I started doing jujitsu years ago.
And my- Wait, step back.
But I progressed at a rate that was different than most people.
And people will ask me how, and I'm like, I do exactly what the coach tells me to do.
And if they say, put your hand here, I'll look at them and I'll say, do you mean every time?
And if they say yes, regardless of where I want to put my hand, my hand goes right there.
And then I'm not on the internet looking for a way to cheat having my hand there or a short circuit or a shortcut.
You strip everything away.
I mean, because literally your life turns into blocks of just driving or rally courses or dirt bike or shooting.
And you have the best people in a lot of what they do isn't applicable to the job, but you learn how to parse out what is.
And then that becomes your fundamentals.
And then you just build on those fundamentals over time.
It doesn't surprise me that they were able to do that because that's what their life looks like at that point.
You just shut everything off and do exactly what the person in front of you is telling you what to do.
Your resume is pretty well established.
And again, the people in the shooting world, you're talking about like IPSC, three gun, multiple time, like grand masters and world champions.
When the dude shows up, the resume can be put to the side because it's like, here's the last 30 years of him crushing everybody.
And when that guy says like, hey, this is how I hold a gun,
I don't know.
Maybe just do exactly how he holds the gun.
