The 5 main points in Bruce Lee's philosophy (according to his daughter)


1. Feel into your own vital energy and use your heart as a channel for understanding how your energy wants to take a physical form.
2. Participate in life and make note of what moves you, bot good and bad. Investigate.
3. Cultivate the good and follow the bad to its solution.
4. Make a list of goals. Work towards them.
5. Learn from your mistakes. Keep going. Practice, practice, practice.

Quote of the day

“There are no limits. There are plateaus, and you must not stay there; you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you.”
(Bruce Lee)

Interesting quote, as i just started to train in the same martial art like Bruce Lee, Wing Chun, but even more fascinating that i find this quote through my memory training research. When they studied how to improve your memory retention, they find something that puzzle them, that after you improve your memory 10-20 times more in a short period of training (3-12 months), you reach a plateau. Galton and his colleagues believed that this is the upper limit of our innate abilities - an insurmountable wall that cannot be surpassed. But Ericsson (you know him, is the guy that discovered that you need 10.000 hours to master a skill that you do not have innate affinity with it) find something even more extraordinary after he studied ice skating champions. If you do only the moves that you excel at it, you will reach the plateau, but if you do the moves you have not yet mastered and constantly improve yourself, you will increase your skill again and again, without reaching any plateau. And it will not kill you, it will make you to go over the mastery level, to unique heights that were never achieved before. Think about this, next time you want to improve something.

Have a good night!
