BJJ

I haven’t spoken about BJJ on here very much. Tonight seems like a good time as I just had a productive class.

I am a purple belt striving for a brown – I feel confident in my defence and am working on solidifying my attacking game. This involves constant and continuous attacks – no breaks. If one submission does not work move on to the next immediately. In a bad position – make it better then attack. Attack. Attack. Attack.

Honestly my relationship with BJJ has been different recently. I can’t quite put my finger on it. Sometimes I am incredibly disheartened and don’t want to go, but when I do I feel great. I love the game – the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects.

Perhaps I am striving for a belt – which is the wrong way to approach it because it is out of my control. All I can control is my game – my focus needs to be on getting better – 1% every day.
