3 Reasons People Fail At Learning Martial Arts
Failure can be final in many ways.
If you are taking a test to get licensing in medicine, you can't take it 100 times and pass.
There's a finite number of chances that you get in that world.
Failure in the medical world is finite, it's the end for many.
When it comes to martial arts and learning self-defense millions of people fail, and it is final for them.
It's not because any form creates that, it's mainly because people have the wrong expectations, and they simply walk away from training, learning, and living within the ideas and philosophies that are evidenced in learning the fighting spirit.
The following are just 3 reasons people fail to learn today.
Unrealistic Ideas of Training A lot of professionals in the field of teaching kung fu, karate, and more have seen this a lot.
There is always a student or potential student that comes in with expectations of being the next Bruce Lee or becoming the next big UFC champion.
They have stars in their eyes and they are ready to learn, as fast as they can.
They have a great and zealous nature, and they get frustrated when the training is hard, disciplined, and tiresome.
Not only that, they get frustrated when they aren't progressing to breaking stacks of bricks or ice blocks with their bare hands.
When they aren't mastering the arts, they quit.
This happens a lot, and it can stifle you if you don't have a realistic idea of what true self-defense education is about.
They Assume It's Too Costly Money is always an issue in life.
You will find that there are financial highs and lows to everything that you can possibly work with in life.
If you want to learn martial arts, however, you will find that the barter system is alive and well.
If you don't have anything to barter, than it becomes necessary to figure out what you can do to offer yourself to the teacher, and this doesn't mean disrespect (sexual or anything).
Perhaps you can clean, wash dishes, hang lights, print flyers, sell memberships, or anything that will be of service.
You will need to become a servant, humble yourself, and be real with your teacher.
Otherwise, you'll assume that you can't learn, or train because of money.
That's one way many quit, and they don't ever achieve their best.
It Gets Too Difficult Look at the training regimen of people like Bruce Lee.
OK, look at the training regimen of someone like George St.
Pierre.
If you look at what they have to go through to compete, you will realize that mastering any martial art today is extremely difficult.
Once you pass a certain level, there is nothing easy about it.
People give up because of that.
Life gets difficult, and sports are a metaphor for life in many ways.
If you can master martial arts, and evolve continually within the world that you're in, you will not give up.
The above 3 reasons are just a handful of excuses that can stop you from learning and mastering anything that you want in martial arts.
If you want to fight, and you want to gain balance in your world, do not let the above stop you.
Figure out what stifles you, and discipline yourself to fight back.
