". A majority of society these days work, come home, watch TV, eat, take care of children (if they have them) and go to bed to repeat. There is not intentional action to grow.
