A Single Technique

[neigung]

OK, for the last 100 days of my program, I decided to choose a single technique and practice it as much as possible. The only problem being, which one do I chose?
I've thought about it in these terms:
A) Choosing the one I'm most comfortable with, since it would be easier and I'd develop a better understanding of said technique.
B) Choosing the one I'm least comfortable with. I've found that by practicing a technique I find difficult to do, others come easier and I gain a measure of thinking differently.
C) Just choose one at random. This seems stupid, but it's a possible option.

Any advice?

The difficult one.

[norther practitioner]

I'd just be careful of not neglecting the rest...

[red5angel]

Yenhoi's mom is particularly afraid of the speed bag so I would concentrate on that.

[red5angel]

did I say speed bag? I meant tea bag....

[yenhoi]

You canadians and your mom jokes, eh?

[red5angel]

You canadians

LOL! Didn't I tell you I don't believe in Canadians?!

[yenhoi]

I see canadians.

[red5angel]

,,,They're everywhere. They walk around like everyone else. They don't even know that they're canadians...

[neigung]

So I should practice teabagging difficult Canadians?

Choose A and then develop variations of it.

Choose your most difficult technique..focus on it, and eventually it will become yours...that will also build more general athleticism then choosing one that is easy, and natural. Plus you will get to work through something difficult and make it natural for you, something you will repeat many times over your MA lifetime

[Laughing Cow]

Choose one that contains/expresses the most principles of your style.

In my style we got 2 movements that are considered to be like that.

One of those was used by a famous MA to defeat all his opponents.

Cheers.

D) Choosing the one that best represents your style's core principles.

In this instance, "your style" is a h o m o nym (ridiculous profanity block, it's an actual word).
