Demo Perspective

Today was bitter sweet.  Firstly it was the first day back in the Kwoon since my work departure weeks ago.  It was a chance to see the blood sweat and tears that have went into the demo for Canada Day.

As always, when you have been part of something from the beginning, and have repeated it many times, it is difficult to step back and see the progress you are making. There are few advantages to being on the outside of an event like this one, but one thing it does afford me is a clear perspective on the product that has been developed in my absence..

Watching this demo I equated to the motivational boost of the black belt ceremony.  It was inspirational to see how far each person, and the team had come since I had left.  To everyone involved it was AWESOME!  It was affirmation to me why this group of people are the ones I choose to be around.  Watching the demo makes me proud and extremely honored that I can be a part of this.

This could not have come at a better time, as currently I have been struggling with the transition of being away.  To those of you at the Kwoon today that I had a chance to speak with, thank you for your words of kindness, motivation and support, they are much appreciated, as are your comments and blog postings which I have resorted to following regularly.

To everyone in the Demo on Monday, we will see you there. I can’t wait to experience it, and offer any support I can!  Good Luck!
