Episode 185 - Rules For Jiu-Jitsu 6: Don't Judge A Book By Its Cover

From Chewjitsu

December 13, 2021 · 49:45

On this episode of the podcast, Chewy and Eugene discuss the idea of not judging a book by its cover.

We discuss over-estimation and under-estimation of others and yourself, importer syndrome, letting go of expectations, drills in Jiu-Jitsu to help with opening up your game, why you shouldn't perceive things as positive or negative in regards to Jiu-Jitsu, how to build confidence, why you should avoid hanging on to things, why Chewy's game stalled at purple belt, and correlations of body-type and BJJ style.

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gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.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.
