The assignment


The struggle is real

Life gives you so many experiences, some are good and some are bad. Struggling is the real meaning of life, without it you will not be able to do big things in your life. The more struggle, the more you succeed. You will meet so many people, some people will provide good experiences and some will give you a bad experience. Don't be affected by the people who give you a bad experience, instead be thankful they gave you a chance of finding someone or something that makes you someone who is better than before. Be strong and keep smiling in whatever condition. One day life will be tired of hurting you.


Know your assignment

Everything created was created to solve a problem. A car solves transportation problem,telephone communication problems etc. You were created to solve a problem; problems are catalyst for creativity. Somebody needs, wants you today. You are necessary to somebody somewhere today. You get rewarded according to the problem you solve.
You are absolutely perfect and genetically accurate for solving a specific problem for somebody on earth. Somebody needs exactly what you have been given by God. Someone is literally dying emotionally, mentally or spiritually waiting for you to come along and rescue them. You are their reward.



What you love most is the clue to your assignment; you will always have wisdom towards what you love. What really excites you, brings great enthusiasms and happy moments (days) of your life is a clue to your assignment.
What you hate is a clue as to something you are assigned to correct; you cannot really correct and or change something unless you have a hatred of for it…you cannot change what you tolerate. Hatred and Anger is passion, you need them.
What grieves you is a sign, clue, to something you are assigned to heal; what makes you cry is a clue to a problem God has anointed you to change, conquer and heal. Also, where you hurt most is a clue to what you may heal best.

My assignment

There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure. Anthony Robbins says, 'The meeting of preparation with opportunity generates the offspring we call luck.' Combine that with Buzz Durkin s reminder that 'success is waiting' and BOOM !
I feel I am lucky. I am grateful for this life that God has given me. I am happy, as I am getting to do work that I want to do and enjoy doing it. It seems the harder I work the luckier I get !

Shes just plastic

Shes just plastic she doesn't need to be nurtured or understood.

But we aren't plastic are we ? 
We enter the Dojo and take off our shoes 'to leave the dirt of the world behind us'. But when we leave that dirt is right there waiting for us isn't it.

Transfering this Dojo lesson to our own lives is tricky but it can be done. 

We hold on to toxic relationships out of the fear of letting go. Just like martial training there is more resolve required to let go than hold on. We say trust your block in class but in our head were saying 'but im gonna get hit'. Letting go is like a 'gut punch' every step of the way. Ghandi said, "I will not let anyone walk through my mind with their dirty feet"

We Fear Failure. Don't make it personal, seperate the failure from your identity. Release the need for approval of others, often our fear of failure is based on our fear of being judged or losing the respect or esteem of others. Dr Seuss says, "If you don't mind it don't matter".

We procrastinate. Recognize that your procrastinating. Re-prioritize make time for whats important to you. Get to the gym, plan your meals and portion, get to class ! You say your a warrior but your deadlier with your keyboard than your side kick, straight right , headlock or sweep. The trash won't take itself out of your kitchen or out of your life. ACT !!

We aren't plastic, 

we do need to be nurtured and understood

It starts by taking off your shoes and leaving the dirt of the world behind you, in your head and in your heart. See you in class.

Who is your Sensei ...."There can be only one" !

          So many are responsible for shaping my development. For years I have been mentored by those I choose, ....not only one. From each I learned and experienced signifigant and diverse things.

Mentorship is the impartation of
information. Mentorship is accepting
perfect knowledge from an imperfect
man. Your mentor is anyone who
consistently teaches you what you want
to know. It was the secret of Elijah
and Elisha; Moses and Joshua; Paul
and Timothy. Pursue and extract the
knowledge of the mentors that God has
made available to your life. Mentorship
Is Learning Through The Pain of
Another. Your Future Is Determined By
Who You Choose To Believe.

“A wise man will hear, and will
increase learning; and a man of understanding
shall attain unto wise counsels,”
(Proverbs 1:5).



Understanding different relationships
People come into your life for a season. Others entertain various parts of your life. We need to understand that everyone will treat us differently.
 Dr Mike Murdock said,
People are different around different people. 
Some manipulate via affection.
 Few love enough to put another first.” 

That puts two things into question:
1) A person’s self-esteem
2) A person’s values




Proper use of relationships will result in proper life managementIt’s not just in being disciplined enough to manage your time but also people. You will need to know why some people come into your life. You see some want you to be a friend. Some want you to be a confidante. Some want you to be a “Ladder” to their future.


A great example in my mind is former World Kickboxing Champion Dennis Alexio who publicly talked about Joe Lewis as a mentor then snubbed him once he was World Champion..

You must be willing to listen to others.
 We all see through different eyes, feel with different hearts, and hear with different ears.

 Involve as many people as possible in your dream.
 You need people to assist you in order to achieve your dream. 
Solomon wrote and reached out to many to assist him in the building of the Temple.

He listened to people.
He listened to kings.
He listened to leaders.
He even listened to two quarreling harlots.


 He listened to enthusiastic voices of encouragement wherever he found them.

 Fall in love with people and people will fall in love with you. 
“People don't care how important you are, 
it's important that you care.”
Remembering this simple key can make a profound difference.
  • Those around you are great. Become worthy of them.
  • Those around you can become great. Become their “bridge to greatness.”
  • Uncommon achievers recognize and reward other uncommon achievers.
In In retrospect I wonder how many of my achievments were empty 'rewards".
I aspire to create uncommon achievement in others and through this I am building a legacy  forged in a unified fire of wills , mine and my student.

In Your Corner

   Success in business, victory on the field or in the ring requires a leader who promotes teamwork, tenacity, perseverance and, above all else, the unrelenting desire to win. 








   By chasing the unattainable, perfection; we can catch excellence.. Good coaching can achieve victories but true victory is achieved by changing lives.










 From a young age, we're raised to believe that we can accomplish pretty much anything so long as we work hard enough to achieve it. And, for the most part, that makes sense, at least intuitively. If you study for three hours while your roommate studies for one, you'll probably do better on the test. If you spend 50 hours at work every week while your peer spends 30, you'll stand a better chance of getting a raise or a promotion.




  A cornerstone belief of Western culture is, as long as you work hard, you're going to be successful.The problem with this philosophy is hard work isn't always enough.
Hard work isn't efficient work.  If it takes the person next to you three hours to complete a task that you could have completed in an hour.
Hard work doesn't encourage innovation. You need to try new tactics and strategies, incorporate new ideas and learn new things. constantly.
"Sometimes the teacher, Always the student"
I remember the day I first walked into the gym / dojo and put on the focus mitts first. I warmed up the fighters, one after another, and then followed them around yelling out adjustments while they trained and sparred. I didn’t notice it then but this was my first time in the gym without wrapping up.
In fact, the mitts stayed on my hands the whole time. It wasn’t until the session ended when I realized…“Oh shit, I’m a fight trainer now.”
A part of me died inside that day.
 “I’m still too young! I can still fight!”
I always thought of myself as a fighter. I never fantasized about being a trainer. 
I've learned to coach every fighter differently. It’s about accepting the fighter and accepting his or her results. Some fighters are faster. Some fighters have more power. Some fighters have more stamina. Some fighters will win more than others. Success means different things to different people. For some, success is a gold medal. For others, it’s surviving one whole fight. For many, it’s losing weight and looking sexy.

 Whatever the individual’s goal is, you have to respect that. It is THEIR GOAL, not yours....
