From Chewjitsu

October 9, 2023 · 1:02:57

On this episode of the podcast, Chewy and Eugene discuss an uncomfortable truth about achieving your goals.

We chat about the idea of desire vs. discomfort, the reasons why people quit Jiu-Jitsu, why barrier of entry is important to attrition, the three types of BJJ students, two useful ideas for chasing goals, how to increase desire and decrease discomfort in BJJ, why a Jiu-Jitsu gym is a "walled garden," and how to overcome tough patches as a white belt.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
