“It's not enough to shelve your own competitive streak. You have to try, consciously, to help others succeed. Some people feel this is like shooting themselves in the foot - why aid someone else in creating a competitive advantage? I don't look at it that way. Helping someone else look good doesn't make me look worse. In fact, it often improves my own performance, particularly in stressful situations.” PeopleWayFeelsTryingLooksEnoughFactsHelpingMy OwnSituationFeetSucceedCreatingAdvantagePerformancesCompetitionAidsHelping OthersShootingStressfulStreaksCompetitive AdvantageHelping SomeoneStressful Situations Author:Chris Hadfield
“I think the kicks in Wing Chun are enough. It´s much easier to use your hands than to use your feet. Your hand is able to reach your opponent long before your foot. Why take the long way to attack (circle), when there is a much more direct method of attack? If you are using your hands, then your opponent can´t see a kick coming if you have to use it. When you teach Kung Fu, you can fool a lot of people, but not yourself. You can make like a movie and do many complicated movements and kicks, but you only fool yourself as to whether that would work in a real situation of life and death.” PeopleIfsThinkingWayLongRealEnoughUseHandsAbleSituationTeachFeetMovementFoolEasierDirectMethodWingsComplicatedCirclesOpponentsKicksLife And DeathLong WayKung FuWing Chun Author:Wong Shun Leung

“A leader is someone you are not disappointed in placing trust in. When that person makes suggestions, you are inclined to trust [them]. Often it is people who have been there [in a similar situation to the people he or she is leading]. They would generally be people who are ready to take the risks themselves. Most leaders would be people who don't ever give commands and remain at home and let the foot soldiers be the ones who bear the brunt.” PeopleGivingPersonsHas BeensHomeWould BeSituationLeaderRiskFeetReadyBearsSoldierCommandDisappointedSuggestions Author:Desmond Tutu
