When I first transitioned to training five times a week I naively wanted to be a world-champion. I couched my absurd ambition saying to myself, "not like Gordan. Just a GI world champion..." Silly, I know.
Now, I just want to flow. I watch other black belts like Roy Dean and wonder how they move so fluidly. How do their movements appear effortless? That's the goal at least for now.
