Black Belt Essay Topics

Knowing that I will be going up for Shodan next year, I shall begin to ramp up the preparations. A requirement to get the black belt is to write an essay.
 
The topics are usually:
  • What have I learned
  • How has Karate changed my life
  • How do I use Karate in my life
  • How will I use my knowledge to benefit others
  • What is a black belt
  • What makes a good student
  • What makes a good teacher
  • What is karate to you
And probably a billion more topics and variations of this. So here I will begin.

I suppose I'll do reflections first.

What I have learned as a brown belt (so far).

To be a brown belt, it is neccessary to have a way higher standard for everything you do. Mistakes are not tolerated as well as before. You are responsible to keep order in the class where possible if the black belts are occupied. Your kime, form, and concentration must be more sharper than a purple belts.

And so many other things that I shall continue tommorow.
