Club Concepts
|
As written by Shihan Jon Alexander, these are
thoughts and aspects which should always be kept in mind,
not only when practising karate but also during everyday
life. |
|
CONCEPT NUMBER 1 |
| I live in this world which, no matter how
insignificant, I have helped to create. I cannot help what
is passed, however I can, through my practice of karate,
modify my future actions to bring about the improvement of
all things. |
| |
|
CONCEPT NUMBER 2 |
| I may not
understand all that I have been taught, yet I have been
instructed and must strive to find the meaning of that
instruction no matter how long it may take, knowing that
instruction can sometimes be absolute silence, a word, a
sentence or a loud shout. |
| |
|
CONCEPT NUMBER 3 |
| I will not
criticise others until I myself am perfect and above criticism. |
| |
|
CONCEPT NUMBER 4 |
| In instructing others, I
will try to remember my own lack of ability in understanding
and teach with patience and determination to improve the
ability of others and myself. |
| |
|
CONCEPT NUMBER 5 |
| You cannot find your way ahead until you go back the way you came. |
| |
|
|
Number 11
Meditation is not a means to an end, it is both the means and the end.
