Train to be patient

After yesterday's  GuruMuayThai training I've had a short conversation with a girl who was kind of interested in our classes.  
Quite energetic and  happy looking girl in her early twenties. 
I said; kind of interested, as she had a bit of self doubt. She wasn't sure if she has enough patience to train MuayThai. She mentioned that she likes when achievement comes quick and you can see the quick results. 

I do think that she was brave enough, by making this kind of statement.
She was cleaver looking girl and she agreed when I told her that it doesn't really matter what skills she would like to improve. If she wanted to learn: martial arts, foreign language, learn how to cook, dance, play the piano or make photography. If she wants to develop those skills to really good level she needs to learn how become patient, consistent and never give up.
On the other hand this kind of activities are also great tools to work on our attitude and skills of patience. 

It is very Important for us and our children whom are leaving in a modern world, to undertake this kind of activities, stimulate our brains and learn those precious values.
We all want things to come to us easily. We all like comfortable lives and we tend to look for a shortcuts.

But I believe that we will all agree that things which come easily don't carry so much value.
Our skills, our experience is something priceless.Something that no one can take away from us.
It will stay with us forever, is only us who can decide what level we are going to bring it to.

If there is something in your life that you belie is worth doing and you thing it is going to improve your life or lives of others. Don't matter how long you think it will take.
Begin today, so it will take one day less.
