This photo is me competing at the World Tang Soo Championships in Pittsburgh Pa. around 1997…

I was also a TV weather anchor, and actually had to sign a contract with FOX news that they could terminate me if I for any reason became disfigured in the face from training and competing!

That actually deterred me for a minute..

Not from my training, but from taking that job!

I could have quit training right there to further my extremely competitive career…

But as I look back now 27 years later, I can see that I did the right thing, because here I am, still teaching and training today long after my TV career came and went.

I always tell my students, if there’s one thing our martial arts training teaches us, it’s how to “not quit!”

And truthfully, I dont always have all the answers, and I don’t know everything…

But I’ll figure it out…

because I know how to “not quit.
