"Have you left your umbrella and shoes out of the way?" He asks.

Yes, once you have received your reply, he asks again: "If you do not have the right, will you leave the left?"

The student says he does not remember.

"Mastery is aware of everything, and if you do not forget to sharpen a samurai every day, and if the woodcutter goes out of the house and the children can not reach it, you will master the same thing, but not now, because someone who has forgotten to give flowers to your loved ones will eventually be abandoned."

The student could not master if he had not practiced all the techniques he understood, even if he could understand it at that moment.

While life is flowing, friends sometimes have to pay attention to small details. Maybe what you think will change your life.
