Today my family practiced our 5 applications for the Black belt grading, so I got to try out a few things that have been in my head for a while. Most of my ideas turned out to not work very well, but some of them did, which is a start. I have been thinking about what factors caused most of my ideas to fail, and the only common factor between them all is the difference between the imagination and reality. I can imagine a perfect application that takes out all the limbs at once, but I wouldn't be able to do that in reality. There are some parts of reality that seem to be lacking in the techniques that I think of, like what happens out of my sight, or the actual force required to do something. This is a bummer, because I really liked the potential that some of the techniques had. For the ideas that did actually work, they felt good when I did them, and I can't wait to expand and tune them to the point where I'm 100% confident in them.
