Episode notes
Mental Endurance Has A Limit
- People have different mental endurance limits like cups filling up under stress; once full, they reach a breaking point.
- Surviving intense, prolonged combat builds extreme courage but eventually leads to combat fatigue regardless of toughness.
Balance Detachment and Connection
- Separate work and home life physically and mentally by changing your clothing and environment to avoid emotional burnout.
- Be detached enough to manage emotions at work but open enough to show you care at home and in relationships.
Use Jiu Jitsu To Stop Bullying
- Enroll a bullied child in Jiu Jitsu to build real confidence and physical skills to prevent bullying and becoming a bully.
- Standing up confidently often stops bullies because most intimidation relies on perceived physical dominance.
