Peak Performance - The Right Action Continued

The Right Action can also be translated as the right conduct or the right behavior. As such, a black belt leader, champion, and or master trains him or herself to take action and to be morally upright at all times. This includes acting in a way that brings honor to oneself and to others.

 
In Tang Soo Do, the right action encompasses our Five Codes of Tang Soo Do, our 7 tenets, and our 10 Attitudinal Requirements. It also includes the Five Laws that are part of any solid teacher/student relationship. These include being loyal & honest which is always a two (2) way proposition, support even when it’s not easy, no secrets, follow-up and follow through, and constant and never ending improvement.

Peak Performance - The Right Thoughts

The right thoughts are central to reaching self mastery. Peak performance starts with the right understanding which is always based on the right thoughts. The truth is you can’t have one without the other.

Moo Do Philosophy - The Right Understanding

The Right Understanding
 
The Right Understanding is sometime called “Wisdom”. It is often translated as “discernment” as it provides a sense of direction and at a higher level, the right view and right direction. This is the right way of looking at life, nature and the world as they really are. Simply put, it is to look at life and nature in a way that one understands how things really are. Understanding the right view inspires the practitioner to lead a virtuous life in line with our Moo Do philosophy.
