“Training for Success: Applying Discipline in Preparation for Challenges”

Now that you have completed the reading from the Learning Activity titled “Setting the Groundwork for a Disciplined Mind,” consider a time when you may have trained for something in the past, such as a race, a competition, or a contest. What steps did you take to make sure you were well-
prepared to do your best? Do any of those steps relate to preparing to have a well-trained mind, 
as described in the Learning Activity, “Setting the Groundwork for a Disciplined Mind?” Why or why 
not? For example, does selecting the right ingredients for a cooking contest relate to selecting the 
right research to think critically about a project?
