A Kung Fu student asks his teacher, “Master, why does my ability not improve? I’m always defeated.” And the master, pensive and forever patient, answers …

“My dear pupil, have you seen the gulls flying by the setting sun and their wings seeming like flames?”

“Yes, my master, I have.”

“And a waterfall, spilling mightily over the stones without taking anything out of its proper place?”

“Yes, my master, I have witnessed it.”

“And the moon, when it touches the calm water to reflect all its enormous beauty?”

“Yes, my master, I have also seen this marvellous phenomenon.”

“That is the problem. You keep watching all this s*** instead of training.”
