Have you ever noticed how some people always seem to have an unstoppable upbeat attitude and maintain a strong zest for life? Black Belt Leaders call this an Indomitable Spirit. It’s that extra energy and enthusiasm they put into everything they do.
Besides a powerful non-quitting spirit, they have a tremendous hunger and drive for their Martial Arts and for personal growth and development. This spirit is a positive energy force that shows their passion, you can see it in their eyes, you can hear it in their voice, and you can feel it whenever you’re around them. A person with this spirit is always more ambitious than the average person. They are also more likely to accomplish more, take more action and be very achievement-oriented. They are far less likely to get discouraged, because they are better conditioned and prepared to handle the setbacks that they encounter. They always influence others in a positive fashion. Their enthusiasm and optimism becomes contagious to others.
It’s been said that enthusiasm is contagious, so is the lack of it. Wouldn’t you rather be a person that brings others up to higher levels of excellence, instead of the person that drags people down to mediocrity?
