The Kyusho Jitsu Mindset the Art of an Open Mind

Kyusho Jitsu Mindset

What is the Kyusho Jitsu Mindset?  Well it tends to be very, very different from the mindset of the average martial artist.

 Especially in today's world. Martial Arts study is supposed to be a journey of not just physical movement but true understanding of the mind, body and spirit.

Today it is more about how much money you can win in the MMA/UFC circuits, how famous you can become and who's face you can punch in.

Sadly in much of the martial arts world today ego rules! But for the real martial arts students, and we are all students regardless of rank, it is about learning, developing and a strong code of ethics. 

So what is a Kyusho Jitsu Mindset?

The Kyusho Jitsu Mindset - Learning

The first part of this mindset is being eager to learn! Now I see a lot of this at first in the study. But over time this can dwindle off. Do people lack motivation these days?

Yes that is certainly part of it! Also many students want an instant result, without putting in the time and effort. Sorry life does not work like that! It never has! And no matter who says the opposite, they are just plain wrong.

There can never be a world with equality of outcome. All that idea does is promote laziness, shiftlessness and a broken society. So put that garbage from your head!  It is a lie told to you by the corrupt! [Politicians]

Life needs to have meaning, and meaning comes from getting off your butt and doing something.

OK, now it is well known that Kyusho Jitsu in already present, or part of every traditional martial arts system. It was just excluded from the teaching of many of the masters of old! The reason can be many! Perhaps it is because of WWII, or even that the Asian cultures just never liked the behavior of the Western Martial Arts mentality.

Kyusho Jitsu Mindset - Self Development

Martial arts training and Kyusho Jitsu study is a journey of the "self." It is the most selfish of endeavors! Now also as part of learning, self development requires you put your ego aside, admit you don't do not know anything about anything, and open your mind for learning! Without that you will fail, and you will fail at just about every aspect of life too! 

"The only true wisdom is know you know nothing." Socrates

Kyusho Jitsu Mindset - Ethics

Next we must all have a code to live by. Grand Master Joon Rhee was famous for saying that "martial arts without a code of ethics is brutality." And this is another GREAT truth!

The Tenets of My Dojo

  • I develop myself physically and mentally based on the martial art spirit.
  • And I will only fight to protect my life and the lives of others.
  • Also, I achieve my fullest potential in developing knowledge honesty and strength.

There cannot be a mindset of "trolling" like we see so often! The Bullshido people make me think of this! I know many martial artists love there work, but why?

Do you really need some group to tell you how to think? And that is what they are trying to do! They are an insult to the intelligence of every martial artist in the world. There mission is to show you how much they "think" they know, and how stupid you are and that YOU need them!

"This is "bull" that is "fake" and we know because this is our opinion!"

Do you see a problem with this alleged way of thinking? I don't need any group of self appointed experts in ANY field in life who think it is their job to ridicule what people do, or tell them what to think!

This is a major reason society is the mess it is! Media like Facebook and CNN telling people what their opinions and thoughts should be! Pathetic really. Whenever I see this kink of behavior I know the company in question lacks "ethics". Facebook is a prime example as now the truth of what they are doing is coming out. Yet they, and CNN are 2 of the best finger pointers in the industry!
