Beta Beffudlement

 I’m not sure why? Nerves, brain blockage, excitement? It very well is a mix of all of these. 

I presented my weapon Beta form 3 days after being back on the mats after 8 weeks post surgery. It did not go well. And the not so funny thing is I ran through the entire form more than once the Saturday before. And 1000 times in my head over the last 8 weeks. And this was the form I learned last year for IHC. Why then did I get 5 or 6 moves in, and start to repeat the same move 3 times? Your guess is as good as mine. All of the above, and a hundred more excuses. Yes, excuses. Be better. And like Todai Thelwall stated 999 more times. And more.

    I see the positive in all this. You are back on the mats with a can do and will do attitude. You are moving forward maybe just not at the speed you’d want to be.
