Following steps you should keep in mind if As a young nerd if you want to make karate as career:
▪︎Running Normal karate Dojo with lots of students will not make you rich
▪︎Start doing something different
▪︎Don't stop playing
▪︎keep your Aim high
▪︎Make Yourself a brand
▪︎ Running Normal karate dojo
This is the 1st mistake lots of Young Karate Nerd do, where they go wrong is thinking in a wrong way, opening a karate class and getting students seems soo easy for some , but the whole system is not well established , you will not become rich by just normally running karate dojo with lots of students
And this is your biggest mistake if you start focusing on money , If your whole motto is just money then there are lots of option for business.
History proves that teachers are always respected a lot but most of them are struggling with "living", because they are not getting paid for their knowledge.
Same karate as a career means You are choosing teaching field as career.
How could you get paid for your skills?
"Quality over Quantity " - This quote is very well useful if you want to make money.
If you are 'teaching', don't rush in getting soo much students, focus on making champions, focus on producing National and International winner's.
If you have good records , people will not mind paying you whatever amount you asked.
I have seen lots of coaches, who are getting much sum because their students are playing World championships
▪︎ Don't stop playing
If your age is below 30, you should not stop participating in karate leagues.
Some people belongs to middle class family that's why they are compelled to start earning at early age, but as Young karate nerd Along earning you should grow as Athletes.
Time management would be difficult for you, Nothing comes easy.
▪︎ Aiming high
Don't settle for anything less, Always aim for betterment, for getting more productive Work.
Doing same work everyday for years will not give you success and money also.
" Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will not die, but long after we are gone be a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing insistence " - Daniel Burnham
▪︎ Valuing Yourself
Don't expect people to value you , to admire your work , if you Yourself is not valuing your own self and own work
▪︎ Make yourself a brand
Yess, you heard it right ! If you create yourself as a brand then you don't have to argue with people for students, they will pay you any amount for training.
How you can do it ?
As a athlete by becoming world champion you can do this, and as now karate is in Olympics, people have started valuing it more.
"Lesson not just karate only. Lesson for whole life. Whole life have a balance. Everything be better." - Mr. Miyagi
"Karate is not a game. It is not a sport. It is not even a system of self-defense. Karate is half physical exercise and half spiritual. The karateist who has given the necessary years of exercise and meditation is a tranquil person. He is unafraid. He can even be calm in a burning building"
- Mas Oyama
