One of the toughest parts with competitions early on is taking the loss. If you’re a seasoned competitor it’s pretty normal and you become used to the sting.
But with Brazilian Jiu-jitsu practitioners who are new to them. That can feel terrible.
In today’s video our friend who is a Blue Belt has lost the drive to train BJJ anymore after a competition loss.
The BJJ tournament was so intimidating to him that he says he never wants to one ever again. And because he began training Brazilian Jiujitsu to compete he now doesn’t know why he is training.
In this video I share about how my very 1st competition was a loss and the sting of that. I also explained how the contrast of my 1st win made all the difference.
If you’re in a situation where you are drawn to competing but for some reason had a bad outcome. That doesn’t mean you should give up. I believe in the situation you double down on your efforts.
Even if it’s simply to experience 1 win. You need to do that. Because it’s that getting knocked down then getting back up mentality that will carry over to every aspect of our training and lives.
