When you hear the word Test, how do you respond? Does it trigger anxiety or excitement?Here are my top two tips for testing. The first one is CONSISTENTLY DO THE WORK. Nurture the discipline needed to consistently do the work. Little but consistent steps will lead to confidence. The second one is to BE PRESENT MINDED. In other words, whatever you are doing focus on doing that to the best of your ability. If you are supposed to be at attention, make that the best attention possible. Don’t let past failures or anxieties of the future bog you down.We look [ Read More ]

Isn’t modern technology amazing? Sometimes it feels like we’re in a science fiction movie. Think about it. We can talk and see someone from across the globe with our phone. Crazy, right? With being so connected, we are often disconnected from those in front of us. Go out to eat this week and look around you. Who is actually having a conversation? My encouragement for whoever reads this post is to make more effort to be connected with their family this week.
We have all heard the phrase, let’s agree to disagree. Isn’t it great to be able to disagree with someone yet still walk away with mutual respect? This week, we will focus on improving our tolerance through patience and open mindedness.
Thank you to all of our awesome members and families for making our Belt Promotions and Christmas Party the biggest and best yet. The food and fellowship was fantastic! Now it’s time to train and break all those new belts and stripes in:)
