No price is too high to pay to keep yourself from getting a swelled head.
And the best remedy for that?
Getting your ass whooped by someone smaller.
And eating some humble pie from time to time.
I truly believe there’s no sport better than BJJ for entrepreneurs.
It’s a highly faceted sport that has something for everyone.
If you’re athletic you’ll find great enjoyment.
If you’re cerebral you can dive thousands of hours into techniques.
Plus compared to boxing - you take no brain damage, which you definitely can’t afford as an entrepreneur.
I’ve always leaned towards grappling sports.
The first time I grappled was in a MMA gym in Brussels.
With a Chechnyan wrestling coach.
I almost puked.
Since then, I’ve developed an incredible respect for grapplers.
And I understood why, since the dawn of time, grappling has always been depicted in art.
Why every culture and civilisation across the world has it’s own form of a grappling sport.
From the mountains of Georgia…
To the vast plains of Mongolia.
There’s something poetic about grappling.
Like struggling against fate.
And if you enjoy traveling.
There’s no community that’s more welcoming than in BJJ.
You can often land in any country, message a local gym, and drop in.

Who knows, you might make some new friends.
So give it a shot.
It’s a fun sport.
With incredible depth.
An amazing community that doesn’t take itself too seriously.
And most importantly, keeps you from getting a swelled head.
