Never lower your sights to an elevation that can be attained with a minimal or moderate amount of effort.
Your target should be immensely difficult to strike, requiring a life of service, consistency and discipline.
The day in the photo was one of the more meaningful of my life, almost 2 years ago.
Despite its importance for me - it only marks the middle of the road between a beginner and a black belt…
And from there, the beginning of yet another journey toward excellence.
Going into this weekend’s competition, I’ve been thinking a lot about why I’ve kept up my martial arts practice even though it is largely painful, exhausting, and injurious to the body especially as I get close to my 40’s.
It all comes down to the need for a lifestyle of devotion.
Jiu Jitsu is one aspect of my “Bushido,” which, for lack of Western synonym, refers to an entire Way of being, ruled by specific principles and loyalty to an ideal.
This ideal becomes the “master” worth serving with one’s entire life.

11 competitors (not all pictured), 8 gold medalists, some double gold, had a good day myself taking bronze in purple belt gi, silver in expert no gi against black and brown belts, and won a few matches in absolute as well.
3rd place overall as a team.
Devotion ULTRAS up.
Very proud of this gang of brawlers today.
