The basics of footwork, sensitivity, sticking ability, center of balance, and the understanding of how to use pressure or remove pressure are the keys to acquiring skill in this drill.
How much time do YOU dedicate to the basics?
Even before mentioning footwork, the first element you should focus on is Balance Training.
Bruce Lee once mentioned how he turned every moment in his day in a training session, even with some thing so basic as putting on his pants, he would turn it into a balancing act.
"Balance is when you fight like hell to catch it" Sijo mentioned during the seminar.
Just like a plane is never on course 99% of the time, small adjustments are made to eventually land in the right direction, the same holds true with balance.
Balance is one ability we all lose as we age and what better way to maintain it as long as you can through special drills like Chi Sao.
The better your stability, the better you can deliver devastating power in your strikes and by having a decent control over your center of balance you can make it way harder for your opponent to throw you, sweep you, lift you or manipulate your body is such a way to put you in a compromising position.

After you've taken care of your balance training then you can move on to footwork development, jumping ability, Ladder work, Grounding work and Closing Attacks.
If you can't reach your opponent you're in trouble. Don't you agree?
When you do decide to attack, you have to do so in an explosive manner, with speed and power, while maintaining control over yourself.
