My code of life and my personal bushido is honour, respect, loyalty, courage and surrender.
Study is a life long pursuit.
If you are ready to die, then you are ready to live.
The most important thing is not victory, the most important thing is don't get defeated.
Don't be rushed, be sure.
Jiu-jitsu puts you completely in the moment, where you must have a complete focus on finding a solution to the problem. This trains the mind to build that focus, to increase your awareness, your capacity to solve problems.
