What Did I Commit To? Me!

    Yesterdays 2nd degree brown belt meeting was, as always, great. It is always informative, supportive, and inspirational. The thing about yesterdays meeting was that there was a commitment made. In less then 2 weeks, we are doing a meeting/test on one of our requirements, kicks. I know that this is a preliminary test to show where we are at with our kicks and it will be immensely helpful towards our mastery of our kicks but none the less, I still want to do my best as though it was grading day. Speed, Power and Form. Bring my A game. Give it my all. Leave nothing on the table.

   I'm both excited and a bit freaked out. I must approach this golden opportunity with NO ego. I must be a sponge, absorb every comment, suggestion. Basics Don! Basics. No show boating, no assuming I know, listen to what is said, achieve perfection with correction.

   It's amazing how an opportunity like this narrows your focus. To me, it is like a giant magnifying glass has been put in front of my eye for detail. To say I am going to be working on my kick basics for the next two weeks would be an understatement. I am thrilled to get this chance, now I must not squander it.
