Mind Training Technique

Self talk, that is it. What you say to yourself and how you say it affects your body and the body's performance in all we do physically. How your mind approaches every single thing you do, say, hear, speak, listen, etc. either makes or breaks your ability to do everything and nowhere else is this evident than in the practice of karate-do.

Self talk is how you program your mind and your attitudes to achieve strength of will, strength of purpose, strength of heart and should. The words you speak to yourself can create greatness within or it can lessen you. Within us all is the capability to achieve strength and bravery, to grow, to achieve and what we say to ourselves can determine just how much and to what degree of achievement is possible.

When speaking to yourself the words and the phrases you say must be positive and reaffirming to enhance your self and the actions of the self. Your body will always follow your mind and what your mind says and believes dictates your physical actions and reactions.

Take conscious control of what you say and think from the moment you awake to the moment you sleep. Even then, before sleeps use your mind, self talk, and imagery to program your dream state to achieve positive outcomes in your dreams. Dreams influence your mental and physical stability.

How you can build and develop mind training technique is to take conscious actions in training and practice. You arrive at the facility and take a moment to meditate and build your visual and mental strategies for practice while you dress and clear out the days events. Those moments when not actually training or practicing you use your self talk to review and revise your actions in the hall and recognize those steps necessary to achieve a more positive outcome.

You use karate-do to achieve a present moment mind where positive outcomes are the norm. This is how one begins to achieve and understand the art of training the mind through mind training techniques.
