Perseverance

When looking into self defense training people should have an idea of how much time they will be able to invest in the training. How many times a week they will be able to attend class should be realistically evaluated. But it’s probably more time than you think. Of course people are busy with jobs, families and responsibilities and with all the things you must plan in your schedule. Often times the first thing that is cut is our time to train. It becomes less important then everybody else and their needs. It loses its priority status because it is not something that affects the here and now. It is not high on the ‘to do’ list because it can get done tomorrow with no serious consequences today. Or can it?

We don’t get to pick the time and day when we will absolutely need our self defense training. So by that fact alone putting it off isn’t smart planning. We should think about our time in training as an investment – an investment in ourselves and in our families. It’s not just about you even if you are the only going to the class. Self defense training teaches you valuable skills that can use to protect yourself and your loves ones.

Training takes effort and it starts with just getting to the class. It takes your time and energy and if put toward a positive goal, it will be time and energy will spent. What you want to achieve is up to you and only you can be the one relied upon to actually do it. Whatever form of self defense training you have decided upon you do have to train enough so that the movements and techniques become committed to muscle memory and is delivered as second nature. You need to train enough so that you don’t have to think so much about it as you just have to do it.

Perseverance as definition means; steady, persistence in a course of action, a purpose, a state, etc., especially in spite of difficulties, obstacles, or discouragement. We must perseverance physically and mentally when we defend ourselves in a violent attack and we can start overcoming the difficulties, obstacles and discouragements in our lives by making getting to our self defense class a top priority today.
