Never give up on your training and never let excuses get in your way.
Thanks to Jim Hager for sharing this video with me.
No one ever said earning your black belt was going to be easy. Some days everything is easy while on other day’s you wonder if you’re making progress at all. Remember, life is always there ready to hold you back and give you plenty of excuses in your training. You have to overcome.
“Every worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph; a beginning, a struggle and a victory.” — Gandhi
Ask Mr. Miller and Mr. Ford who were promoted to 1st degree black belt last month after years of training if it was worth it. It wasn’t easy for either one of them and if you asked them if it was worth the time, sacrifice and dedication, you’ll see a smile before they answer you.
