A title?

I accidentally forgot to blog last week. Oops. A couple of things that I need to keep in front of me - routine is very important, and there is nothing like the pain one feels after an incredible workout. Routine is key to so many things. It helps us develop discipline, so that if and when the routine is interrupted, it isn't a huge obstacle to continue training. Your habits are already in place, so that your routine can be adjusted without much damage. It is also important to keep a routine over the holidays when everything is so busy, so that when we get back to our normal schedules, we aren't starting anew. If you have to start anew, it can be very overwhelming - so it's best to just keep doing what you always do. For example, pushups, situps, walking, and/ or eating habits. As for pain after an awesome workout - enough said. Awesome!I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season....I will see you on January 1st for 1000 pushups!

My UBBT year comes to an end...

As my UBBT year comes to an end, I find myself reflecting on my successes and failures. Not everything went the way I had hoped, however I now have some habits that will continue to help me on my journey. I am still moving forward though, and am busy making plans to continue on my journey. I have a project that I am putting out there as of the new year, and am trying out a new weapon. The UBBT was a wonderful tool, and I am thankful for the opportunity to be a part of this years team. It was fantastic to do this with such an engaged group of individuals, and I hope that those who embark on this journey next year will find the same amazing journey that I have had.Here's to finishing big!

Mental challenge

This past week I have had a few challenges, but I am fortunate to have something to help keep me going. Yes, my children and family are number one on that list, but Kung fu and my family there are a close second. Keeping harmony ( and peace - although that can be a hit or miss) at home, and running the couple of kids classes/ prepping for the Chinese New Year banquet have been fantastic tools to keep me going.

We had our monthly Black Dragon grading yesterday, and watching the kids receive their new belts never ceases to inspire me. It's even more awesome when there are kids from our advanced class. Way to go guys!
