Guardianship and Discipline: Understanding Mississippi Guardianship Forms Through the Lens of Wing Tsun Philosophy

First thing is first, when I was stamped with my mother’s obstetrician’s appt., to be born a male, I am fore sure a true Aries. I have been in Wing Tsun Kung Fu since 1999, and the instructor, Grand Master Joseph Wong teaches and believes in discipline and focus. You folks do not even know how I can relate to this, unless you are apart of the Wing Tsun Family. The basics, you start out with your forms, and the discipline it takes to learn them and practice them in the right manner. From the beginning, focus on your structure, and being able to be aware and see all around you at once.

This comes in handy, especially when working on guardianship law. The discipline of the Wing Tsun system teaches us to pay attention and be aware of our surrounding areas, let alone the area that we are facing. In Wing Tsun, there are three forms, including the wooden dummy. Now when you move into the next, face the next. It may seem that they are the same, however there is a slight difference and needs to be practiced, so that you know the difference. You may think, it is just moving in a circle or sideways, regardless of what direction. There is a pattern, then within that pattern, there are sub-patterns. If you don’t have the discipline and focus to see these patterns, you may think it is more of a side step or just the next form. Then you miss out on an opportunity to truly learn, and practice what you’re learning. And that is the point, practice and repetition. This is why it is so important to make sure you practice each form slowly, and in the proper order, making sure you know the directions of movement, as well as the sets and sub patterns.

This relates to guardianship law, and filling out guardianship forms, when one is representing themselves in Legal matters, such as a guardianship. The discipline comes into play when you make sure that you are filling out the forms properly. We talk about filling out the forms properly, and making sure that the facts are all correct, rather it be your address, your phone number, the date, the city you live in, the postal code, etc. You may think, okay, well that is pretty easy. It is, however, you want to make sure that your address is correct, your name is spelled right, and that all of the dates and correct information, is filled in properly.

For instance, if you are filing a guardianship within the state of Mississippi, you want to make sure that the guardianship forms are for the State of Mississippi. Some forms can be used in other states and some cannot. Another example is, if you are filing a guardianship and you are the petitioner, you want to make sure that the Petitioners name is correct, and spelled correctly. If this is wrong, and you do not have the proper authority to file, it can over complicate things, and cause problems down the line. The same with the person who is being appointed as the guardian. What I am saying is, the discipline and focus in Wing Tsun, helps you to learn the move, and you learn the movement and you practice it, until it becomes a sub pattern or second nature. If you don’t follow the directions, atomic or sub, then you can not learn the movement, nor execute the movement properly. Same with the guardianship forms, you want to make sure that you are filling out the forms properly, so that there is nothing mis-entered, and you take your time and the proper measures, to double check your work, before submitting it to the Court.

When obtaining Mississippi guardianship forms, you want to make sure that you obtain the proper guardianship forms for the County in which you live, or for the County in which you are filing. You also want to obtain the 2019 guardianship forms, as the forms change on a yearly basis. You also want to make sure that you follow the guidelines of the Mississippi Judiciary System. They have the proper guardianship forms available on their website. That is the forms for Mississippi Department of Human Services guardianship forms as well as disability guardianship forms for the State of Mississippi. You want to make sure that the jurisdiction for which you are filing is correct as well. We handle a lot of guardianships, and are familiar with the forms. However, we always recommend that you get the courts assistance, and file with the proper court, and the clerks assistance, although the clerk’s are not attorneys. And that you make sure that the forms are up to date, current and filed with the correct county court, or youth court.

Now, with Wing Tsun, there is a lot of practice that goes into learning one technique. And all of the practice and all of the sub patterns that go into that technique. Assemble the practice and focused have all the practice and all the forms and fighting techniques that you practice, and you do kung fu. Kung fu actually means, just as much as you can learn, as far as the word translates in the Chinese dialect. Example, that we would say, walking, maybe walking is same, but how you walk will determine the outcome of the guardian, such as the one that we were talking about. However, in Chinese dialect, walking and walking may have the same root word. Now, we have a lot of different words that reflect how you would say “walking” in the English dialect. However, in the Chinese dialect, the equivalent might be, just as much as you can so, just as much as you can learn, would be how it translates into the English dialect.

Therefore, when you are completing Mississippi guardianship forms, you must enjoy the process and follow the steps and make sure that all of the forms are up to and including up to date and correct. You also want to make sure that you are submitting them on time and the proper time frames and steps are followed within the Court, as well as the forms. So, just as sure as you take your time to learn the basics in Wing Tsun, and make sure that you follow the steps in the life forms and learning the techniques, you also want to make sure that you are following the proper steps in the guardianship law, and make sure all the court rules are properly followed, to ensure that the outcome is favorable for yourself and your loved one in the guardianship matter. It may seem like an art in the same way that Wing Tsun is an art as well. You hear a lot of people say the same when it comes to martial arts, however guardianship law is similar to that in the sense that knowing the proper steps and how to execute those steps is just as important, and that discipline and focus is paramount when learning and mastering guardianship law, as it is when learning and mastering Wing Tsun.
