Trusting the Process

Taekwondo, as with life, is a long journey filled with many ups and downs. The day you walk into a dojang and sign up for Martial Arts classes, you set a goal to become a Black Belt. What you may not realize is what it actually takes to get there. Then you may decide you want to be a champion competitor or an amazing Martial Artist. It all comes with a process that you may not be prepared for. It’s about trusting the process with Mueller’s Martial Arts.

Trusting the timing:

The first thing people don’t realize about achieving any goal in taekwondo is how long it will take to get there. If you’re training everyday, training outside of class, and putting forth your best effort every single day, it will be a lot faster. But the reality is that we are all human and have a lot of work to do to become the best Martial Artists we can be. That is a long process that takes years to complete. You have to trust that no matter how much time it takes, it’s for a good reason and will make you even better. Trust the timing.

Trusting your instructors:

Sometimes you may have moments of doubt whether that is the right way to learn, or if your teachers are being too picky with you. You put in what you feel is your best effort and it still doesn’t seem good enough to your instructors. They do this for a reason. Nothing in life comes easy, becoming a great Martial Artist shouldn’t be either. You have to remember that they are all highly qualified and have been training on their own taekwondo journey for many years. They follow the rules and guidelines set forth by the Masters that came before them. Everything they teach you and expect of you is all part of the process. Trust your instructors.

Trusting yourself:

You will have moments of self-doubt. You will try and fail, try again and fail even harder. You may feel like you will never get it, you will never achieve your goals or become the person you want to be. You only ever fail when you give up. Even if you have a lot to learn, even if it seems impossible, you have to trust yourself. You are capable of achieving anything you set your mind to, you just have to put in the hard work to get there. You have to trust that you are capable of so much more than you think you are. You have to trust yourself.

At Mueller’s Martial Arts, we give you all the tools you need to not only become an amazing Martial Artist, but also to achieve any goal you have in mind. In order to achieve those goals though, you have to trust the process. Trust us, and we will get you where you want to go.
