Brazilian Jiu Jitsu of Washington Heights 4450 Broadway New York, NY 10040 (190th st Manhattan)

Always do what you love and the rest will follow.

Good evening Blog,

I just want to start out by saying I’m thankful for my daughter for taking this pic at the perfect moment. She said to me daddy you sure love Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I told her honey if you love something so much and are passionate about it you will always smile.

I‘m truly sorry for the people that are not as passionate about something like us jiujiteiros are. If you do jiu jitsu just to do it,

I’m sorry but the chances of you sticking with it are very low. Every time you wake up to go to class you will always find an excuse not to go. Trust me you will always find everything under the sun to not attend. You have to truly love this. You have to truly have a passion for this if you want to find the energy to attend.

A tip I would recommend to everyone getting into Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is to think of it as a passion and not a chore. Train your mind into thinking that bjj is better than going out and having drinks. That bjj is better than staying home and watching tv on the couch. That bjj is better than that opponent that always kicks your butt. Once you master that and train your mind the rest will come. I’m not saying these things are bad, but you cannot let your mind convince you every time.

Remember that training your mind not only helps with bjj but it also helps in life.

Until next time Blog Oss 🤙
