Hanmadang Saturday 13 November Last Tournament for 2010
The Factor10 "Hanmadang" Technical Tournament has always been an exciting experience for all students. The more energy focused events include timber board breaking, fly side kick and high kick with the higher level technical events of Poomse and Self defence providing students an opportunity to reach that bit further.
Factor10 members are really encouraged to participate. Mums and Dads always attend the tournament and watch their children do some incredible things, and parents often say they are surprised their children have advanced so far in their Martial Arts development.

 | Factor10 Thinking Skills Your To-Do List
|
|
| Throw Away Your To-Do List! Do you ever feel like you've been very busy achieving not much at all? Flat-out going nowhere in particular? Like a bogged car desperately trying to escape the mud? Lots of wheel-spinning, noise, effort and smoke but no actual traction? No progress? No shift? Are there times when you feel like you've got fifty balls in the air and you're about to collapse in a heap? Do you ever arrive at the end of the week (month, year, decade), only to look back and say, "What did all that effort, energy and exhaustion produce?"
If you said yes to any of the above questions, then maybe it's time to prioritise? To focus on doing a few things well rather than fifty things poorly? Less chaos, more productivity.
If you're currently like I was for a long time, then perhaps it's time for you to stop (there's a thought), be still for a moment (another thought), step back from your life (metaphorically or maybe even, literally), gain some perspective and space, make some tough but necessary decisions (the ones you've been avoiding since 1993) and commit to prioritising your responsibilities, goals, time, energy, talent and even, your relationships. That is, either cross a few things off your to-do list completely, or put them on your 'to-do-much-later' list. www.craigharper.com.au

 | Factor10 Lifestyle Eating Know What You're Eating
|
| |  | Food and Fitness Log I often have people ask me for simple tools they can use to help track what they are eating on a daily basis.
I found this great website that has a Fitness Log that you can complete. It's a very cool website - well first of all it's free and that's a great bonus - but secondly it is a great way for you to start to track exactly what you eat and know how many carbs, fats and protein you are eating and how this compares to what you should be eating based on your level of activity.
Once you start entering the food you eat you'll start to learn the sorts of foods you can go with and the ones you need to eat less of or even stay away from. Have a go and see if a self driven approach will help you.
