It's Louse Time! To be worn out is to be renewed.

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

(if you're not (new) jump right away to today's lesson
below)

Every day I communicate to you the best ways to train and the kind of mindset it takes to get results either in your physical fitness or martial art training.

Friday is always what I call: "Louse Time". Modeled after Bruce Lee's strategy in Enter the Dragon.

You know that part where he's having tea with the government agent but he's disturbed by one of his students and Bruce Lee tells the agent: It's Louse Time! The agent replies with his British accent: "yes of course".

Since I'm 6 years old that scene has always stuck with me and I'll be using that same strategy with YOU every week.

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

Today's lesson is: "To be worn out is to be renewed"

Snakes shed skin 12 times a year
A great quote by Lao-tzu.


Sometimes we cling on to things for no reason and releasing ourselves of a bad habit would do us good just like a snake sheds its skin.

Some snakes shed their skin up to 12 times a year.

What if we did the same thing? Not shed our skin like snakes of course, that would be kinda gross!

I mean using the metaphor of shedding skin and applying it in your life in the form of shedding the old self. Taking time to look at yourself constructively and make improvements in areas of your life that you're not happy with.

It can also be, making what you're already good at, better.

It's you refusing to become complacent or not letting anything you do become "routine".

If you let your relationship with your spouse or partner become routine you can kiss it good bye.

Same thing goes for your physical conditioning.

Keep things fresh. That's why our Station Training program has millions of different combinations, one change in card placement brings about a whole new dimension to your training. Give it a shot.

Master Yourself,
