How BJJ will Boost Your Confidence Life can be brutal sometimes. We all know this. Whether you’re an adult dealing with work, bills and raising children or a kid navigating life and trying to figure out how you fit into the world. There is no doubt that it is important to be confident in yourself to succeed through life’s challenges. Confidence sets apart the strong from the weak. A confident person can speak up despite possible disagreements. A confident child can stand up to a bully or simply by how they carry themselves project an energy that says, “I will not be put down”. Jiu Jitsu is one of only a few martial arts that requires its students to execute the techniques on a resisting opponent regularly. It provides the opportunity to try new things despite the possibility of failure and to learn that even when it does fail it is not the end of the world; it is a learning opportunity. This is a powerful life lesson. It teaches all of us that despite our fear we can still try our best, and how to deal with failure when it comes.
