It is not easy and I find it harder now that it is so dark early in the morning. Who wants to get out of bed at 5:30 am? When it is so cold and dark outside? Not me!
When you have a goal in mind, it keeps you motivated. Your commitment is greater. This is where a tournament like the Tiger Challenge comes into play. We need to realize the value of this event and set a goal of competing at the event. We have less than a month to practice and prepare for it. Commitment. Discipline. Motivation. That all it takes.
When Sifu Brinker asks us in class - where are you/ and what are you doing? I also ask my-self: "why am I doing it?". We all have our reasons for being in Kung Fu. When you are feeling down and unmotivated, think about the WHY. It helps me to re-engage in my training.
I hope to see lots of students at the Tiger Challenge this year. I hope to see YOU there too!
i will defiantly be there you have a fierce commitment and a glowing heart. you are someone of true balance and when i see you. you juggle family, kung fu, work and successfully at it to. i know you might maybe think different, but i think your just doing your best and that is awesome. I hope when i have a family i can take care of them as well as you take care of yours.
