An associate of mine pointed out that what we were doing today—by preparing our martial arts students for tournaments and demos—was paving the way for them towards what will hopefully become some of their most fond memories in life.
When we—at least for this associate and I—think back to our days of doing tournaments and martial arts demonstrations, we get all giddy inside and start to fan-boy over some of our favorite big moments.
…Moments we didn’t even realize would become some of our most fond that other instructors paved for us.
…And what a privilege to be able to lead others towards something that may very well end up being the same for them and their lives.
Inner Work Prompt: What are some of the most fond memories of your life? How can you pave the way for an experience like that for others?
