Dear Friends and Members,
Can you believe it? 31 days down from 2009. I hope you’re up and running towards your goal that you set from the beginning of the year. These days you have to fight and go for it. Take action and work your plan…
Life seems like a rush these days. Everyday I express my gratitude for another day to make a difference in this world. I love what I do. I know I have a large responsibility on my hands, that few men would ever care for. One of my sources of inspiration is see you succeed and reach your goals, not only in the martial arts, but in all aspects of your life.
My instructor, Pamana Tuhon Sayoc, once asked me if I thought that I was successful. I asked him if that was a trick philosophical question. Tuhon said to me, “Pat, what you do on the mat, do you believe that it saves lives?” I enthusiastically replied “Yes!”
“How many lives do you think you’ve saved then over the years?”, Tuhon asked.
“Hundreds..”, I answered.
“What cost has it been to you or to those you’ve saved and influenced?” - Tuhon
“Priceless” - Guro
“Would you trade that responsibility for anything in this world?” - Tuhon
“Nothing at all” - Guro
“Then you are a man who has passion for something that he truely believes in, even though you have no obligation or attachment to do so, you do it with fervor and continually do your best. There are men who go through this life never knowing the greatness within them, their pursose and their calling. What we do saves lives…” - Tuhon
I wanted to share that with you, because I too have mentors/coaches cheering me on, reminding me of the things I know, and the things that am supposed to do. Having a coach behind me keeps me alert and hungry for my goals in life. Tell me what moves you, what inspires you. I’d love to hear from you. You can email me at info@kapatidmartialarts.com.
To your success,
Guro Patrick Consing
Dear Friends,
Happy New Year 2009! I want to greet each and every one of you a Prosperous and Healthy 2009. While others set resolutions, my feelings are that a resolution means you are a problem. I don’t think you want to start up the new year that way. Wipe a clean slate and start fresh! Goal-Setting is the solution! Make sure you get this month’s handout on Goal-Setting to share with your family and friends…
Have a Powerful Month!!!
To Your Success,
Guro Patrick Consing
