Me personally, my ambition is to just improve. I know this sounds really naff and unspecific, but larger ambitions of, say, winning a major IBJJF title, I think realistically at my age and lifestage is a no goer. This is a good thing ie I can train without killing myself. But also a bad thing - I am abit lazy and don;t really train with a larger purpose. Having said that, I like to balance work, family and BJJ fairly equally so everyone is happy, which ultimately makes me happy. Oh, and get to train with Kyra Gracie, now that Penny has been ticked off my list ;) Keep up the posts, great to read! Ambition, hmmm.

I realised a while ago that ambition means alot if you want to achieve anything. Looking at people I went to school with, its those with the most ambition that have the good jobs now, not necessary the cleverest or the best achievers. As for me, I dont really have much ambition in anything except for BJJ which I put all my efforts into! I think you also have great ambition for BJJ, this blog together with your consistent training and regular competitions is proof of that! Nice post John.
