"Three Stages Of Cultivation"
I understand they are generally thought to be from and attributed to Bruce Lee however, they actually are from another author from the 1600Â’s if I remember correctly.
They are:
The Primitive stage: The stage of naturalness, one simply fights with no scientific aspects just instinctively.
The stage of Art: This is where one thinks about what is being done and works for specific moves and techniques. One may know what to do but it isnÂ’t natural and can be stifling.
The stage of Artlessness: One realizes that martial art is nothing special and instead of trying to impose his mind on the art, he adjusts himself to the opponent. Nothingness prevails; he no longer is confined by his method of training. He Is martial art.

3) Dissolve The Principles
