柔术形而上学（2023/3/24）

表面的平静：柔术有一个特别之处，有时两位运动员看起来并不不活跃，但实际上两位运动员都在激烈的竞争，尽管很少人能看到。 一切就发生在他们之间。 柔术毕竟是一项体育运动，只有内行人才能看明白门道，而在外行人看来什么也没发生，尽管两者都在争夺优势。 有时可能是争夺谁的头在内线，有时是争夺谁的头在上面——这些争夺虽然看起来微不足道，但对谁将得分有很大的影响。 学会在一场更大的战争中看到这些小战斗的重要性是你技术进步的一个很好的迹象。 永远记住,柔术就像生活一样 - 你前期的任何努力都会对结局有很大影响- 所以不要害怕在这些“隐形”的竞争中花时间 - 先建立小优势，然后再进入大动作。

Sometimes there’s a lot going on when it seems like there’s nothing going on: A strange thing about jiu jitsu is that there can be periods where the two athletes seem inactive, but underneath both are engaged in a tight contest for advantage that few can see even though it’s all happening in front of them. It is very much a sport only those who’ve spent a lot of time in similar situations can understand that both are vying for advantage even though it appears to the casual observer that nothing is happening. Sometimes can be something like a battle for inside head position, or top hand position - elements that don’t look like much but which have a big impact on who will dominate the next scoring exchange. Learning to see the importance of these small battles within a larger war is a good sign of your technical progress. Remember always that Jiu jitsu is like life - the quality of your start in any endeavor has a big impact on the degree of difficulty of a successful finish - so don’t be afraid to take your time in these seemingly inactive periods - establish your advantage first and THEN go into the big moves.
