Kung Fu is Hard Work

An important distinction exists between learning kung fu and learning about kung fu.  Many times people get the two confused.  While they can support one another, the distinction remains.  To learn kung fu, one must put forth physical and mental energy, one must put forth hard work.  To learn about kung fu, one need only pick up a book or look on the internet.  No matter how many youtube videos, movies, documentaries, books, or website articles you view or read, do not think that knowing about kung fu equates to knowing kung fu.

If you know it in your head but not your body, it will do little good in a physical confrontation.  To learn it in your body, you need to play a lot of kung fu.  Have faith in the system, relax, and your body will come to know kung fu.

Train hard. Relax hard.
