West Side Jiu-Jitsu is full of friendly people. It is. I’ve been thinking about it lately and I’ve come up with a theory about why. Why does West Side have a lot of friendly people that train here? The answer is simple—it’s because mean people can’t handle being beaten by people they think are inferior to them, so after their first day, and a lot of tapping, they quit.
It’s a theory. Mean people, jerks, and bullies cannot pass what I call the ego test, and that is simply realizing you’re not as tough as you thought you were and being okay with that–being okay with not being the toughest. They can’t comprehend that you don’t have to prove your worth by making someone else feel worthless. They don’t understand that their ego can be a hindrance and a road block to their own growth. Mean people for the most part quit jiu-jitsu.
I like friendly people—to me friendly is fearless.
