Welcome to Episode #131 of the Fight for a Happy Life podcast, “Transformation in the Martial Arts.”
You’re a good student, right? You’re always searching for new techniques, new exercises, new ideas, and new information. But there’s something you should know—
You might be wasting your time!
That’s right! It took me a long time to figure out that knowledge isn’t power… and neither is action. Real power only comes when you allow knowledge and action to CHANGE you.

The martial arts should offer you more than just a list of fancy moves. At its best, training should offer you a method of personal transformation.
Instead of asking, “What do I want to learn,” start asking, “Who do I want to become?” Answer that and your training might change, too.
Check out the full discussion below and let me know what you think!
