Self-discipline
Story★★★★A violinist of a Boston symphony orchestra reported that its magnetic conductor, Serge Koussevitzky, was very insistent before each concert on taking time to get every instrument in perfect tune. He has been known to take an entire hour just to get every instrument in tune before a concert. This is one reason why the one hundred and fifty instruments of the Boston Symphony Orchestra sound as one voice. Koussevitsky refused to eat heartily before a concert. Before a concert he would eat only a little porridge with honey and butter. He reserved his meal until the concert was over.

Modern families take many forms; what children love is time, presence, and care from their fathers.
