This blog is created to honour the end of my Nationals Inter-School Canoe Championship 2009 and the end of a Canoeist Career in Junior College. The 1st few post will be dedicated towards the setting up of this blog and will convey my thoughts and feeling over the 4 days event to honour the Sports which I really believe in, fought for, bleed for and gave my life to.
No limitation, no boundaries

I thought of this story.

There is this martial art expert, Kenji. He masters his craft to the highest standard, to the point where he need not think when he executes his move. This progresses him up in the ladder of attrition, of competition. When he finally come across this round, this enemy name Raj can successfully counter all his move and eventually defeated Kenji. After the match, Raj asked Kenji

Raj: Did you even try to win me in that match?
Kenji: Of course, you can countered all my moves, you are definitely better than me
Raj: No you didn't. Your moves are all fixed, I was expecting the next set of moves but sadly...
Kenji: Really? I mastered this style to the highest. I can execute them naturally, so it seemed like I'm not trying?
Raj: Is that so? Then I guess that's not the highest level. It's just that you became so acquainted with your style then you failed to realize anything beyond.

I haven't found a way to remodel this story so that the morale become more apparent but. It means that when we think we have the best way to do something and become complacent with it, we will eventually lose our potential to improve. In academics, you thought you're best in maths, and you've probably mastered it. When a question beats the hell out of you, you'll say you're probably not intelligent enough. Hmmm. In quotation, the only limitation in life is no limitation.In lyrics, there's no boundaries. In short, there's always improvement : )
