 But what's behind this consistency? Miller attributes it to being available and committed, emphasizing the importance of showing up every day regardless of pain, injuries, or setbacks.“The best ability is availability,” Miller states, recalling how he rarely missed practice and always aimed to be there for his team. His discipline extended beyond effort; it was rooted in his nutrition and recovery routines. Miller adopted a caveman-inspired diet of lean meats, fruits, and vegetables, and kept himself hydrated with salt-infused water methods that kept his body shredded and healthy. This level of commitment echoes a principle he learned early on from his father, learning to say no to distractions to say yes to his dreams. 
He also shares that the key is to lean into your faith and values during tough times. So, what’s your big yes? What will you say no to today to move closer to your purpose?
 Remember, true success lies in aligning your actions with your values, embracing vulnerability, and trusting that God's plan is bigger than any of us can see. Start today: Identify one area to apply discipline, whether in health, faith, or relationships, and take a small step forward. Your journey to greatness begins with that first decision.
