PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH

A woman qued for hours with her young son to see the great Ghandi, when she eventually got to see him she said,
"sir I am worried about my five year old son he wont stop eating sugar and is getting very fat"
Ghandi looked at her and paused for a while before saying, "bring your son back here in three weeks time"
The woman was a little annoyed to say the least but trusted that Ghandi knew best so off she went.
Three weeks later she qued to see Ghandi again. After several hours she eventually ended up before Ghandi. "Sir I came to see you three weeks ago about my son, who keeps eating to much sugar"
Ghandi told her to bring her son forward. When the boy stood in front of him he looked him straight in the eye and said quite sternly "stop eating sugar" and then turned a way.
The woman was really annoyed now and said "Ive waited all this time and been here twice for you to just turn around and tell him to stop eating sugar. Why didn't you just say that three weeks ago?"
Ghandi replied "madam three weeks ago I to was eating sugar"

I love this story because it really brings home to me the fact that we should practice what we preach and I wonder how many of us do that.

The real combat system is going really well, we are getting more and more subscribers to our news letter. The training days and first gradings have been a great success. The next training day is on the 20Th February and the next grading is on the 13Th March.
I would highly recommend the training days as everyone who has attended them has said how good they are. There is no ego allowed and they are a day for personal growth.
I think sometimes in life it is hard to keep pushing yourself but perseverance pays great dividends. Patience is a bitter plant that bears a sweet fruit.

Until next time God Bless and keep persevering.
