On of my goals this summer is to build a new portion of a fence in our back yard. Well I am happy to say that it is well underway. Through planning, re planning and then finally implementing the plan, the project is beginning to take shape. Along the way to this point I have had to make dozens of corrections and adjustments as I am no master fence builder. I want the final product to "wow" me, for me to stand back and say "I built that!". So because I want the final product to be as awesome as I can make it, I must take my time and be thorough and conscientious as to my choices and technique, I must ask for advise from people with experience......................................HOLD ON..................... am I talking about building a fence or am I talking about my Kung Fu?
In a way, yes is the answer to both. I want my fence to be "wow" worthy to me, same as I want my Kung Fu to be "wow" worthy to me. The old adage goes, "any job worth doing is worth doing right", or something along those lines. I couldn't agree more. I don't want to rush my fence or my Kung Fu. I want both to be something to be proud of. By following my plan and not skipping important steps, I should achieve my desired outcome in due time. The fence will take a few days, my Kung Fu will take a lifetime. The fence is a check mark on a list, one small piece of a larger plan. My Kung Fu is a lifestyle, a journey with no end but worth every step. Both have worthy rewards, both will teach me something if I listen.
Can you hear your Kung Fu? Listen.......................
