Re: What would you have said??????

Quote:
I agree that you should tell the student honestly how long you think. Then tell that student that old story (I don't remember the exact numbers here, but it was something like...) A student asks the teacher how long to get a black belt and the teacher says 7 years. The student asks, what if I train fanatically day and night, and the teacher says, well then it will take 14 years...

Have read this one many times before, although always with slight variations. will see if i can dig it up.
