If we want to achieve greater heights, we have to climb higher mountains, that we have never journeyed on. Greater things are attained outside the comfort zone. Dream big and don’t be afraid to fail in the pursuit of following what you’re passionate about.

Having my hand raised at the end of the match on my 1st IBJJF Worlds Masters was indescribable. It was surreal.

I also truly appreciate the learning in losing. If we don’t fail, I guess we’re not even trying. I’d rather risk losing than not trying at all.

“Imagine if you will, being on your death bed – and standing around your bed – the ghosts of the ideas, the dreams, the abilities, the talents given to you by life.

And that you for whatever reason, you never acted on those ideas, you never pursued that dream, you never used those talents, we never saw your leadership, you never used your voice, you never wrote that book.

And there they are standing around your bed looking at you with large angry eyes saying ‘we came to you, and only you could have given us life! Now we must die with you forever.’

The question is – if you die today, what ideas, what dreams, what abilities, what talents, what gifts, would die with you?” -Les Brown

No regrets.

Adam Wardzinski is regarded as one of jiujitsu’s top heavyweight competitors of this generation and known for his effective butterfly guard. Glad to have the opportunity to learn from him at our home gym Deftac Alabang.
