In this reflective moment, Nic discusses how his relationship with jiu-jitsu has evolved into a deeply personal challenge. He draws a parallel between yoga and jiu-jitsu, noting that while yoga is often described as a martial art against oneself, he’s discovering jiu-jitsu to be similarly introspective. As he ages and faces increasingly skilled younger practitioners who have better access to information, he finds himself battling internal resistance and excuses to avoid training. The real martial art, he explains, has become recognizing and overcoming these mental barriers – from forcing himself to put on the gi to pushing through moments of doubt while training with younger, tougher opponents. #JiuJitsuJourney #MentalStrength #MartialArtsMindset #BJJ #Resilience #TrainingMotivation #SelfDiscovery #SportPsychology #BJJLife #OvercomingChallenges
