Discover the Greatness Within
Martial artists should put more emphasis on becoming athletes first. Get your bodies in shape. Don’t try to hide or pretend any longer. Quit hiding behind your PC keyboard, living the fantasy through magazines and videos or camouflaging your insecurities behind some need for certification.
There is only one way to become a real fighter and that is to go to a real gym with high athletic standards. Don’t watch. Make a commitment to yourself to go back to your basics. With enthusiasm, you must practice and keep practicing. Then, get out there and fight. Never yield. Never quit. Strength, wisdom, and spirit are the traits of greatness. Work hard, train smart, study with the best, and you will discover the greatness within yourself.
