Sifu Brinker has started the process of building next year's I Ho Chuan team. I remember how I felt at this time last year and it was a good feeling. Not really knowing 100% what you're getting into but a lot of excitement nonetheless.
I can say without exaggeration that joining SRKF was the single best
decision I've ever made; joining the Horse Team last year was a close second. My year so far has been successful. There are a ton of things that I need to improve but I have come a long way. Objectively, I'm doing terribly, but I'm still happy with what I've accomplished so far and with the changes that I've made in my life.
One of the misconceptions that I had about the I Ho Chuan is that I thought it would be a hardship to get through and nothing could be further from the truth. The I Ho Chuan teaches you how to create more time in your life by getting rid of wasted time. I don't think I could ever go back now. At this point I feel like this is just something I do now. I'm not sure why I would ever not be on the team, especially since I have so much I can do better. With the excitement of the upcoming year I have to make sure I don't look ahead and ensure that I stay focused on what I'm doing right now.
Great analysis
ReplyDeleteIt's funny, but this is an exact replica of a conversation I just had with Sifu Brinker, what he said the program is meant to be. You've done it my friend. You may not realize it but you have paved a path for the rest of us who are still struggling.
ReplyDeleteI suppose it would be a shame for us to lose the rhythm we've got going huh? Hmmmmm....
ReplyDeleteThat's right. If you're not on the Sheep Team I'll never stop bothering you. I'll bombard you with emails telling you all about my progress and all the great things the team is doing. You'll beg Sifu Brinker to let you on the team after the fact. You might as well just give in to the inevitable and join now. No pressure though. :)
