Discipline

"Discipline" that is I usually hear in some master in martial arts. But this word is abuse not only by the masters of martial arts but also in their students. Base on my experience and observation and some research the most important as a martial artist is patient and discipline, if you have this two and you use it in a right way then you will called a master because you used what you have learned in martial arts. When I was a student of martial arts I usually put in my mind that discipline is one of the must important in martial arts. I can say discipline is one of the most important because it brings you comfortable and they will respect you, not because you know about martial arts but it is because you know how to respect the people around you. To the student of martial arts always put in your mind that discipline is most of the important in martial arts. Used it wisely and you feel comfortable in your self.

Self-defense

Yesterday in the morning around 6 am when I’m going home and I’m waiting a jeep to ride home I’ve got this two guys behind my back. I observed them that they have a suspicious move. For safety, I across to the street so that I can see the two guys behind my back. While I’m waiting a jeep, one guy across to the street and buy cigarettes, I did not know that not only to buy cigarettes but they have a plan to hold-up me, one guy held me up with a knife at my back and say hold-up, and the other guy already move to across in the street to help to her tenant. Before the other guy make across to the street I’ve already twist the hand of the guy at my back at the same time this arm the knife in the hand of the hold upper. While the other guy across in the street he had something to pull out on his jacket and oh…my god he pull out a samurai on his jacket it’s not long but the blade is to sharp. So what I did is to run, that is the best self-defense I know, and think god the two guys did not run after me. What I learn in this experience is, martial art is a big help to our selves. One thing that I’ve learn also is don’t be confuse to what to do when the time comes like what I experience.
