Hey, Amy
here.
We had a guest teacher last night in martial arts. He's a 4th degree back belt in Aikido, which is a soft technique, much different than Taekwondo (the art that I study).
One thing I love most about martial arts is that, when you are learning from a master, there are so many parts of the teaching that have
nothing to do with the actual skill, but that are more about life in general.
Many of the teachings are about martial arts when they teach them, but they definitely carry over into other areas of our lives and businesses.
Last night, the Aikido teacher said so many things like this, that were easy to apply to the mindset needed in business as an entrepreneur, and in life in general.
There was so much gold in his teaching last night.
He even gave us permission to make the moves our own... to remember that it doesn't have to be perfect, that we each have our own style and personality that can be applied to our technique.
This, like so many of the other things he taught, are also true about business and marketing and life.
