“In improvisation, there are no mistakes.” ~ Miles Davis
I recently had a great conversation with a friend who is currently working on her PhD in improvisation. This made me consider where improvisation applies in our Kung Fu journey.
Knowledge, Desire, and Commitment
“I’ll believe that someone has the knowledge, desire and commitment to earn a Black Sash when I see it around their waist.”
~ Sigung Bob Schneider, Founder of Waterloo Kung-Fu Academy
Our Greatest Glory
“Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.”
~ Confucius
The Source of Your Smile
”Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.”
~ Thich Nhat Hanh
Trust yourself. Create the kind of life you will be happy to live with all your life.
Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into the flames of achievement.
~Foster C. McClellan
The Student Has Hindsight; The Teacher Has Foresight; The Master Has Insight
Individuals should evolve from learning from the past to foreseeing outcomes and gain self-awareness.
