What You Don't Do Means More Than What You Do Do

Watching a Muay Thai class after mine today, it occurred to me that sometimes it's not about what you do do, but what you don't do. The best guy in the class had a lot of don'ts. He didn't have a conditioning problem. He didn't lose focus. He didn't deviate from his intensity. He didn't wait a second to start the next thing. He didn't half-ass what he did. He didn't have an attitude. He didn't squander himself. Unburdened, he was the best.
