Mindset Tips #4

"What matters is not how many classes you take, but what you take from each class."

"Any time you learn a new technique that you think could be of use to you, you must focus all your efforts making that technique part of your arsenal. If you spar after learning a new technique and you only resort to your pre-existing favorite moves, you are more than likely going to forget the new technique in a day or two. If when you spar, you focus all your efforts on creating the opportunity for, and using, the new technique, you stand a much greater chance of making it your own. It is better to incorporate a new technique and lose than it is to forget the new technique and win."
