Defeat is a state of mind; no one is ever defeated until defeat has been accepted as a reality. It is not a shame to be knocked down by other people. The important thing is to ask when youre being knocked down, Why am I being knocked down? If a person can reflect in this way, then there is hope for this person. Do not allow negative thoughts to enter your mind for they are the weeds that strange confidence. Put going the extra mile to work as part of ones daily habit. What you must not do now is to worry and think of the Nationals that is now of the past. What you HABITUALLY THINK largely determines what you will become. Remember, success is a journey, not a destination. I have faith in your ability. You will do just fine. The attitude, “You can win if you want to badly enough,” means that the will to win is constant. No amount of punishment, no amount of effort, no condition is too “tough” to take in order to win. Such an attitude can be developed only if winning is closely tied to the practitioner’s ideals and dreams. I wish neither to possess nor to be possessed. I no longer covet paradise. More important, I no longer fear hell. The medicine for my suffering I had within me from the very beginning but I did not take it. My ailment came from within myself, but I did not observe it, until this moment. Now I see that I will never find the light unless, like the candle, I am my own fuel, consuming myself. Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure the difficult one There is “what is” only when there is no comparing and to live with “what is” is to be peaceful. Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves. Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water my friend. Jeet Kune Do, you see, has no definite lines or boundaries — only those you make yourself. If you spend too much time thinking about a thing you will never get it done We have great work ahead of us, and it needs devotion and much, much energy. To grow, to discover, we need involvement, which is something I experience every day — sometimes good, sometimes frustrating. No matter what, you must let your inner light guide you out of the darkness. The ideal is unnatural naturalness, or natural unnaturalness. I mean it is a combination of both. I mean here is natural instinct and here is control. You are to combine the two in harmony. Not if you have one to the extreme, youll be very unscientific. If you have another to the extreme, you become, all of a sudden, a mechanical man No longer a human being. It is a successful combination of both. That way it is a process of continuing growth. Be water, my friend. showing off is the foolss idea of glory. If you truly love life, dont waste time because time is what life is made of. My style? You can call it the art of fighting without fighting. Use no way as way, make no limitation, limitation. Boards, dont hit back. ~Bruce Lee Never trouble trouble till trouble troubles you. Ill not willingly offend, nor be easily offended. I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times. I dont fear the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks but the man who has practiced 1 kick 10,000 times! Emotion can be the enemy, if you give into your emotion, you lose yourself. You must be at one with your emotions, because the body always follows the mind. The martial arts are based upon understanding, hard work and a total comprehension of skills. Power training and the use of force are easy, but total comprehension of all of the skills of the martial arts is very difficult to achieve. If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, youll never get it done. Make at least one definite move daily toward you goal. To understand techniques, you must learn that they contain a lot of condensed movement. Dont fear failure...in great attempts it is glorious even to fail. Proprio come per mantenere una buona salute a volte bisogna prendere una medicina sgradevole, così per poter fare le cose che ci piacciono spesso bisogna fare qualcosa che non ci piace. Los errores son siempre perdonables, si se tiene la valentía de admitirlos. If you want to learn to swim jump into the water. On dry land no frame of mind is ever going to help you.
