With 20+ years of grappling and competing you learn a few things.
And today I’m going to give you an important rule for your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training. Probably 1/3 of the questions I received revolve around some form this idea.
That rule is. . .
You must understand the paradox of BJJ progression.
Here’s what I mean.
On one hand you remove your dependency on the outcome. A lot of times this gets worded to something like trust the process or love the journey not the destination.
From personal experience. Detaching myself from the immediate outcome was one of the biggest breakthroughs I ever experienced in BJJ. It freed me from worry and allowed me to become more aggressive, creative and unafraid of “what ifs”.
Here’s the flipside to that.
You still have to recognize good performances and bad performances.Or perhaps you prefer well executed vs poorly executed techniques. When you fail you can’t simply dust it under the rug and ignore it to focus on the journey. You need to break it apart, dissect it and crack open the lessons to be learned from the experience.
It’s a balancing act.
You have to roll like failures don’t exist but objectively look at every failure with a magnifying glass.
And truly understanding this paradox is one of the key ingredients for having a good mindset for getting better at BJJ. At least in my furry faced opinion.
