What I teach when I teach Tai Chi

When I teach Tai Chi, I feel like I am just a vehicle. I am a vehicle transferring knowledge which I don’t own. I never feel that the knowledge I have is mine. It is not and never will be mine. I only hope I do justice to the knowledge I do have and that the vehicle receiving this knowledge will do likewise.

Hey, it’s just Tai Chi. Why does this sound like some secret sauce that is not supposed to be shared? The beauty I find with these kind of knowledge is that, even if it’s shared openly, not many people will get it. Not many people will want to. And then justifications start pouring in. I’m too old. It’s too slow. It’s not real. You still have to use strength.

Just like the secret sauce that Warren Buffet uses. He openly tells people how he invests, and he was asked before that if everyone uses his method, wouldn’t that make everyone rich? Unfortunately (or fortunately), after many decades, his method still proves to be sound, and people still choose to ignore them.

Maybe that’s why value investing will continue to work. Maybe that’s why Tai Chi will continue to be elusive. The knowledge will only present itself to those worthy of it. Sad to say, i’m still not there yet, but I am hopeful. :)
