If you ever went to a karate class, you would think he died and went to hell. No, not heaven. Hell. For soon it would be quite boring with repetition. You see, in karate is not learned 400 movements at a time. Instead, learn a movement of 400 times.

The day someone comes out of the shadows to put a fist in the face, instinctively see the benefit of repetition. In a split second, they will react without consciously thinking about it. This is the power of repetition.

The brain only learns through repetition and extreme danger.

If there is an extreme danger, the brain stores information on a priority basis. If the information is not life and death based on brain needs repetition. That’s why you can always remember where to find the spoons in the kitchen, but can not remember where we parked the car.

And yet most people get bored with repetition. It’s old hat to say. They listen to an audio tape of learning once and then listen to the next. And the next. Learning never, never implemented. I can listen to most audio at least 5 times and some tapes I’ve heard 50 times. You have to learn, listen and implement. Then do the same thing 400 times.

Do three things. We have dedicated our year to just three.

1) Activity Partners 2) Strategic 3) Content Development

And every day of the year, we made sure to do these three things. In one year, which is about 365 times or more. 400 things to do three times this year and you think you died and went to hell.

And then he found the sky.
