  The “I Can Do It” Attitude, Surrey and Delta Martial Arts schools Can Provide!   In life, an incredible superpower is the idea that one’s life is destined for greatness!   As a new immigrant to Canada more than 50 yrs ago, I had everything going against me.   I had to learn French, English, Italian, and Korean; all at the same time.   I was born with bad vision and serious coordination challenges.   Do you think this stopped me?! NO!   My parents raised me with incredible discipline and focus.   This in turn, gave me a heart that quitting never was an option!   Excellence comes to those who battle challenges and overcome!   Applying discipline drove me to be more than who I was yesterday.   Step by step, skill sets resulted.   Multiple languages were learned, academics increased, physical skills improved.   Today, we do a great disservice to our kids if we coddle them and try to protect them too much.   My gen...
