Your Altitude is Determined by Your Attitude
According to the famous NASA sports psychologist Dr. Denis Waitley, “The most readily identifiable quality of a total winner is an overall attitude of personal optimism and enthusiasm.” One of the best lessons to learn in life is that even though we can’t control all of life’s circumstances, situations and people, we can control our attitude toward them. Through controlling our attitude we can learn to live a much richer life.
The right mental attitude can help you or your child enjoy life more, have better relationships with family, friends and neighbors, achieve better grades, make more money and enjoy better health.
William James, the father of American Psychology said, “The most important discovery of our time is that we can alter our lives by altering our attitudes.” At our school, our programs help children and adults discover positive ways to alter their attitudes.
One way we demonstrate this is by teaching our students to feel better about themselves by using their bodies correctly. The right posture and breathing pattern makes a big difference in how you feel. We help to reinforce these positive techniques.
Another way is to show the students how to take the blame as well as the credit for what happens to them. For example, when one of our students shows up for class without their belt and reports, “My mom left my belt at home”, we would ask, “Who’s belt is it?” They answer, “Well, it’s my belt.” We then ask, “So who’s responsibility is it to bring your belt?” The child understands the point and takes a step in the direction of real maturity.
At our school we reinforce a good mental attitude through our unique re-ward system of patches and belts. We also encourage people to laugh at their shortcomings in the school. We point out the fact that everybody makes mistakes. A failure at one task is not a failure in life. Our goal is for all students to find out that they can laugh and learn outside the school the same way they do inside.
Martial arts is more of a matter of practicing with the right attitude, rather than aptitude. In a study by Harvard University, 85 percent of the reasons for success and accomplishments were attributable to attitude, and only 15 percent were attributable to technical expertise. A ‘Yes I Can Do’ attitude can and does make all the difference.
