Opinions and action

It’s good to have opinions but they need to be backed up with taking action. Otherwise, there’s not much use to it.

In other words, being astute and sharing your opinions is great and all, but don’t share them if you have nothing to back it up, or you’re not willing to at least test your assumptions.

I don’t mean to be judgmental, I’m merely thinking of my own past and how I could have done things differently. I guess I’m saying I wish I had more guts in the past, and would like to see more people take action on their ideas!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Hi, I’m Tim Bunting AKA the Kiwi Yamabushi, a New Zealander who became a Yamabushi Ascetic in the Dewa Sanzan mountains of north Japan. I’m part of the Yamabushido team, and we host life-altering Yamabushi training on the Dewa Sanzan (website link). People come to us for the ultimate mindfulness experience, to reach the next level, or simply connect with nature and themselves.

I’m on a mission to summit all 100 Famous Mountains of Yamagata Prefecture to spread the splendour of this fabulous location, and in dedication to all those who lost their lives out in nature, including my father.

On my daily blog I post thoughts of a practicing Yamabushi that I hope people can use to better themselves and live as fulfilling a life as possible.

Sign up to the weekly Mountains of Wisdom newsletter, follow me on social (Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, TikTok, Clubhouse, all @kiwiyamabushi), or send me an email via the link below to stay in touch.

Tim.
