    You never climax as a Martial Artist.

    speak for yourself bub. I plan on it a couple of times this evening as a matter of fact.

    Thanks for the advice. Im not at all worried about my teacher. He will be able to take me a very long way. Its not that I cant clear my mind, just sometimes I cant. I am trying to figure out how to switch over at any point in time.

    your instructor should help you get over your platue. once you hit it, you wont notice your ability improving a lot very quickly like it did in the begining. take on more advance things but in smaller easy to manage ways to acoomplish and you will be on our way.

    I think I will try that along with the visualization and self pep talks.

    Thanks.

    visualization helps. dont want to do too much self pep talks cause then you'll always be pepping yourself up. i had a problem when my sifu moved his school to a new location and made the training easier for the area. i had to push myself even harder to feel good when i came out of a class. but good luck man. theres this one book on teaching martial arts by a korean TKD teacher. and it can be used for kung fu too, but there is a page or two about the platue's for students. and that's what i said basically to you is new things that are hard but take it in small steps.
