Yesterday I talked to the teens about confidence. I believe confidence is an internal knowing; it's a type of mental certainty.
I believe confidence comes from aligning thought and desire. In other words when there is something you want, and you allow no other thought of limitation, or negative belief to grip you - then you will begin to KNOW that your desire is coming.
At the dojo; we use meditation as one of the best tools to eliminate negative belief and therefore allow our natural POWER AND CONFIDENCE to shine through.
Here is a video that to me powerfully gives an example of a person who is a complete state of knowing and confidence. It's pretty amazing to see this joyful, unshakable knowing shine through this contestants words and actions. Enjoy!

The world is changing right before our eyes.
Isn't it wonderful to see that companies are taking a hard look at the way they do things - and then making ethical choices. Good stuff!

Some of the best Steve Jobs Quotes Ever.
I'm a Google fan. I love Android. Yet I have great appreciation for those who have been the great innovators of all times. Steve Jobs is one of those world changers.
In many of these quotes (not all) but many of these quotes you will find some of the best Martial Arts principles ever recorded. If I were to sum up the best of these in one line I would say this: "Care deeply about what you do - don't work for money alone - work from a sense of passion."
Thank you Steve Jobs for making this a better world.
Enjoy

I love these pictures of the mall!
These are some of the original architects drawings of the concept of the Lake District. I love teaching and working out here! (Click them to get a better view.)

The first day
OK; so it's not the best pic - but it's notable because it's the first picture I took at the new dojo. I was on my way out the door heading to Glendale; I'm glad the move was so fast!
