Commit

​This is a common one, especially when it comes to standup. If you want to throw somebody it can’t be done in halves. You either throw someone or you don’t, there is no try. Timidity is incredibly common in all aspects of Jiu Jitsu, because nobody wants to be stuck in a bad position for extended periods of time. That leads us to two things 1. Get better at getting out of bad situations so that you can confidently attempt whatever you want 2. Do the thing, consequences be damned. If you make a full effort in the room and mess it up, it’s a learning experience, but you must make an earnest attempt.
