Last night the punch took me to the ground, but I’m pushing myself to stand again. It isn’t easy watching in real time an event come crashing to the ground, but that doesn’t mean I will not lift myself. I will learn from what occurred and prepare my mind for not only a better offense but also a better defense, as failure can bring one crashing to the ground. Maybe I will have to train with others who have been in the ring before I take a jump forward, or could I need an amateur event to build my confidence again? I’m not sure, but at least for now, I don’t hear the 10 count before I stand up.
