Even if you’re scared, do it scared…
Better to do it scared than not do it at all.
…you’re looking at video of a female black belt breaking 2 boards with a double-jump split kick on TV.
I remember that day. My heart was pounding as I tried to focus on this difficult break….I was pretty scared.
But our quickly put together demo team didn’t want to miss out on a chance of being in front of a large audience on live TV…
So I had noooo idea if I could pull that one off, but none of us ever really do. We just trust the process that we have trained hard enough and we go for it…one of the many reasons I love martial arts.
With all humility I say that doing things that are scary is the true meaning of having confidence…and I did it over and over again in ALL walks of my life…
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, but learning to do things…even if you’re scared is one of the greatest ways to achieve success
