Many years ago when I was right into my martial arts, my Karate teacher told us that after a few years study you'll gain a confidance because you'll know how to protect yourself.
Your walk will change, the wayenter a room and look around will be noticed, people will tell that you have confidance, so much so that the study of martial arts offten means tha you will most likely not be called upon to use it. He was right, as I studied more I noticed these very things. Confindence is transmitted to others if you have it, people notice. So I wonder Slip how much of your experiances are due to you being balanced and confident, and how much to this aura?
