Motion = Opportunity

Judo is a martial art
about sensing an other's balance
and controlling it.

This takes sensitivity
and the ability to act decisively.

When a person moves
they use imbalance to do so.

The moment of imbalance
can be extremely short
and is the moment in which
action to control that balance
is most effective.

If we are sensitive enough to recognize that moment
and nimble enough to act while it is occurring
we can experience far greater results
with far less effort
than with actions taken at any other time.

Look for motion
it signals imbalance
and an opportunity to control outcome.

And act
with timeliness
and decisiveness.

The Earth Only Spins Forward

When thoughts of regret or nostalgia present themselves,
take example from the planet on which we reside
and spin forward.
