determination

So what am i to write now? determination... i recently hooked up with a long time friend of mine and he teaches muay thai. as i was interested i asked if he could teach me and he did without any hesitation. at first i was kinda giving 2nd thoughts of what the training would be and how it will affect me...

and so it was the first day and we went up on the roof to start to train and yes it wasnt easy at all.either i was out of shape or the training is really that hard. when it was time for break i told myself "this isnt me to give up now..." and so i didnt. i had that mindset each training i had.

as days go by in training, i was bruised and blistered to a point of exhaustion but i kept tell i can do it. at points when i could not take it any more beating i pushed it saying i can. when ur mind says u can all other pain doesnt affect u at all. and i can make sure of that. martial arts makes us stronger in willpower as well as disciplines us. martial arts isnt all about fighting but its how we control our mind and body.

Some times we have days when we wanna give up and say we can cause we are so tired but in fact we are too lazy to even try. this works for anything. no matter how much pain u feel inside you we got to live on. emotional pain is really hard to ignore but i am sure everyone has been through it and u survived till this long so why give up when it hits us again? physical pain? is nth compared to emotional pain.

we say we can not because we just wanna say it but we say we can cause WE ACTUALLY CAN. it took me till now to realize that our mind is a powerful thing that filters out all the physical or emotional pain we may have.

no matter how bruised, beaten, battered and blistered u will survive. so why not push on at the point of time then to wait till a time when u think u will be able to do it. what u can do it now, no matter how much u have to go thru, do it...

how strong is ur mind is how determined u can be
