Main Points of Class

Sustained, concentrated effort requires freedom from distractions; this freedom is primarily a question of internal discipline (temperance).

Temperance is acquired through repeated acts. The very act of fighting distractions builds up the strength needed to fight in the future, and vice versa.
Get used to saying “no.”
