PG Fabrizio Mansur Don't fight when you drill, don't drill when you fight. The people hurting business Create the most pain and chaos as possible "Worry not where the attacks will come... They will all come to you" Antonio Illustrisimo BEST MOMENTS ‘Test and see what’s working’ ‘Keep following up just to get a reply.’ ‘People don’t know how good you are unless you show them’ ‘The fortune is in the follow up’ Create the Space where i can make a mistake Use the Floor I cannot teach you in one day but i can open your mind in one day Mastery is not a destination, it is a progress Whatever comes to you, take it – and redirect it for your own good. "No drill, No skill." Important distinction: You cannot truly call yourself “peaceful” unless you are capable of great violence. If you are not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful, you’re harmless. like ive been told many times, there are techniques that you use as a beginner, there are techniques you can use as an advanced student, and techniques you can only use as a master. 1. May thy body be thy weapon. 2. He who masters the distance masters the fight. 3. A constantly moving fighter is hard to be touched. 4. There is no defense, only counter. 5. May thy blade never break in battle. 6. In fight, you are only as strong as the warrior next to you. Open your mind, shut your mouth.. and move until you can't move no more. So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and its purpose in the service of your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people and grovel to none. When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.” "If you dont know how to use weapons – you cannot defend against them." «Gerakan biar tertib, Langkah biar tepat, Pukulan biar Ikhlas …» – Bewegungen sollen geordnet sein, die Schritte genau, die Schläge aufrichtig. Let to your students examine the techniques with all the training methods available with as much skepticism as they can muster. Before they believe the techniques of your system, their first impulse should always be to find the evidence that disconfirms their most cherished beliefs and those of others. That is true science. PG Fabrizio Mansur I am all about fantasyland training --- god knows we all need an escape from reality now and then...understanding the borders that separate escapism and self defense goes a long way towards getting to fully enjoy both. "Remember, the advanced stuff, is just the basics done well" "Space is a place for NASA and the person defending" "You have to do more than just show up"
