First week

Our first week is completed. Got some awesome students and maintaining a steady state of learning. I have been thoroughly enjoying teaching and introducing the art of Tae Kwon Do to new students. It's hard work but its the kind of hard work that gives lasting benefits. Only took 35 years to find my true joy in work, now that I'm not eligible to fly the space shuttle to Mars. Master Knight has been patient and extremely helpful and simply awesome as I get the hang of running a martial arts business. It's going to be a long road, but I am confident we will establish a school that can live up to the King Tiger name. Now if I can only get my butt in gear with requirements. I'm starting to idle a bit, but as the GI Joe cartoons always said, "Knowing is half the battle." So, I will need to establish some new goals this week to get my focus back. Sometimes hitting a wall is just an opportunity of finding a door. Uh, did you see what I did there? A new quote for the Great Hall of Foster. It's a pretty short hallway really.
