(Chinese martial art supplies) Kata Is Like A Textbook

Judging by some articles practitioners of the martial arts are beginning to seriously look at their arts and asking the question - is what I am being taught really self-defence or just an oriental art form? What’s more, they’re asking why you do this and that technique. Rather than just following blindly from one technique to another because someone tells them its so.
What’s On Your “Grappling Blame Wheel?”
Are you familiar with the term, “The Blame Wheel?” It’s a business term that describes how people to create a blame association pattern to rationalize and justify poor performance and failing to achieve objectives and goals. And if you need a visual description of the Blame Wheel and how it works, think about the big spinning wheel that they use on the game show, “Wheel of Fortune”, that has dollar amounts around the wheel and contestants spin the wheel to determine what dollar amounts each letter will have. Well, if we modify that wheel so that it becomes a “Grappling Blame Wheel” and replaced the dollar amounts with reasons (or excuses) why a grappler underachieves, we can see why so many grapplers never get beyond being average on the mat and life in general.
