EP 30: Nobody Expects You To Be Good

Have you ever thought about the connection between your mind and body, and how they together shape your life story? Through my journey of practicing Jiu Jitsu for a year, I have embarked on a path of continuous self-improvement and growth. The beauty of Jiu Jitsu is that it's not about being good instantly; it's about pushing through challenges, learning from mistakes, and truly understanding your body's movements. It's about meeting your own expectations of self-improvement, rather than succumbing to external pressures of perceived perfection.
In this reflective episode, I draw parallels between Jiu Jitsu and emotional health, emphasizing the need for pressure testing, reflecting, and accepting criticism. I delve deeper into the importance of integrating new information and maintaining a balance between ambition and complacency. The journey might be marked with repeated failures, but remember, every stumble is a step towards learning and growth. So, let's embrace this journey together, connect our minds and bodies, and write the best life story we possibly can.
