Description

First, some housekeeping. Humans are faced with multiple existential crises. Here in the northeast, recent events have highlighted the salience of the environmental crisis and climate change.

BJJ Meditations is committed to being a force for change. From here forward, at least one percent of all pre-tax proceeds will be donated to organizations committed humanity's and the planet's continued wellbeing.

This week's meditation highlights the psychological inflection point present in any competitive confrontation. We must decide to win on the mats. We must decide to win ecologically.

The decision arises the moment momentum starts to shift away from us and toward our opponent. How do we train at deciding to win so that making the decision is as automatic as flipping a switch?

Some weird thoughts and reflections on all of these things in this week's BJJ Meditations.
