I think this all goes back to the concept of competition. If you truly believe in competition then it's a pretty grim outlook. But if you're serious about something you're going to "succeed" no matter what. The only person that's going to make you fail is yourself and you would only do that if you decide you truly don't want it. If you really want it, it's already yours. I think the 99
% thing applies to many things including Taw kwon do. 99% don't make black belt but that's only because they never even had the thought/goal/aspiration etc to make black belt, they were just in tae kwon do probably because they didn't know what the hell else to do, they were unconscious. But if you consciously know and plan to go all the way, you'll go all the way, it's not hard, life is not hard, it's easy, if you follow the rules you'll make it no doubt.
