Ultimate excellence

Today is a day when we all come together and remember the most excellent man who ever lived. Jesus Christ never committed a sin. He couldn't improve any more because he was( and is) already perfect. Jesus is who we all should strive to be like. Whether your man, woman or child you should read of his works daily and apply them to your life. We should strive to be like him because he is the Ultimate in excellence.

Don't think you can, know you can

If you've ever seen "The Matrix" you probably remember Neo's training. Morpheus is constantly repeating the phrase "don't think, know. " Neo followed his advice and he did what at first was impossible, landed a hit on Morpheus. This applies to our own self improvement as well. Don't think you can run 5 miles, don't think you can bench 300 lbs, don't think you can shatter bricks, know you can. Of course a little bit later in the movie Neo has to jump from one building to another 50 stories up above a busy street, and he fails. Sometimes no amount of belief can make you succeed, so you must train that much harder.

Nothing to say.......

I've tried to think of some thing wise and cool to talk about, but I couldn't think of anything. So I guess I'll just talk about breaking bricks. This is a classical feat of martial strength. My mom constantly asks why I would want to do that. My answer is always because it is fun. Who doesn't like the feeling of crushin something. It's like steping on an ant or stomping ice till it cracks. You do it cause you can. I guess that's all.

Quote

I was looking stuff up online when I found this very cool quote. It is by a man named Lao Tzu. The beginning part goes:
" When you see excellence you should strive to surpass it..."
This can be applied to anything. If you see an excellent martial artist, you should strive to surpass him. If you see an excellent photographer surpass him. Whatever your hobby you could always get better and there will always be someone better than you. Many people have said the quote " shoot for the moon, if you miss you will land among the stars."

I guess I will end for now. I have training to do.

The beginning

Almost everyone in my family has a blog, so I decided to get one! I have no friends, so the only people who will be reading this is my Mom and my sister.
Anyways, you are probably wondering why I chose to call my blog Everything with Excellence. I chose that name because, though I don't really live up to it, that is my philosophy for life. I believe that when you do something you should do it excellently, even when no one notices it. My sister is probably dead from laughter, so I better stop now.

Goodbye!!!
