Oakland, 1964. JUN FAN GUNG FU ALL WELCOME If you always put limits on what you can do… …physical or anything else. It’ll spread over into the rest of your life. TAP It’ll spread into your work. Into your mortality. Into your entire being. There are no limits. There are plateaus. 54, 55, 56… But you must not stay there. 88, 89, 90… You must go beyond them. 203, 204… TAP! If it kills you, it kills you. A man must constantly exceed his level. - Bruce Lee
