Mental Supreme Featured on URBNET

December 5th, 2009

As a child of the 80s, my friends and I often glued ourselves to the floor when martial arts movies were on T.V. Nothing was more invigorating than seeing a guy overcome adversity by extending a warm can of whoop ass to his opponent. Besides the clich ending where the protagonist triumphs; my favorite parts were those montage training scenes where the main character goes from zero to hero in ten minutes. Whether it was learning to fight blind (Bloodsport), catching flies with chopsticks (The Karate Kid), or being trained by Bruce Lees spirit (No Retreat, No Surrender) victory only materialized after our champion demonstrated the five foundational disciplines of success: hard work, self motivation, commitment, critical thinking, and structure.
