Your State Of Mind Is Everything.

Man, The Living Creature, The Creating Individual, Is Always More Important Than Any Established Style Or System.

Cease Negative Mental Chattering. If You Think A Thing Is Impossible, You'll Make It Impossible. Pessimism Blunts The Tools You Need To Succeed.

One Rule Is To Not Use Complicated Techniques Unless They Are Necessary To Achieve Your Goal. First, Use Simple Movements, And If They Don't Work, Then Introduce The More Complex Ones.

Don’t Indulge In Any Unnecessary, Sophisticated Moves

To Me, Ultimately, Martial Arts Means Honestly Expressing Yourself. Now, It Is Very Difficult To Do. It Has Always Been Very Easy For Me To Put On A Show And Be Cocky, And Be Flooded With A Cocky Feeling And Feel Pretty Cool And All That. I Can Make All Kinds Of Phoney Things. Blinded By It. Or I Can Show Some Really Fancy Movement. But To Experience Oneself Honestly, Not Lying To Oneself, And To Express Myself Honestly, Now That Is Very Hard To Do.
