Don't Quit!




Here's a good story that I ran across from one of the marketing guys I know his name is Michael...

His sons were kicking the ball playing some crazy game they dreamed up in their creative little minds. (In my mind it's something like 'Calvinball!' =)

Michael was sitting watching them.


His older son, Joe yells "I Quite" and he sits down.

His arms are crossed and he said "I'm not playing because Alan cheated". (Alan is the younger one)

And Moichael says to Joe "coooommoon".

"It's just a game".

"Let's just play".

"I'll be on your team".

And Joe says...

No, I quit!

And Michael started to chant . ..

D O N ' T Q U I T . . .

D O N ' T Q U I T . . .

D O N ' T Q U I T . . .

and then a little faster.

DON'T QUIT, DON'T QUIT, DON'T QUIT . . .

Michael had both his hands balled up into fists.

His arms outreached and he was staring Joe directly in the eye..

DON'T QUIT, DON'T QUIT, DON'T QUIT. . .

Joe's arms were still crossed but I saw them start to loosen.

DON'T QUIT, DON'T QUIT, DON'T QUIT. . .

And then Michael could see him struggling to keep him self from smiling.

So, Michael started to chanted even louder.

DON'T QUIT, DON'T QUIT, DON'T QUIT, DON'T QUIT . . .

Michael was now jumping up and down with each chant.

DON'T QUIT, DON'T QUIT, DON'T QUIT, DON'T QUIT . . .

I then he held his hands out waiting for Joe to get up and run on to the field like a football team on home coming game.

DON'T QUIT, DON'T QUIT, DON'T QUIT, DON'T QUIT . . .

The pressure was too much and Joe got up and placed himself back into the game!

Joe just needed someone on his team.

Lot's of People Feel Like That!

You don't have to be a kid to want someone rooting for you. Someone who has your back. Someone who's on your team. 

I see it all of the time at my local Krav Academy and with the PeaceWalker Membership...

Lot's of middle aged folks who want help...

They want to feel safe and feel that they have power over their lives. 

Some want to get (back) in shape. Maybe shed a few pounds and firm up a bit. Have more energy...

Now's about the time that some folks are starting to lose momentum with their New Years Resolutions at the gym or Martial Arts Academy...

BUT DON'T GIVE UP!!!

DON'T QUIT!

DON'T QUIT!

DON'T QUIT!

KEEP GOING!!!


I'll Take It a Step Further...

I'm not just going just give you encouragement...

Oh no!

I'm going to give some more support if you want. 

Something to help you to Keep Going!

I've been talking about it off and on for several weeks now, but it's getting close... Real Close! =)

It's called - Over 40 -10x.

It's specifically designed for folks like you and I... 

Folks who are 40(ish) or older (I'm 51), who are either already training in or thinking about starting to learn self defense, martial arts (be it Krav Maga, BJJ, Ninjutsu, MMA, or anything else combative...).

Don't Wreck Yourself!! 

A lot of people in their 30's, 40's and 50's start working out only to constantly hurt themselves and then just quit training all together.

How many times can you keep getting hurt until it's just not worth it any more?! 

That's why I'll be sharing my lifetime of knowledge gained from training, coaching and real time application. 

When it comes to martial arts training and working out... I've been doing it my whole life.  I've taught cops to special ops. Soccer moms to high level executives. Teachers to doctors... and everyone in between!

When it comes to training... I hate seeing people struggle, get hurt or quit!

So, I decided to do something to help you! 

I'm going to be doing a FREE zoom workshop, that you can watch from the comfort of your own phone. It will show you how to:

- Train smarter. 
- Save Time w/Shorter, Yet More Effective Workouts. 
- Avoid getting hurt and if you do...
- How to recover faster. 

Probably the most important thing of all is...

How to gain an unfair advantage in the gym and in the street. 

In this livestream you'll discover how to train in a simple, smart way that will help you get the most out of your training, in the least amount of time. 

I'll share hard learned lessons on how to avoid getting injured. 

How to get more benefit and performance out of your training in any Martial Art or Self Defense System. 

I just finished editing the videos (for the full course)... so, the sites not up yet for your to reserve your spot, but if you... 


If this sounds at all interesting to you, shoot me an email and I'll get you access to this free training.

If you want in on this, let me know.  


Keep going,
~Craig

An Uncomfortable Situation

  Funny pic (and movie) about a not so funny situation… In training as in Life, it’s better to treat people with dignity and respect. However… What does that look like in the moment? Being that I’m teaching a Women’s Assault Prevention and Response Workshop this weekend - it’s probably a good time to talk about… Uncomfortable Situations Let’s talk about training at the academy for a minute… We run open co-ed classes at the local academy. What does that mean? Men and women train together, but we don’t stop there. People of different skill levels, backgrounds, ethnicities, sexual orientations, careers, religious beliefs, political affiliations, ages, injuries, pre-existing conditions, life experience, training expectations etc. etc. train together! We ALL work together! Overall, I think it’s better this way. Of course sometimes there’s static, you know, conflicts, and misunderstanding. When something happens, most of the time it’s just that, a misunderstanding… Sometimes people simply do

The Shot Heard Around the World

Even though many could see where all of this division and hatred in our country was leading to, when we witness the actual violence, realty once again floods in and has a way of shattering the comfort of our complacency, if only until the next headline. Some may find all of this shocking, others may see it simply validating their own fears. Regardless, of your political views, we have to take into account what this level of violence can do not only to the former President and his family, but what does to the state of our entire Nation. Yesterday as news broke of former President Donald Trump being shot, I can’t say that I was entirely surprised. Saddened, but not surprised. Regardless of your political stance, this act of violence is a dark reminder of the dangerous consequences of a society steeped in hate and division. Our collective heartbreak should not be about politics, but about the division and hatred that fuels this erosion of our humanity. We live in a time where traditional

Cutting Through the Static

  Me and the crew at Venue 3 Two after a PeaceWalker Conflict Communication Workshop Remember in the old days when you used to listen to the radio on a road trip? No, not digital or streaming. I’m talking about old school FM radio. When you’re putting some miles on and crossing state lines. The radio stations you listen to don’t broadcast far enough for your entire trip, so you have to channel surf to find new channels as you move on down the road. You continue to push the search button until you hear a song in the genre that you want so you can lock in a desirable station for a spell. Sometimes you’re listening to a song you really like but the station is fading… The static starts feint, almost imperceptible, than grows in intensity to the degree that you can no longer ignore it. If you really like the song, you try to hang on as long as you can, listening to the tune through the white noise and times it cuts out completely, hoping to hear as much of the song as you can before the sta
