Master Po was very critical.
It is difficult to not be pessimistic, when you are eternally correct.
Of all my time atop Wudan, I struggle to think of a conversation that took place without him correcting someone, or something.
Po had a particular dislike for dreams, which always confused myself and the other adepts.
Each morning he would line us up, and force us to tell him what we dreamt of the night before.
He would often interrupt loudly and visibly angry.
On this particular morning he started with me.
He pointed, and I began to speak.
“In my dream, I saw three trees. Each different colors. You were there and ordered me to climb the red one, but when I approached it, it became blue...”
I began.
He interrupted me. “Inaccurate and imprecise!” he screamed.
He struck me hard in the face before pointing at the next adept.
This reprimand was particularly upsetting, as his accurate insults left me in a difficult position.
I struggle to think of any dream, had by anyone, which was neither inaccurate or imprecise.
The following morning he once again pointed at me to recite my dream.
Surrendering to further beating, I began to speak exactly as before. “Last night, I dreamt I was on a cloud, high atop the temple.
It was early morning, and as all of the other students stood exercising, I sat atop this cloud and simply watched.”
Po’s expression did not change.
“So you dream of mastery?” He ushered me over to the exercise floor. “Only practice breeds mastery, not dreams.”
I walked over, and began my forms. Atop Wudan we had 7 basic forms, a demonstration of the 7 Wudan styles. Po stood and watched me without moving.
A few hours later, after reciting every form, I looked over to Po for instruction, but he did not move or speak.
Unsure what to do, I simply started again.
Hours passed. The Sun faded and the day finished.
The darkness came and went. I had practiced all throughout the night and was well into the afternoon of the following day.
Po was still standing in the exact same position, even the wind which shook the trees did not dare ruffle the fabric of his robe.
He was perfect stillness. Resisting exhaustion, I continued to train. Until deep in the next night I heard Po shout: “Enough!”
I had not had a moment’s rest for two days. Not a sip of water. Reciting forms in the summer sun had left my mouth so dry I was unable to speak.
The only force which kept me going was the fear of Po’s punishment for stopping before I was told. I drank a large cup of water and went straight to bed, I slept a full 3 hours before the 5 am wakeup call.
It felt as if only a minute had passed.
I was so tired, I remember only darkness. As we stood in a line, PO once again pointed at me to begin reciting the story of my dreams from the night before.
For the first time since my ascent to Wudan, I had not dreamed anything.
“I did not dream last night, I was so tired. I don’t remember anything but black,” I said to Po.
He didn’t reply. Simply pointed at the next adept.
Such is the way of Wudan.

"Goals are worked towards.
Action.
Movement.
Energy spent.
That’s the difference between you and me.
I ALWAYS HAD GOALS.
You still have wishes. "

"I avoid poor people at all costs.
Stab you?
Steal from you?
Sell you out?
Jealous of you?
Broke people moves.
They’re also stupid and lazy with nothing interesting to say.
I was broke and became rich. Every valuable broke person did the same.
Still broke? Worthless."

Arrogance has replaced competence amongst leadership.
Jealousy has replaced inspiration amongst the slaves.

You aren't grateful enough for what you have.
I have donated 100s of THOUSANDS of meals to starving people all over the world.
I can tell you, with certainty.
You do not appreciate your last meal as much as they did.
If I were to swap your places with a starving man,
His first thought would be relief,
His second would be PANIC.
He would do ANYTHING to guarantee he doesn't end up starving again.
He knows INTIMATELY how bad it can possibly get,
He would work harder than you do at your work,
Fueled by an indiscernible mix of fear and gratitude.
You are not truly grateful for your blessings when you have no fear of losing them.
I remind you today to be grateful for what you have,
Your family, your job, your home, your health, the food on your plate.
At any moment, they could be SNATCHED from you,
never to be returned.
If you were truly grateful for what you had,
You'd never lack motivation to try hard
ever again.
The Purge Begins.
Tomorrow.

Your future is the result of your daily actions.
You’re defined by what you do today.
Lazy now, loser later.

"Two things will make you a cold bastard.
Professional fighting.
And Chess.
In these two realms, there is no luck.
There is no teammate to save you.
There is a brutal reality of struggle.
Struggle to train. Struggle to survive.
If you fuck up you pay with your life."
