I can't wait till I go to Las Vegas to compete at the Grapplers Quest. I'm more motivated now then the first time I competed and I know now what to expect. This will give me another reason to go out there and have fun and get my mind clear of what goes on here in my daily life. The last year has been great competing again and I would have to say that I am in the best shape that i've been in the last 9 years. The biggest thing is doing this for myself and those who have helped shaped me into the person that i've become. I know I have a big heart and my work ethic is there and I know with training hard each hour of every single day I know that I can achieve what I set myself out to do. When the next year comes around I hope for it to be the year I finally dont look back and move more foward with my life. I've become more non reliant on other people and have been looking for more ways to do things for myself trying to manage things right so I wouldn't have to ask for anyones help for anything. I have 6 more classes to take but looks like i'll be changing my career field again hopefully by next summer or fall i'll have a new job once I finish these law enforcement programs I get into at the school i'm at now or if I get into the police academy i'll be good to go.
The first task though is finishing this semester out with hopeful passing grades and then going to vegas and winning my skill division and the absolute divisions and hopefully coming close to that 25 match mark I had set for myself when I started doing Brazilian Jiu jitsu. I know now that I have to really work for a better life style and more in a more positive direction.
