Hit me when I’m not looking

Martial arts, boxing and I guess, even life requires the ability to focus. You have to know where you want to be and you have to focus on looking for opportunities to get there. If you are easily distracted you will get hit and hits hurt, whether physical or emotional.

Sometimes, even if you are fully dedicated to your goal, you will still suffer from hits from unforeseen circumstances, these punches seem to come out of nowhere.

These are the times that you particularly need to concentrate on your direction. Don’t let a few setbacks, thumps and insults push you into a corner so that you lose your focus and collapse into the emptiness of nowhere to go and no reason to try.

Concentrate on where you want to be. Don’t waver, don’t be distracted and you may even arrive. Some of life’s punches are very unfair and can cause you to have to even reconsider your direction… no guarantees…
