 Your safety is going to be more jeopardized by the current unrest in our country. In New York City, shootings have gone up 300%. Robbery, 250%. Assaults, 180%. Learning martial arts is a great way to protect yourself from the chaos that is going to worsen every day.ter being forced to shut down, we have attempted to formulate an opening strategy, eight times. Each time the state moved the reopening date. However it does seem like a solution now is eminent. We plan to reopen on 07.06.20. If we have your Email you will receive a new schedule. If not, Email us to with your Address and we will send you a schedule. Thank you. Stay tuned. Updates will be made daily. See you soon. Master Abruzzi

03.30.20  9:30am. This message was delayed until the federal government’s  release of the current business guidelines for the USA., allowing us to make a proper, relevant,  announcement. Our leaders now declare an extension of the  shutdown to the end of April. In compliance, we will remain closed until then. We are attempting to establish online teaching, as soon as possible. Many parents have been connecting me for advice.  We are offering a telephone  counseling session to help you deal with:  anxiety, stress., loneliness, fear, family disputes, lack of focus, self reliance and family learning and activities. Any GTK member and their families are welcome to call me for assistance. We are here for you, as always. Stay strong. Be safe. May good health and a happy future be yours. 











 Golden Tiger Karate is being forced to  close, by all government agencies: Federal, State and Local until March 31, 2020. I  will be posting daily updates, starting today. Please revisit each day  to receive different ‘ TIGER LIFE DEFENSE TIPS”. This information will not be found elsewhere, because it 
is based on my long defensive teaching and survival experience.I will post here and on Facebook at ‘Michael V. Abruzzi’. Feel free to share this with anyone who could benefit from the information. First tip will be posted later today.

                                   

                    
 Your greatest challenge is not just to always win but rather, simply to get a little better everyday in all the important dynamics of your life, including, your: finances, vocation, relationships, education, completion of tasks, emotions, eliminating procrastination, developing new skills, public speaking, parenting and leading a healthy life style. The most wasted of all days is one without laughter.

Your effort and action defines your destination on the path of life. In the deepest of sorrow, a  person’s true character is displayed, to the world. What could be more  tragic then the murder of nine innocent, God loving church goers, this week. What was the response from the families of these victims? Forgiveness, the ultimate gift of love toward another.  Without forgiveness you can never be whole, at any level. Carrying a grudge is like sandpaper on your soul.   Let your ego and anger move aside. Learn from this. If these relatives can forgive this horrific act, how much better would your life be to offer forgiveness to those close to you. Everything you desire is one step away, but only if you take the first one.  Please enjoy learn and share.

I spent my entire adult life studying nature....that is human nature.  You don’t really understand human nature until you comprehend why a child on a merry-go-round will wave at his parents every time around and why his parents will always wave back.

Please Enjoy, Learn and Share. Go green to stop diabetes with the leafy stuff. If you eat 1 ½ cups of spinach, bok choy, kale, or any dark green leafy vegetables you reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes by 14%. Raw or steamed. Double the amount, and double the risk prevention. You also receive a triple benefit  of:  antioxidants, (cancer fighters) reduced joint inflamation with the magnesium content, and loads of alpha linoleic acid, a fatty acid that cuts insulin resistance.

Please Take, ‘2 Minutes To Change Your Life.’ Enjoy, learn, and share. Past, present, and future are not continuous, unless you force continuity on them, with your thinking. You can perceive them as continuous and make them so, to gather evidence for your present position. But do not be deceived and then believe that this is how it is. You should always learn from the past, and live in the present. However your thinking needs to be  focused on your future, to bring you superior heath, happiness, success and prosperity. Embrace every opportunity presented to you. Change your direction to change your life...forever.

Happy Valentines Day to all the beautiful, intelligent, caring  women I have the privilege to know. Especially the Moms. Love does not die a natural death. Rather love  is killed by betrayal, dishonesty, lust, jealously, control, abuse, lack of direction, initiative, respect and understanding. Love once lost can never fully be fully found, with the same person. Think before you act.

How did it feel to have your ability to freely travel throughout the state restricted, for no real reason? The federal meteorological agency apologized...how nice. Most radio and TV stations had their  programs extend through the night to continually discuss the non historical snow storm. 
	Computer models are designed by their originators to be used as guidance, NOT FOR FORECASTING.  Three models are predominately used: American, Canadian and Greek/European.  All the excuses cannot out-weigh the monetary losses and personal inconveniences that had to be endured by the residents and businesses. This junk science is simply used to gather prove of an agenda they have a need to propagate.   Remember that models are also used to preach the global warming theory and anti- fracking agendas. Think about this method of proof of false data. Make your own decisions.

You can’t control the world around you, only your reaction to it. Stress is related to 85 % of the disease which you contract. As an example, if you can say, “My job is killing me,” fix it or get out.  Job, marriage, relationships, business et al, stress is always dangerous without any regard ti its source. If you remain, who is to blame?

Want change in your life? Every person you interact with can be described by one of three  characteristics. 1. Draining   2. Neutral 3. Replenishing.   Three words not needing explanation.  Which personality type would be best to spend your time and energy with? 

06.25.14
When you try to control everything, you will enjoy nothing. Relax, breathe, let go and simply live. You can’t control the world around you. But you have absolute control of your reaction to all that is occurring. 

Every second of every day is a journey for you. This journey is marked by way points, side roads, unexpected obstacles, detours but  all leading toward  your ultimate goal-a destination, an end point, a landing spot. The totality of it is an adventure, called your life.    

Do you want to help your children to be prepared for their future? Why waste the summer? Study together. Learning is important 365 days a year. Teach by example. Remember, if you have a weak mind, you’re going to need a strong  back.
