The Game- The continuous search for perfection

As a prelude to my previous post, i should have mentioned where the idea came from.

During my very young years when I was 17 years old, I was obsessed with martial arts. Not to fight on the street, in fact I never did, I always found a way to talk things out and that was more enjoyable than to break into a fight (or sometimes the guys were too big :), in fact all my injuries were in the practice hall, never in a competition nor in a fight.

Nevertheless I was obssessed with finding the best technique in the world, thus kept flipping between karate, Kung-fu, Tai-Chi, free-form and lastly Russian Combat Sambo.
But I always doubted what is the best technique.

It took me 20 years to lately figure out that the real technique is a mixed and very personal to each one. There is in fact no perfect technique for everyone But this realization itself was an awakening one for me. I can put the martial art thing (hopefully) to rest now.

So there is some kind of knowledge to get the best of every situation. It could be the best coffee you drink at that specific shop or the best tennis player in the world. They all figured out the best way.

This is actually the difference between a successful person and a looser. The looser just can't figure it out. Doesn't know what to do, thus he/she would rather flip the TV-remote control forever in search of something.

Therefore, you find people like tony Robins, David Bach, Aaron Raymond all have figure out that modeling the most successful people is one way to achieve that. And that is also why mentoring is such a hot thing right now, and I think it does pay off.

So the next time you don't know what to do, just hang on, and try to figure it out, there is a way somewhere and if you just hang on there, and don't give up, you will be awarded a very neat surprise...I promise you that :)
