martial arts

Jet Li.
Bruce Lee.
Discipline.

Underdog's Resilience.

Fortitute.

Proactive.

Righteousness.

though i've only dabbled in tae-kwon-do, aikido and watched my dad in wushu since i was a child, i have the utmost respect for martial artists. Their fervent spirit holds me in awe.

i believe, my limited knowledge of all kinds of Martial Arts has taught me not so much of the skills and techniques, but the spirit and meaning behind it. in today's world, it is not so much of the physical techniques that matter but how we perceive the world's challenges with what we learn from it.

From kung-fu shows, doesnt matter if its made up, it has taught me over and over again that not only do we have to be righteous and fight against what is wrong, but being a proactive fighter, we can emply a wide variety of skills to overpower a wide variety of problems. The skills and techniques we learn, as a businessman, trader and communicator, allow us to solve each challenge we encounter with a specific strategy with surgical accuracy. Thus, we should always thrive to increase and improve our knowledge base of our professional area and essential life-skills such as communication.

Har!
