Besides being creatures of habit, we are all emotional beings. Most of the actions you do or don’t take is based on your emotions. The key is to learn to control your emotions so they don’t control you. Another huge benefit you’ll see from your Martial Arts training is that you develop
Positive Self Control over your emotions. You begin to understand more ways that
you can influence your emotions, putting you in the driver seat.
If you’ve ever lost control of your emotions, this usually means you got really mad,
sad or allowed your emotions to be in the driver’s seat of what you said or did.
With training and practice, you can and will gain control over your emotions and this
will allow you to excel in your training and your life.

What you focus on the most can have a positive or a negative impact on your thoughts
and emotions. The more you direct your focus and thinking patterns, the better control
you will have over your emotions.
Thoughts lead to feelings, your feelings lead to your actions...
and your actions always determine your results.
Improve your thinking and you will improve your life!

Health & Fitness Tip: Reward-Recharge-Renew!
Anytime you achieve a specific fitness goal, big or small, you should
reward yourself, recharge your batteries and renew your goal.
Reward - It's very important to recognize and reward good performance,
especially when it's your own. Most people reward themselves when they
achieve a big goal, such as a belt or hitting a certain body weight, etc...
You may also considering rewarding yourself for completion of a great
class or an excellent workout. Reward can vary from a special dinner to
a trip to the book store or whatever reward you feel fits the achievement.
Recharge - Recharging your batteries. When you finish a great workout
or achieve a big goal, it's time to recharge your battery. Combination of
rest, re-hydration and replenishing your system with healthy nutrition.
Proper rest and recharge is vital to your progress and should be planned
into your training strategy. You work hard, train hard and push yourself
to the next level and it's important to allow yourself sufficient rest to
make sure your batteries are fully recharged.
Renew - Renewing your goals insures that you'll see consistent progress
and that you'll continually move forward in your health and fitness goals.
Like any area of life that you wish to excel in, you must always have a
goal in your training. Without a goal, you'll lose your desire and reasons
for taking your skills and conditioning to the next level. Always renew
yourself and your goals. |
