It has taken me over 45 years to attain my 8th degree black belt. My belief has always been to give without expecting anything in return My focus has always been on helping others to succeed and move away from any negativity which they may have inherited.
I suppose my primary motivation over these years was to benefit others, not myself.
It has involved me freely giving my resources (time, money, possessions, etc.) without conditions or expectations in return. .
My focus has always been on the positive feelings and experiences associated with helping others, rather than any external rewards. Over the years I have helped many individuals overcome their learning needs and get rid of the many tags that have been given to them needlessly by society. Martial arts is not just about punching or kicking but also about the science and arts behind the style itself. To those on this journey I wish you all the very best wishes going forward
