Adopting Bruce Lee's Louse Time Strategy

Remember I talked about Bruce Lee and the movie Enter the Dragon in past newsletters.

That part where the student disturbs Bruce Lee's tea ceremony with the government official.

Bruce Lee says: "It's Louse Time" and proceeds to teach life and martial art lessons to the student.

I mentioned before, how every Friday is MY louse time with my dad.

I might make every Friday, Louse time. Where I communicate to you what I learn on a weekly basis from my Sifu.

Let me know by e-mail if that would be of any value to you.

Today was: Concentrated Action

You might be struggling and overwhelmed by the amount of things you have to do in one day.

Chances are your attention is scattered all over the place. Trying to do to many things at once.

By having concentrated action, you break down your work day into a mini work day.

That means for example: if you are to make phone calls you focus exclusively on that. No e-mail, no cell phone, no internet. Just total focus on that task at hand.

One hour of checking e-mails, one hour of training and stretching, one hour of...

You'll be surprised at what you can accomplish in one day using this principle.

This is why our strength training philosophy is so effective. There's no time to think and there's no distractions.

If you work your abs you're working your abs non-stop.

If it's your legs, it's your legs.

You're doing so with full commitment and intensity.

It's something to be felt, that's for sure.

Pick up our strength training system here and you'll understand what I mean.

Master Yourself,

Sibok Martin

P.S. Bruce Lee said something else during his "Louse Time" with that student. He said: "Don't concentrate on the finger or you will miss all that heavenly glory". Be careful what you focus on.

You might be putting the most mundane tasks first when you start your day. Start your day by focusing on your most important goals, goals that will improve your life. Everything else comes second.
