Welcome to Episode #32 of the Fight for a Happy Life podcast, “Lazy Lying Losers.”
Ask anyone if they’re trying their best and they’ll probably say yes… but are they really?
As a teacher, I’d say most students do NOT try their best. As a student, I’d say most teachers do NOT try their best, either! That dismal combination of low effort makes learning a slow and tedious process.
But it doesn’t have to be that way!
In this show, I not only explore the reasons behind holding back, I challenge you to step up and push harder. Not just on the mats, but in every area of your life!

Sensei Ando, A Great Thank You for your insights through your Fight For A Happy Life Medium. As a new Black Belt (San Dan) you offer to me great information and avenues of thoughts to ponder which are relevant to Life in the Martial Arts. I enjoy the way you share and reinforce that this journey is for LIFE.
With your added guidance, I will Keep Fighting For A Happy Life!

Thank you for the kind words, sir… and congratulations on your 3rd Degree!
Clearly, you have made martial arts a lifestyle as well. The bad news is there’s always more to learn. The good news is there’s always more to learn! 🙂
Hope to hear from you again! Happy training!
I promise myself to take all the time and do all the efforts I need to be able to go back and train on a tatami.
Slowly but surely.
That time already is a learning process.
The fight already began.
YES! Go, go, go! 🙂
Thanks, Ando!
