On this episode, we answer a question from a newly promoted BJJ Blue belt, who doesn't feel that they are up to the standard of the other blue belts at their gym.
We discuss the magical powers of Jiu-Jitsu belts, growing into your Jiu-Jitsu belt, which belt ranks are the largest jumps, underestimating and overestimating your abilities, the belt when everything restarts, the usefulness of belts, the value of recognition in Jiu-Jitsu, and dealing with imposter syndrome.
