Great catching up with my old friend and BJJ mentor Robert Drysdale today. We enjoyed an extremely candid 80-minute conversation, mostly non-jiu jitsu related topics such as: The daunting task of balancing EGO in the quest for greatness; The 4 Mantras he makes his daughters, ages 5 and 7, repeat every day; The happiest people the 6’3”, 240-pounder has ever met; Being born in #Provo #Utah, raised #Mormon, and then moving to #Brazil; Robert, a jiu jitsu legend to many, is also pursuing a Master’s Degree at @unlv. We also discuss the rise of robots, dealing with entitled students and the tremendous value of pain and suffering.
