A seasoned martial artist does not fear being hit.
They accept it as part of the training.
Inexperienced students flinch away from being hit or refuse to play the attacker earnestly.
This indicates fear.
Sincerity requires commitment.
If you are not willing to face your fears, they will overwhelm you.
Being hit or thrown to the floor will never feel nice. It is not supposed to feel good.
However, when it is all said and done all you will suffer is a few bumps and bruises.
And all that worry, anxiety and doubt will only have served to hold you back and slow down your progress.
