It's Louse Time!

If you're new to my list of focused, motivated, self- starters, Welcome.

Friday is where I share with you Life Lessons and Direction given to me by my dad (and Sifu) every Friday.

I call it "Louse Time".

Let me explain what "Louse Time" means.

If you look up the word "Louse" in the dictionary you'll get this definition:

"an offensive term that deliberately insults somebody's behavior and attitude."

What it means is we all need to have someone shake our tree every once and a while. There's a french saying that goes: "Te faire brasser la cage".

I think it's an absolute necessity if you ever want to get anything done.

Sometimes you get caught up in your routine and you need someone to snap you out of it.

What it does is, make you:

a) change a disempowering habit
b) carry less emotional baggage
c) take action on a goal or task you've been putting off
d) shift your focus and get out of your comfort zone

It might come under the form of a question, a discussion, an argument, or even an eye opening sparring match if we want to relate it to martial arts.

So who's gonna do the shaking?

That depends who you have in your "entourage". It can be one of your mentors, a friend you trust, you can do it yourself, or tune in on Friday's Louse Time.

So today's tree shaking task is: "Write a list of all the things you want to do, be or accomplish before you die" and start setting up a plan to get them done one by one, starting today.

Do I have your attention?

What are you waiting for? Get off your azz and start living the life you were born to live.

Aim Higher,

Sifu Martin
