I've spent nearly a decade trying to get better at something I'm not really very good at: bjj. This pursuit has improved nearly every aspect of my life. There are physical, emotional, intellectual, social, spiritual, and even financial benefits I never anticipated.

If you're sitting there doom scrolling right now, find a local gym and ask about a free trial (most will give you at least a free week). Don't worry, you don't have to get in shape first, they'll help you with that. Just check your ego at the door- it's likely that a lot of what you think you know is wrong. In fact, that's the first and maybe the best lesson of all.
