Perseverance

I say this all the time, Jiu Jitsu is hard. So what can you bring to the gym, that will make everyone’s life easier? The attitude of perseverance. The attitude that you can and you will. It can be on your own time, and it doesn’t need to be perfect, but if you want to learn BJJ you have to work. I came up as a physically limited kid in a class of grown men, but the expectations were the same. I see differently abled people grapple all the time. You can do it, but if you don’t put the work in it won’t get any better. Make an effort, persevere, not just on the mat, but everywhere in your life.
