Wake early

No battle’s won in bed.

“You’re beating them mentally, you’re beating them physically, beating them physiologically because you rest and eat right, and spiritually because you pray to the lord Jesus Christ. You got five, or six, or seven dimensions in that. You put it on a level that your opponent cannot understand. He quits, not because he wants to, but because he has to. He has no choice” --Coach Brands
