Mistakes

​I think there is some sort of belief that I’m infallible or that I don’t make mistakes or mess anything up in my rolls. The truth is I mess things up all of the time, it’s just not as obvious. Whereas you beat yourself up for getting submitted, I beat myself up for being out of position or missing an opportunity. Mostly I still win if I mess something up, so it’s not really noticeable to anyone but me. Lucas Lepri’s tagline is “Be Precise”, I’m not that precise, but I do have exacting standards on my execution and believe that’s necessary for continual improvement.
