Go For Broke,
You nailed it, keep it simple can also be "mastering the basics."
A long time ago in another life time I did some martial arts. I was the team captain for Chuck Norris's Northwest Team. This position was not granted for some degree of failure.
I was a player/coach competing all over the place. My observation after working out with some of the best in the world and getting to watch those who dominated on a regular basis is this:
The most competant fighters (street, self defense, tournament, etc.) are the individuals who have mastered and execute the basics very well.
