🎥 Novo Vídeo em Breve: Resenha do Master Worlds 2024!

Após o Master Worlds 2024, os Professores Rodrigo Feijao @rodrigo_cf_feijao , Bruno Bastos @brunobastosbjj e eu refletimos sobre o evento. Falamos sobre feedback construtivo, destaques, a evolução do jiu-jitsu e muito mais.

Em um certo momento, compartilhei a seguinte teoria:

Em cada categoria, 80% dos competidores não estão realmente prontos para conquistar o primeiro lugar. São os 20% restantes que conquistaram seu lugar em uma prateleira mais alta através de muito trabalho e dedicação. Esses são os destaques consistentes da categoria. 💪

Acabei de liberar essa conversa nos meus stories e decidi compartilhá-la como um post.

O que você acha? Você concorda com essa regra 80/20? Deixe seus pensamentos nos comentários abaixo—adoraria ouvir sua perspectiva! 🗣️

Fiquem ligados, pois estamos trabalhando na tradução para o inglês do Resumo do Master Worlds. 🔜

🎥 New Video Drop Soon: Master Worlds 2024 Wrap-Up!

After the Master Worlds 2024, Professors Rodrigo Feijao @rodrigo_cf_feijao , Bruno Bastos @brunobastosbjj , and I reflected on the event. We talked about constructive feedback, standout performances, jiu-jitsu’s evolution, and more.

At one point, I shared this theory:

In every bracket, 80% of the competitors aren’t truly ready to claim first place. It’s the remaining 20% who have earned their spot on a higher shelf through relentless work and dedication. These are the consistent standouts of the division. 💪

I’ve just released this conversation in my stories and decided to share it as a post.

What do you think? Do you agree with this 80/20 rule? Drop your thoughts in the comments below—I’d love to hear your perspective! 🗣️

Stay tuned, as we’re working on the English translation for the Master Worlds Wrap-Up. 🔜

@gustavodantasbjj @ibjjf 2024 Master Worlds Master 4/Feather/🥈

“Don’t chase medals, chase authenticity.”🥋 Bring the same true, authentic version of yourself from the academy to every tournament.

While nothing is guaranteed, showing up as your best self gives you a better shot at the success you desire. 🎯

Focus on executing your game plan. Sometimes your best is enough to win, sometimes it’s not—but the internal peace comes from knowing you did everything to be ready for the challenge. 💪🔥

Welcome to BJJ Mental Coach Podcast Episode 149. I’m your host Gustavo Dantas, and today we have Derek Price, a former NFL player, jiu-jitsu brown belt, and founder of The Faction Foundation. Derek and I first crossed paths in the early 2000s when he was a chiropractor, and I’ve been inspired by his journey ever since. This episode is packed with personal development insights and might be my longest one yet, but it’s worth it for all the great lessons Derek shares. Here’s a quick intro:

Derek Price has transitioned from NFL player and CEO of publicly traded hospitals to impactful personal coaching. Drawing on his experiences in the NFL, medical field, and CEO boardrooms, Derek has created a powerful success system for driven individuals. He founded The Faction Foundation to offer ambitious professionals the same comprehensive plan, playbook, coaching, and team support typically reserved for top athletes, doctors, and business leaders. Married for 30 years with three daughters, Derek is dedicated to sharing these tools with those who previously lacked access.

If you’re listening to the audio version, stay tuned for my final thoughts at the end of the episode, and why I titled it: “If it doesn’t challenge you, it won’t change you.”

Reflecting on your performance after a competition is vital to enhancing your skills. This involves examining four critical areas. The goal is to recognize what you did well and areas that need improvement, pursuing not the success others expect from you but the success you seek for yourself.
