Episode 327: Do you get Anxious about rolling and competing? Do find yourself constantly criticising yourself with negative self talk? This is actually not helping you just do the thing- get better at BJJ. Managing your self talk and your psychological approach to the pressures of BJJ is key to your long term success. Both JT & Joey have had their own battles with managing their minds and have had very different journeys taking different approaches to getting their heads straight. There is a definite time to expect high standards, analyse and critique what you are doing... but do not keep breaking things down and criticising when it is time to perform.
Knowing when to think and when to just go is a skill that needs to be practiced and understood. If you are not learning different ways to keep a handle on your mind in a BJJ context then you are missing out. Everyone is different whether you are a hype beast or Zen champion you need a routine to be able learn and perform at your full potential. You gotta cut out the negative self talk and know how to get yourself right.
