LIFE SKILLS
Courtesy
the showing of politeness in one's attitude and behavior toward others.
Courtesy, which is meant to be courteous to everyone who is in a dojang (school or training part) along with folks you might run into in places other than the formal area of Taekwondo training. It also includes showing the proper manners all the time.
What does the word “courtesy” mean? Basically, this means to be nice to everyone. But, this goes farther, as it additionally denotes you should respect other people. What that means is you ought to treat everyone the same way you wish you would be treated. In other words, the Golden Rule is the best policy to follow.
That means you’d wish for people to respect you and be nice to you. Therefore, you ought to also respect and be nice to other people, otherwise they won’t want to treat you the same way.
For children learning TaeKwonDo, that all may not mean a lot at the beginning, so it is better if one is shown what courtesy actually means via some examples.
Underneath are a few examples which show being courteous which help to strengthen this perception.
⦁ Opening doors for others
⦁ Aiding people in picking up something they dropped
⦁ Aiding your mother around your home
⦁ Telling a person “thank you” whenever they do a nice thing for you
⦁ Using “ma’am or “sir” whenever you talk to older people
⦁ If riding a bus, be sure to give your seat to someone older or if there is a person who is unable to stand for a long time
Express gratitude. With power words like Please and Thank you
Take turns and share with others
Be considerate of others’ feelings, Seek to understand first then be understood
Integrity
the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness.
Integrity is doing the right thing even when it's hard or when no one is looking. Many people only do what they are supposed to because they know that an authority figure is watching. If someone is watching them, then they do what they are supposed to only because they don't want to get in trouble.
To do whatever is right ethically. Showing honesty as well as having robust moral values is the most important thing, as well as trying hard to keep from being corrupted when incorporating the most vital characteristics of the principle of integrity.
Integrity may also denote a lot of different things for different folks since there’s not merely one basic definition for integrity where someone can figure out the difference between wrong and right, however, it’s likewise able to denote the ability to assert what’s right ethically.
Showing honesty as well as holding onto robust moral values is very important for practicing Martial Arts. You must also work hard to be honorable. Both these are vital characteristics to attain whilst learning this type of martial art. An example of a definition I love to use iis being able to be honest as well as have moral values.
For instance, if one of your children asks you if they can play their computer game, then you in turn ask if they’ve finished cleaning their room yet or if they took out the trash, they in turn ought to answer honestly via telling you yes or no.
Here’s several other cases to show explain this idea better:
⦁ Don’t break a promise even if this means taking some additional effort.
⦁ If you accidentally didn’t pay for an item in your cart, return to the store and give them the money.
⦁ Don’t ever betray your Friends' trust no matter if this causes you problems.
⦁ Tell the store worker they gave you back too much money.
Integrity is vital in every part of your life as well as being a huge part of having good manners and conduct. Therefore, be certain you’re setting a good example for your friends and loved ones.
Do what you say you’ll do.
Always Keep your promises
Be loyal to your friends Stand up for what you believe in
Perseverance
merely denotes the Tae Kwon do pupil’s intent to keep working despite the odds to meet their objective. That goes for not merely the student’s Tae Kwon Do classes, but should also happen with every feature of their life.
Perseverance is the drive which aids one in remaining on course even whenever they wish to stop. When it comes to Tae Kwon Do, how does perseverance fit in? It denotes that you do the little things such as stretching a bit farther outward than you may have done the last class, i.e. touching your toes instead of only your knees.
It denotes attending class, despite the fact it may be simpler not to go, especially if it’s really cold outside or possibly extremely hot outside.
Perseverance in regard to Tae Kwon Do is that one remains in training, no matter if it is a good time or a bad time, or even if one gets bored, or can’t think of a good reason for continuing, or whenever one doesn’t understand a form or technique.
It means be patient and keep going, understanding you’re still gaining ability, despite you may not notice it.
A few other cases showing Perseverance are:
⦁ A swimmer practices every day during the week so they’re prepared to win a tournament.
⦁ The 4 year old child who always gets back on their bicycle despite the fact they often fall right off again.
⦁ Players who keep practicing soccer until it gets dark outside so they may get better at something new.
⦁ Someone who keeps creating posters to put up that tell people to prevent bullies from hurting others even if someone is always tearing these down.
We can only attain as well as hone our skills via using perseverance. The old saying says, “If at first you do not succeed, then keep trying.”
Try your best.
Self Control
denotes being able to control what you’re thinking as well as what you are doing. Keeping your mind as well as your body pure via controlling your feelings, especially if you are facing an extremely hard or trying situation.
You can define self-Control as: Being able to operate in today’s world without running out of patience or showing anger or a bad temper to someone else.
Self-control, just the same as any other kind of positive characteristic, can’t be learned in just a few days. It also can’t be attained just by studying a martial art.
To be able to control one’s actions and self, they additionally have to have the proper motivation. They must feel the necessity for controlling themselves deep inside.
In regards to Tae Kwon Do, having self-control may appear fairly self-explanatory, however, it is essentially being able to keep control of yourself whenever participating in training or sparring.
Several cases of having self-control which can be seen in everyday life are:
⦁ Whenever we do not reply to someone prompting us about something that’s for their own good
⦁ Whenever you’re about to lose your calm, cool disposition, yet are able to stay silent
⦁ Focusing on your own life as well as the way you ought to lead it, as well as knowing what you wish from your life instead of seeing the things other people wish from your life
Self-control happens whenever we respect each other. Via knowing how important being respectful of everyone is, we won’t fail in gaining more self-control.
I believe the famous Chinese think philosopher Lao Tzu summarized best just how important self-control is whenever he said:
“the word ‘stronger’ denotes someone who wins over themselves instead of another person
Indomitable Spirit is hard to explain, however, normally it denotes being courageous enough to defend your own beliefs as well as remaining strong in your convictions and beliefs despite any odds not in your favor. Additionally it denotes unswervingly showing a total one hundred percent effort in everything one does in the dojang (training zone) as well as in their life.
A definition I enjoy using to explain the Indomitable Spirit is that you don’t give in whenever something doesn’t go in your favor, along with applying your will to overcome failing. Someone might not be successful the very first try at something you are attempting to do in either martial arts , or in their life.
A pupil who shows indomitable spirit is confident and courageous enough to attempt something again, plus they don’t get overcome or subdued even if they could be fearful or fail in their attempt to do something.
It’s seen whenever a brave person, along with their values, faces devastating odds against them.
A fantastic example of having an indomitable spirit can be seen regarding Thomas Edison.. who invented the lightbulb.
Were you aware Edison failed over ten thousand times (I’m still shocked the number is that high) prior to creating light bulbs? I think that truly shows he is a great example of someone with perseverance.
There’s a lot of additional cases you can find which include remaining true to your own beliefs despite any hardship, as well as in setting and attaining challenging objectives, and seeking out positive instead of negative in all you do.
Thus, you ought to question yourself, and ask, in what way can I attain an Indomitable Spirit? Do you let your spirit get broken or instead keep on going despite it all appearing to not be in your favor.
You could fail seven times, however, you ought to remember that you could get right back up. If you are a serious Martial arts pupil you will be able to handle belligerent without a bit of hesitation or fear, no matter who or whatever that amount might be
