Goals are the lighthouses of our ambition, guiding our daily actions so that we move towards achieving our ultimate life purposes. Goals are the building blocks that we can use to build our purpose in life.

Growth is integral to success. Without growth, stagnation quickly sets in, and we slide backwards and regress. People, organizations, and even societies and cultures must continue growing, or risk losing their identity.

To have a purpose for living is the true measure of a satisfied and rich life; rather than striving for happiness, strive for purpose. If any one concept is the secret to happiness and success, this is it.

Reality is not a simple exercise in collecting all the information we need, and then making perfect decisions. Rather, we must refine our ability to make decisions based on incomplete information. As leaders, karateka are called upon to make those decisions, even when the path ahead isn't clear.
