The tenets of Taewkon-Do
|
|
|
It is proper that all people have good
manners, are polite, respectful, and courteous to one another. |
|
|
This is the quality of being honest. A
person with high integrity is said to be completely just and
trustworthy. |
|
|
The determination to complete, with the
firm belief that what you are doing is right, what has been started
and overcoming difficulties along the way. |
|
|
This is the ability to exercise control
over ones actions and emotions. The inability to live and work
without losing one's temper shows lack of self-control and loss of
dignity. |
-
Indomitable Spirit (beakjul boolgool)
|
This is the inner spirit a person has. A
spirit that produces courage at a time of injustice to deal with the
perpetrators regardless of who or what the may be. |
