However, with this opportunity in front of me, one which some might consider to be fate, it was not one that I was going to let pass and I grasped it with both hands and can say with conviction that I have not looked back since. This is an important message that I would pass to anyone, not just in the context of martial arts or qigong but with anything that represents a real interest to you, because devoting the time can truly change your life for the better.
