Cold Calling - Your First Lesson in Warrior Training |
I've studied Zen, Eastern philosophy, and the martial arts for many years. But some of the best lessons in warriorship come from cold calling. Carlos Castaneda says warrior training should: "Start with a single act that has to be deliberate, precise, and sustained. If that act is repeated long enough, one acquires a sense of unbending INTENT, which can be applied to anything else. If that is accomplished the road is clear. One thing will lead to another until the warrior realizes his full potential." If you take a phone call as your "single act," and you repeat it, you'll perfect it, and you'll succeed. Sticking with this act, you develop "unbending intent."
