Day 24 reflections: I wasted a whole year...
I joined this group over a year ago after seeing one of Sifu’s videos on Instagram where he smashed that punching bag with such thunderous impact that I had to replay that video a couple more times just to make sure it was real. Don't know about you, but I could literally feel the power ripple through the screen. I remember thinking: “That’s some modern-day Jedi training.” That moment lit something up in me. I got excited about learning Wing Chun, developing real internal power, and mastering the State. But I didn’t take much action other than joining the One Tao Family group and following Sifu on social media. I told myself things like: “What if I’m not good at it?” “What if it doesn’t work for me?” “I should probably save some money…” So instead of joining the Academy, I stayed on the sidelines. I’d watch some of the training videos in the courses, the occasional clip on Instagram, skim a few newsletters, but I didn’t really commit. A whole year passed like that with me watching from a distance while my excuses quietly won the mental battle. Then a few weeks ago, something shifted. That same excitement returned when I got another newsletter talking about an online webinar on martial arts and a fun META DOJO event. At first, I brushed it aside and told myself I was too busy for all this stuff. But this burning feeling inside kept coming back. I found myself scrolling through the Skool platform more and more to check out what was happening these days. Then one day, I just said: “You know what… fuck it! Stop overthinking it. Just show up for 30 days. No pressure. If it's not for me, I could walk away knowing I gave it a shot. I could always go back to my old life anyway, so what have I got to lose? Easy." But here I am—24 days in—and so much has changed for me that I wanted to share with you. I feel more energy in my body. It started with tingling in my hands that later spread to the whole body the more I showed up and did the training. I’ve had sharper insights at work and it's less stressful. I have clearer emotional awareness, and moments of flow I can’t fully explain.

Yo, this post strikes right to the heart M8. Your shift from “what if” to “fuck it, I’m in” is the real thunderous impact move…and honestly, way louder than any bag-smashin’ clip. You didn’t waste a year bro, you were just in pre-season training… mentally clearing the weeds so the roots could take hold. The tingling, the flow, the sharpness in life? Classic signs of energy finally listening to your call. The fact that you signed up for a year because you felt the ROI in just 24 days? CHOICE! Most people seem to have stayed trapped in the scroll zone…you actually made the leap.🙌🏽 “A tree that is slow to grow bears the best fruit. Do not mourn time; it was feeding your roots.” So yeah…no shame, no regret, only alignment. Keep flowin’, keep showin’ up, and keep confusing the version of you that thought you were gonna quit. You’re 100% in the right place, fam! Let it flow, let it grow.🫸🏽🤛🏽😎💫

Solid day M8! 700 chains pahnchies with that slow, steady groove is building with dedication. Diggin’ how you’re leaning into “slower is better,”… reminds me of the old saying: “Do not seek to move fast; seek to move without mistake, and speed will come of itself.” Great Dyer quote too. 🫸🏽🤛🏽😎

That’s such a clean session @Animesh Kumar short, focused, and all about sharpening awareness. You can feel that calm stacking up day by day like interest in a chi savings account.🫸🏽🤛🏽😎

Respect for grinding it out in that sauna of a day bro 🥵 800 punches with no music is some raw focus. Nature training plays out differently, especially when it comes with a free gallon’a sweat.😅
