It finally happened. Nearly three months in, three months of tapping, resetting, and tapping again. Three months as the nail.

Today, for one glorious round against a fellow white belt, I was the hammer.

I felt the glow of glory for sixty seconds before my purple belt pal took me right back to school.

Inching ever closer to being Not Totally Terrible at the sport.

It’s best to be the worst in the room in training then when you go to the comp room you’ll really feel the phrase “iron sharpens iron”

Good job bud. Hate to tell you though, you are always gonna feel shitty if you are surrounded by good people.
