What’s up guys,
Today we’ve got a question from Aaron, who is getting a little older, 49 years old, and he’s had a string of bad luck (ACL Tear, Cancer, COVID, Labral Tear in his Shoulders, etc).
He’s a 4-stripe brown belt but says he feels like an absolute shell of his former self.
He says that when he was a BJJ Purple Belt, he was training a lot more and would decimate this new, 4-stripe brown belt version of him.
He’s worried that he’s not ready for the impending black belt that is soon to come.
He’s wondering if he should tell his coach NOT to promote him to Black Belt OR if he should just take the Black Belt and be happy with it.
Thanks for watching!

Today our question comes from a viewer who got their BJJ Blue Belt in 8 months…
Now, for most of you, 8 months is pretty cool…
for him, it’s not so cool. He sees on the internet that, for most people, a Blue Belt is 1.5-2 years on average, and he feels uneasy about it.
He feels like he may not of had enough time to develop and is getting a bit of imposter syndrome.
He then competed at Blue Belt, lost his first match quick, got embarrassed, and left the competition feeling deflated.
That lingering “boogyman” in his head telling him he’s not ready was validated by that competition telling him that he does not belong.
He’s had a couple weeks off, but coming back he has this overwhelming feeling of anxiety and does not trust his Blue Belt.
He’s asking for some advice on the whole situation.
I got my Blue Belt really quick too (although I was a wrestler) and I’ll kinda tell you how I dealt with this “imposter syndrome” or lack of readiness.
Hopefully you found this video helpful. Thanks for watching!
