I had to think for a while about how to reply to this. Your respectful tone is adorable, though.

I apologize for not being more clear. While I am working on the physical training, I am also very interested in the mental aspect to it. I guess I just feel like I have more ground to make up on the physical end before things start balancing out. I also have no illusions of becoming a big thug. I'd just like to fill out the small frame I do have and keep my edge in balance and quickness.

I agree with your comment about having specific goals. My gut instinct is to lean toward looking at the big picture and I plan on using this training as a way to help me learn to focus attention to detail.

Right now on Tuesday afternoons I go to Judo for an hour and then to the weekly Go club meeting, so I'm getting a good three hours of physical, mental, tactical and strategic training.


In a way this sort of thing is much easier to talk about in public than it is in private, to yourself.

Don't tell me these things. This is a dream which is underripe and not yet ready for public consumption. Any time you start to talk this way just stop. Sit on stuff like this, because it is that heartbreaking desire which will propel you to excellence and by speaking of it in places like Caltrops you are leaking it out. Classes, training tips, stuff like that - that's all fine. But the very instant you start talking about "physical, mental, tactical, and strategic training" then you need to shut up quick because your slip is showing.

No hard feelings, no need to be embarassed. But I want to stop you quick fast and in a hurry from making this mistake ever again.
