Hello everyone. Sometime in the future I plan on writing a master thesis about how to train in all factors of martial arts that play a part in fighting and every day activities. I don't think I got everything though. I'd like you all to take a look at this list (that took me two weeks to compile) and see if I'm missing anything.

What University are you at BB?

Things like "thoughtlessness", "strategies" and "tactics" seem to already encompass things like analysis, application, concentration, insight, memorization and unpredictability.

What I just thought was that if I use one word for all of those words, I risk not breaking them down to their lowest and most basic level and I also forsee a risk of making one seem more important than the other.

That's just what came to my head now.

Although I suppose I could put subcategories like I did with arms and legs. I should probably just do more research on the mental rhelm. I should review the books I have and look at the one that KarateEd mentioned.

Well, I think that one would use an analysis to come up with a strategy or a tactic. However, one would usually train his tactics before going into the fight. So, you could make a case for it in that way.

I recently did my thesis on martial arts as well...I must say it is nice having it done but I wouldn't want to write it again :lol:

What subject/major are you writing this for?

Miso No Kore, it is best put as that you should not retain anything, in your mind, but that your body just retain it so that you do not have to react, only act.

It sounds like it should go under mental, but it has nothing to do with the mind, because you have to shut the mind off, and it is the vigor that the martial arts gives you that allows you to do so...some Karate-ka say it has to do with Ki, or Chi, and other say that it is only something some people can do, which is it? I have no clue, I prefer to believe that it is spiritual, and it is one of the things that we must obtain before we become "Bushi"

I'm at a local community college. I'm just doing this because I like writing and called it a thesis because it's going to be freaking thick when I'm done with it :lol: My bad.

Just to kill everyone's curiosity, I major in film and theatre.

I see. Then it shall be added.

I see. In more simple terms it's just a state of clear mindedness?

Then it will be added. Now that I think about it, it's kind of oblivious of me to miss that one.
