Empowering People

When you engage in empowering people you should never expect anything back. When you're involved in this you must find the passion to do it and be content in it. At times, I seems selfish to have the passion because it feels good. However, the empowerment will lift-motivate people and help them take thier course.

It could be something as small as showing them something infront of thier face that was not so apparent to them. It could be something as large as helping them carry the banner of thier cause.

Yes, at times people who empower others die pennyless but what else is thier to die for.

Decisiveness: sen sen no sen

Well, I have been studying and practicing the concept of sen sen no sen in a realm outside of martial arts and its really takes a keen sense. Fudoshin and sen sen no sen go hand in hand and the right balance is a challenge. My sense of intent has certainly been developed over the years which has been an asset today. I could only imagine that it will improve in the future with more practice.

I am putting these skills into play in my daily and public life which may prove to be effective, efficient, and invaluable.

We shall see.

Face Marred By Dust & Sweat

I cant help but put myself into the fray of things. I especially enjoy interrupting the selfish horders who deceive the people. I frequently ask myself why I do it and I always get the same answer...because I must.

"The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause who at best, if he wins, knows the thrills of high achievement, and, if he fails, at least fails daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."
