A Black Belt's Most Impactful Failure...was outside the gym.

I know neither of you. Thanks for your confeStill always abord whassion. Black belt in what? Have you ever as a black belt got the shit kicked out of you by a supposed nobody? It's common. Experts in patterns, forms, tocuh sparring, and even MMA, regularly get the shite kicked out of them by people in a chip shop. They are not trained for reality. World champions can fall to pieces with a real situation simply from the actual language and adrenaline of the street. The best supposed techniques in a gym, rarely work in real world applications. Its fun watching that realisation dawn, yet not so fun to realise as the suddenly awoken. Still always best to abosrb what is useful, even of its concrete shards, so your face is tougher next time. Except, their might not be one, so make sure that doesnt happen, in life, business, or near death.
