HAMPIONS TRAIN FOR GAIN!
Some people train hard, some train smart, the goal should be to
train harder and smarter. This is the best way to insure positive
and consistent gains in your martial arts training and in life.
Most aspects of Martial Arts training is very measurable and predictable.
Flexibility, strength, endurance and skill level, are all measurable and vital areas of progress and growth for a BLACK BELT CHAMPION.
The results and benefits you obtain, are a direct reflection of the actions you take and the attention you give each area. Champions strive to make positive progress and continually take action to move forward, eventually leading toward bigger and better gains.

Train for Gain by allowing enough time to warm-up and get focused on
training. Once warmed up, get into the game, play it all out and pay
close attention to your form and detail. The devil is always in the details!
Train for Gain by understanding the concept of progress-vs-perfection. Meaning that before we can ever be great at anything, we must be willing to start the learning process. Part of this process is making mistakes, correcting them and practicing the correct skill, over and over again.
Train for Gain is understanding the ratchet effect. This is when we take three steps forward and sometimes take two steps backwards. Understand that we are still ahead of where we began.
Train for Gain by listening to your instructors and coaches. Always be coach-able, stay curious and eager to learn and improve yourself. Most important, keep your goal clearly in mind, and train hard for gain and
you’ll always get better!

Champions are GOODFINDERS!
CHAMPIONS are GOODFINDERS!
Becoming a GOODFINDER is a great habit.
It can lead to better relationships in every area of your life. Simply because the more
you focus on the positive, the less distracted and focused you will be by the negative.
BLACK BELT CHAMPIONS strive to master their people skills as well as their Martial Arts.
They always aim to be great team players, in the dojo, as well as outside. At home, school and/or in the workplace. Searching and finding the good in others is one part of being a great team player.
GOODFINDERS search for all the greatest qualities in other people and situations. The main objective is to seek and find the best in people and bring out their most positive qualities.
In the dojo, you may notice that a team mate has shown recent improvement in their flexibility or a particular skill. Maybe they’ve improved their fitness and they’re becoming
more toned. A Champion Goodfinder is quick to praise and compliment team mates on their improvements.
Everyone likes being appreciated and receiving sincere compliments.
Whenever you offer a kind word or a compliment, both people benefit,
you as the giver and the other person as the receiver.
BE A GOODFINDER! Be a force for good; ignite people’s positive energy and emotions. Search for the good and you will quickly find it… search for the garbage and negatives,
and you’ll find that too.
You may need to dig through a ton of dirt, just to find an ounce of gold, however, your not looking for dirt, you’re searching for gold. There’s a lot of GOLD in the people that train at our dojo… Champions bring it to surface everyday!

Champions are Motivated for Success!
CHAMPIONS are MOTIVATED for SUCCESS!
What keeps a Champion so motivated? ACTION!!!
Action creates Motivation!
Too often, people are waiting to get motivated, before they take any action.
That’s not how motivation works.
Once you take action…motivation follows.
The more action you take, the more motivated you will become. Once you decide what
you want…in your Martial Arts, in your education, in your life, you must take action.

“You don’t need to be great to get started, but you do need to get
started to be great!” - Les Brown < Best Selling Author >
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It’s true in anything. If you want to become a confident, capable and well conditioned Black Belt Champion, you must take action to get to class and your going to need to take action
on improving your skills and conditioning. NO ACTION=>NO RESULTS!
MASSIVE ACTION=>MASSIVE RESULTS!
If you want to become smarter, you must take action to read and study more. If you want
to become wealthy and successful, you must take action to become wealthy and successful.
The more action you take, and the better actions you take, the better results you will achieve.
Motion intensifies Emotion…once you get up and get moving, you’ll feel better, think better and take better actions. Anytime you take action and get in motion…you improve
your emotion.
Doing nothing and thinking negative thoughts causes great harm to
your mind, body and spirit, and can destroy valuable opportunities.
To get to the TOP...Start by getting off your BOTTOM!
