Some Insight into Me

To Everyone who is a member of my site, Thank you! Not only are you supporting me and allowing me to make this my job, but you make me feel wanted. I just did a podcast interview with BJJFanatics where, in the end, they asked me what my goals were for the end of the year and next year. My answer was somewhat this," I don't know, I hope like 3 more things. Whatever that will be, I can be proud of it. This year, I created the HeisenGuard2.0 and Malaplata. I really was proud of that for a month :) Then, it disappeared until people started sharing what I taught online with their students. Some amazing coaches send me clips of their training and teaching it globally.

The big thing is that I live off accomplishing things. When they are done, they are over. I need the next thing to feel good.

I teach most of my classes and prepare before every class. I want it to be good. I want it to be something a quarter will take away from that they have never seen or thought of. It was so rare, and still is, that someone above purple belt would learn something new in a general class.

The members who come to my site and learn from the new material I put together have been keeping me busy and giving me those wins or small accomplishments. Seeing a new customer is fantastic, and losing a customer sucks (not just bc of the financial side but that they didn't find what I created as worth the subscription) But I know I am constantly connecting and sharing with the world what I have toiled over and adapted or created things I thought were unique and that they would receive nowhere else.

Throughout my life, I have measured success through wins and losses. However, there are better ways to evaluate success and promote creativity. Throughout my life, I have measured success through wins and losses. However, I know there are better ways to assess success and encourage creativity., but it forces me to create and not get lazy either with my academy or my instructionals online. One thing you will always get from me and my teaching, whether in person or online, is that I care about what I give you. I want it to be unique, and I want it to feel like you are getting that from me. What are the next 3 things to accomplish? Who knows.

I would love to see some videos from my students.

Also I am categorizing the collections as they are very large but I will also be making much smaller collections that deal with one area of a BJJ Subsection like Overhook Triangle collection rather than it just being only in the Triangle section. Shorter collections will make it easier to digest and find information
