For our Black Belt students we offer a unique program called “”Lessons in Mastery.” The concept is simple. What is a master? How do masters think? What is the path to mastery?
A Master is somebody who perceives themselves and the world around them in a very specific way. It doesn’t matter what somebody is a master of, what is relevant is what they had to do to get there and what they do to stay.
One of the assignments for our students on this quest is to interview a master of something in an effort to figure out what makes them tick. Here is the assignment.
