Pit of doom

 

What inspires you? Is it a higher belt in Kung Fu who seems to have it all together? Is it the fact that you finally get a technique? Or is it just being in a place full of like minded people? I find I am inspired all of the time by these things and more.

 

I get inspired by teaching, by learning new things, and by pushing myself harder. I haven't been up to snuff on my kung fu for the past few months, but am once again feeling more inspired and am finding a few minutes throughout each and every day to fit in a little training. I try to pump out small batches of pushups during the day, I throw kicks when I can, and I think about kung fu all the time.

 

 

I encourage everyone, to find some inspiration within everything you do. It can come in the smallest packages - whether it's a smile, a small gesture of appreciation, or simply a compliment for something that you have done. I can get inspired by watching another student finally understand something. Or have a Lil Leopard ask to see a weapon after class.

 

But remember, you have to keep being in the right place - it won't always be the right time, but if you keep showing up, the opportunity will present itself, and your patience will be rewarded. And if you aren't feeling inspired, then please talk to someone who can help. You are surrounded by like minded people - who else better qualified is there that can help you feel inspired?

 

( The title of my blog is based on a nameless game I really love playing with the Lil Leopards. It's great fun)
