Upgrading ...

Renovate just one room … and you will soon find yourself renovating all the other rooms - to match - to achieve ‘congruence’. On the mat - renovate just one technique - really ‘drill down’, dissect and understand it, and eventually, you will renovate your whole game (a lifetime of work).

The next logical step - although undertaken by too few (in my experience) is to then ‘renovate’ the other areas of our lives - away from the mat … our relationships, our financial circumstances, the places we live in, the number of ways we can extract joy from life, etc. It all starts with one small renovation - one small step toward excellence … and we build from there. This kind of thinking is something I try to instil in all of my students. JBW
