Summary 1-9 : What Have We Done So Far? : TKF 010 Sifu TW Smith | Finding the Path Thru KungFu

Why do a Summary?

Something that I look for on podcasts, but don’t find often. A summary
of recent activities or "wake" helps me generate perspective.

What have we done so far? How have We Done?

This reminds me of something I intended to do.. and Ooops, I forgot.

My son and I spoke about his organizational skills. Then we pause a
moment and assess how is current effort and techniques are working.

It is so easy to get caught up in our current frustrations, focused on
current barriers, demands of our time, that we forget what we have
worked through. Where we have made progress and we can see motion if
we take time to look.

This applies to work, home, learning bagua, understanding a strategy,
performing a technique, I encourage you to take a moment and assess.

So, to practice what I am encouraging.

Thank You Dawn for your recent kind Facebook comment,

“Wow! Another treasure! I am happy and so very grateful to know that the
wisdom and lessons you are sharing, both in the podcasts and in the
kwoon are a part of my evolution and growth. Thank you!”
