Found this from an old thread/post...

Regardless of shot difficulty or speed, knowing precisely where the bullet will land before it arrives is the key that unlocks all aspects of successful shooting. And as no two shots fired are ever the same, consistently shooting well demands the discipline of continuous learning.

After years of training this – continuously monitoring the relationship between where you thought each bullet went and where it actually did, learning to see like you’ve never seen before – a new way of acting emerges. Without doubt obstructing you, pure, awareness now dictates your actions.

This is a good topic for me because (as many may know) I'm a big Krishnamurti fan. And he seldom said the word "discipline" without taking the time to define what he meant by it. He'd always patiently explain that "discipline," does not mean to control by any means of effort. Or to follow what anyone else has said. Quite the opposite, he said the root word meant, at its simplest - to learn.

And he also explain that learning, by definition, must be continuous. Or in other words, when learning stops you then have knowledge. And while knowledge certainly has it's place throughout our daily activities - while training and competing, it's best to always be learning.
