Why Your Belt Doesn't Matter and You Should Focus On This Instead! | White Belt Wednesday Ep. 7

We are diving into the real talk about belt colors in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I'm breaking down the myth that your belt defines everything, making a solid point about focusing more on getting better at Jiu-Jitsu than stressing over the next belt.

Belts are acknowledged as milestones, but the key is your progress and skill development. Don't forget that belts mean different things for everyone, based on factors like age and experience. Think of belts as pit stops on a road trip, not the whole journey or getting a driver's license - it's just the start, and learning never stops.

You should set practical goals and compete at your belt level to measure your skills. Bottom line: focus on consistent training, dedication, and personal growth, not just belt colors.
