Writer's Block: Let’s Get Physical
Well I just started to take up Taekwondo so I guess my biggest goal would be become much more coordinated and be able to take better direction. It's embarassing that I cant even touch my toes, one of my friends joked that I couldn't even see them. (I swear that that is a huge lie on his part.) The other students in class give me encouragement and the instructors give me a much needed tap on the leg when I dont bend my knees before a kick. (Poor master Ceaser had to help me get out of the knot I had tied myself into the second day into classes. You can imagine. ^.^;) When it comes down to things that would hold me back... I realize it's all me. I'm usually quiet in nature and don't really like to pick fights but you could say Taekwondo you could say brings you out of your shell. "First you must control the mind, then your body will follow. You will even eventually be able to control the soul." That's what master Kim said, hence my need of coordination which will come once I become focused and loose my silly fear of being assertive. I'll beat me to make me better.
