It is, in essence, the original Beautiful Game. While the design is wonderful DNA, the guts of the system is work ethic. Like anything else, nothing worth working for is acquired without blood, sweat and tears, and not necessarily in this order.

What's your daily game plan?
This is how:
5:00 am Study.
6:30 am Breakfast.
7:00 am Head to school.
7:30 am Get some studying in.
8:00 am Class.
10:00 am Recess. Get some studying in.
12:00 pm Lunch. Get some studying in.
12:30 pm Class.
2:30 pm Class pau. Get some studying in.
4:00 pm Practice.
6:00 pm Practice pau Go straight home, no detours, no kissing the gf, no playing video games with friends. No facebooky.
6:30 pm Shower. Dinner.
7:00 pm Study.
9:00 pm Give mom a hug.
9:01 pm Go to sleep.
Wash, rinse, repeat. That's 4 hours of studying even before you get home from practice.
Total studying time: 6 hours. Enough time to do the work and double check.
Social time: 0 hours.
Recreation (video games, facebooky, kissing gf) time: 0 hours. Unless you finish homework and double check it early.
Stay in shape time: If all the homework is double checked the night before, do your workout before school (5:00 to 6:30 am). If the weight room is closed, you'll find a way to do 100 crunches, 100 pushups and run 3 miles and/or 5 to 6 gassers across the field.
Boring, yes. But the most important things in life depend on your consistency, focus and dedication on a daily basis.
FUN? That's what weekends are for, assuming you get your work done for real during the week.
KEY: Associate with other people who have the same drive, the same dreams, the same affinity for success and rewards as you do. You will have friends of all kinds, no doubt. But when it comes down to it, you will be most influenced by your peers — the guys or girls you spend the most time with. Many of them are addicted to mediocrity and failure. Be picky about who you surround yourself with from sun up to bed time.
God is good. Count your blessings. Do the work without fail or whining, you'll see more blessings :)
