Howie remembers where he was the day Bruce Lee died. He also remembers seeing his first live cage fight and being a referee in the ring for the first time like it was yesterday.
For Howie, fighting is not about violence. It’s about control, discipline and strength; learning your body’s limits and pushing past them. It’s about getting into the ring with someone better than you, putting your ego aside, and learning to re-train your brain so that you come out on top.
At TEDxDunedin, Howie shares his perspectives from the other side of the cage on how fighting can solve problems.
Connecting with a personal story... Growing up... Watching movies...
A glimpse inside the ring / cage... What would I do in there? Asking a personal question...
Asking the questions... Curiosity...
What happens when you panic? When you are empty?
If you hink you're in trouble you are...
Stop listening to ego...
Learn the lessons...
Natural instincts will betray you...
Over rule the flight mode...
Retrain to do the right thing....
Turn and face at all times.... Do we do this? Do we face our demons?
Training physical and mental... Train to know your body...
Learn to control the emotion... Mental and emotional resilience!
If you can't control your emotions nothing will save you!
Understanding and appreciation is sooo necessary!
You win or you learn!
Becoming better people through whatever you do!,,,
Respect and honour for each other... Lessons for us all here from Howie...
It's not the critic that counts, the credit belongs to he who strives... The doer of deeds... All glory goes to the fighter!
Knowing self through pursuing what you believe in....
Mechanical, physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional...
