hello everyone another blog for me, actually lately I've been really enjoying doing forms. most likely because im learning a lot of new forms, but in the same time these new forms im learning are making me appreciate my older forms that i know now. the amount of work and sweat i had to put into learning a new form is huge. when i finally learned the whole tai chi broad sword form, i immediately wanted to improve it and change little things here and there. i remember when i first learned Da Ma Sing i thought to myself well this is fun and easy, but now that i've been doing kung fu so long i sorta stopped seeing it in that way, but now i realize when i first learned it i did not respect it. there was so much that da ma sing could teach me so many opportunities that da ma sing provide for me. i got to work on my basics, my centering, and my flow, and so much more. Doing the tai chi broad sword has made me realize this forms are these huge chances of extraordinary little experiences. all by having a different attitude and putting more passion into my forms. i want them to be awesome, but never perfect for if my forms were perfect it would mean i have nothing more to gain from them. remember everyone stay extraordinary.

effort, trying, priorities
hello this recent meeting that the i ho chuan had got me thinking about if you don't try or put in the effort you will be guaranteed nothing, and also about what is your priority which ranks higher in your life.
for the trying and putting in effort one i started to think about what do i do that try and put effort in? i figured i put effort in my kung fu and my school. i really want to succeed in both so i put effort into it. and for trying things i found out that i dont really ask out to many girls mainly because i think that im scared of not being accepted for who i am and for what i look like. but after hearing myself say this i realize that i wont get anywhere with women if i dont put some effort into it. so i got to thinking if you don;t try you gain nothing but if you try and put in some effort in it you will always get a result weather it be positive or negative, at least your doing something, which is better then nothing. i have to realize that doing nothing will give me nothing, but do something will give me something. this sound simple enough, but this is for sure a lot harder to do. its easy to say but to actually do it in real life is two different things. im defiantly going to try harder and put more effort into finding a girlfriend, but not saying that it will be easy, but i am more aware of how hard im trying now.
for where are my priorities i would have to say right now my university is top priority for me right now. i still keep kung fu up there, but i have already not attended some classes due to school, they were not my actual classes, but i see all the classes i can attend as my classes, because i always see and learn new things about myself or about other people.whenever i start thinking about priority i start thinking about balance. it good to have a top priority, but no one every has one priority. to tell you the truth i have yet to figure out how to perfectly balance all my priorities, but i'm pretty sure im not to bad at doing it. i dont think actually that someone could ever be perfectly balance in there priorities. i think that we just try to do our best and sometimes we exclude one, but then others might tell you your off balanced or you figure it out for yourself and then you adjust. this recent meeting has really got me thinking, i've heard these things before, but i never really applied it to myself and what i was doing in life.
well if you read this far in my blog thanks for reading and remember stay extraordinary.
