00:04It requires you to control your animalistic instincts, because your instincts are telling

00:11Coach, let me go home, I want to sleep.
00:13Coach, my legs are on fire and my shoulder is hurting and there is this tennis elbow
00:19to boot.
00:20Let me please go.
00:21That's the lower kind of pleasure.
00:22You avoid work, you shirk your responsibilities, there is the lower kind of pleasure.
00:27Pleasure is greatly important, we all definitely need pleasure, but we need pleasure of the

00:51Those will be the moments in which he will be falling in life.
