A lot of the times in class I find myself saying “this would be a lot easier if I were bigger or stronger”, “I wish I had the flexibility to do this technique better” things like that, just pointing out all the skills I don’t have and wishing that I did. What I failed to realize is the more I say these things to myself, the more difficult it seems to reach. By simply stating the words “I wish”, I am implying that they are goals I am not able to achieve, and the more I dream about obtaining those skills instead of working towards them, the further they go from my reach. This is when I realized I had to start changing my mindset. Asking myself, “how can I achieve this?” instead of “why can’t I do this?”. By changing my words into a plan, I am changing my wishes into goals, and goals into action. Coming up with ways to better myself for certain forms, techniques, kicks and punches. Dreaming is healthy, and fantasizing about being better at something is only human, but it’s when you actually start taking actions that they begin to turn into reality. This is a mindset I try to carry throughout my daily life, in everything that I do. Everytime I catch myself wishing something were different, I try to think of all the steps I can take to walk towards that goal.
