They do it to win a perishable crown, but we, an imperishable one. Thus, I do not run aimlessly; I do not fight as if I were shadowboxing. No, I drive my body and train it for fear that, after having preached to others, I myself should be disqualified.” Today's episode tells a story of one man's extraordinary self-control. It also gives an example of why self-control is so important to have in our lives.  \nMusic:\"Adding the Sun\" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) \nLicensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License \nhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"}
