This is a great story. It reminds me of one I read about Abraham Lincoln. His mother passed away when he was still a child,but Abe never forgot his mother.She taught him a lesson he carried with him his entire life. She taught him that "the beginning of wisdom is not imposed by discipline, but the beginning of wisdom is first the desire for discipline, the love of it, the voluntary choice of it." Abe learned that discipline is the highroad to everything that makes life worth living for. (excerpt from Holliwell's book "Working with the Law") Persistence comes from discipline.
