Lesson: Drills v. Keiko

Recently, Desmond Senpai and Roxy Sensei both pointed out that my kendo during the basic drills and keiko are different.  (It was funny how the couple -- they're married -- told me 'exactly' the same thing in completely different times!)

Desmond Senpai (and Roxy Sensei also) said that my kendo during the basic drills (exercising specific strikes) are fine, but when it comes to keiko, my kendo changes.  I become more hesitant, indecisive and incompetent.  Even if I miss the attack or get hit, I should go for the attacks using the proper kendo with full energy.

My kendo during the drills and keiko should be consistent.
