This book was written in the summer of 2017 in preparation for my 4th degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do. This book is divided into two parts: In Part 1, I go over ten steps of effective board breaking and I correlate those ten aspects into real-life lessons in my life. In Part 2, I describe my overall thoughts on the martial arts, a perspective I've gained after 22 years of diligent practice.
