Personal essay by Jean Yu (05-10-1997)

 

            Throughout my life, it seems I have been alternately afflicted and blessed.  As a student of Tae Kwon Do, I have struggled under the watchful eye of my instructor and under the expectations of being the instructor's daughter.  However, more importantly, I have been blessed – endowed with an innate discipline that comes from Grandmaster Yu's roots.  Through training, I have developed that discipline, which has allowed me to accomplish my goals both on and off the mat.

          What began, for a five-year old, as an exercise regimen, a memorization of movements, techniques, and terminology, has developed into a journey of personal development.  No other sport could have instilled in me more self-respect, respect for seniors, and obedience to teachers and parents.  I have seen my family relationships to have always thrived because of the respect I have been taught.

          I have seen, as well, a better preparation, mentally, in my endeavors outside of martial arts.  In school, I was able to take on large responsibilities and make the most of my studies because I had learned discipline and perseverance.  Certainly determination and respect for authority play bigger roles in one's academic success than mere numbers.

          The biggest influence martial arts have had on my life has been its tenant of integrity.  Strength of character is the foundation of the ancient philosophy, “Myong shim bo gam,” and in “do,” way of life.  Without integrity, I would not be where I am today nor would have fulfilled all that I wanted to accomplish.  My years of Tae Kwon Do set the foundation for my personal growth in all aspects of life.  Its effect has been immeasurable
