I Ho Chuan

Sifu Brinker has started the process of building next year's I Ho Chuan team. I remember how I felt at this time last year and it was a good feeling. Not really knowing 100% what you're getting into but a lot of excitement nonetheless. 

I can say without exaggeration that joining SRKF was the single best decision I've ever made; joining the Horse Team last year was a close second.  My year so far has been successful. There are a ton of things that I need to improve but I have come a long way. Objectively, I'm doing terribly, but I'm still happy with what I've accomplished so far and with the changes that I've made in my life. 

One of the misconceptions that I had about the I Ho Chuan is that I thought it would be a hardship to get through and nothing could be further from the truth. The I Ho Chuan teaches you how to create more time in your life by getting rid of wasted time. I don't think I could ever go back now. At this point I feel like this is just something I do now. I'm not sure why I would ever not be on the team, especially since I have so much I can do better. With the excitement of the upcoming year I have to make sure I don't look ahead and ensure that I stay focused on what I'm doing right now.
