Wake Up

 I’ve got to get myself back on track. I’m not outputting as much as I need to be. In fact I am behind by quite a bit. I’ve got to push myself hard. And I’ve got to stop procrastinating, it’s practically killing my Kung Fu. I’ve got to stop the mediocrity from taking control of my choices and push it away. 

It’s nearly a mental chess game for all of us. We do this and that, than our body says “no” by being sore or sick. We all want to accomplish great things from this. But for all of us, we encounter something that we must deal with and overcome the entire time we are in pursuit of our goals. For me it’s my procrastination. I love to sit around and just relax with the TV on. But that isn’t mastery, I might need to relax in the future after I’ve done my training and completed my numbers. That’s when I can relax. And I fail to recognize how critical that choice is, train and improve myself or relax and be comfortable? I’ve got a ways to go, I’ll get there though.

Worth

 For the entirety of May I was on a dark underground journey with myself. I analyzed everything about myself, where I am, and what I want to become. It got dark. Not going to get into specifics but it was a lot of talk with myself in a mirror or my car or to myself throughout the day. To keep it appropriate I kept telling myself “you need to win Owen. Because you have no other choice.” I feel we all have taken ourselves to this level before. It definitely made me more aware of the consequences when I don’t do something I need to do. I am comfortable where I am right now, but comfort kills progression. And without progression, we don’t get better.  Numbers: P/U: 13765 S/U: 12047 Forms: 125/113 Sparring: 16 AoK: 268 Mileage: 378.93km

Packing Up

 It has been none stop at the house to get everything ready before we move. We’ve done countless trips out to the storage unit and to my grandpas to store some of our equipment. I’m not a great people person when I comes to living close to one another. I just feel like I have no personal space and that everyone can hear you even when your inside your house. And with us moving into town I’m worried about crime. So I’ll be taking some extra steps to make sure my belongings aren’t in my car as much as they used to be. I haven’t gotten a lot done with my numbers but I’m still getting some done every day.  Numbers  P/U: 12548 S/U: 10580 Forms: 108/102 Sparring: 8 AoK: 237 Mileage: 302.56km

Year of the Horse

I am excited with what is happening next year for the I Ho Chaun team. Growth cannot happen without change no matter how comfortable it may feel. The less we change and challenge ourselves the easier it is for mediocrity to enter our life. And like I said on Thursday, if your not going to be on the team text year use that as a tool to keep yourself disciplined on your journey to be in the team in the future. I try my best to look at the positives that come with most change, because you can’t control that it’s happening so you might as well go in to it with a positive outlook because being negative about it won’t help you get better.  Numbers P/U: 37500 S/U: 34200 Forms: 624/650 Sparring: 161 AoK: 593 Mileage: 913.53km
