16. The sifu is in the mood to teach
There are times when a sifu is busy with other priorities in life. This means that they may not have a choice to be able to teach, or the pressures in life don't leave time or give them the motivation to teach. For example, I was teaching a few years back because SIfu Greg wanted me to teach. Now that I have a young family, there really isn't much time for me to teach, so that is why I write these posts to help out the community.
17. You want to be the best
If you are going to be the best, you have to want it. Now this doesn't mean you have to be the world number one like a Connor McGregor in UFC, but it sure does help if you want to get there. A more practical understanding is you want to be better than the person you are today.
18. Loyalty to Wing Chun Qi Gong
If you are learning different martial arts or going to different teachers, then you're not showing your loyalty to the sifu. It is best to take the time to learn from one teacher at a time. If it is not working out, then move on. If it is working out, then master what is in front of you. Once you have demonstrated loyalty and mastering that one thing, then feel free to broaden your horizon.
19. You must have confidence in Wing Chun and the sifu
If you don't have confidence in the art or the teacher then there is nothing to gain.
20. You must practice regularly
If you only practice at class once a week then you'll never be any good. You need to set aside some time to try and practice every day if you want to be the best.
