表面的平靜：柔術有一個特別之處，有時兩位運動員看起來并不不活躍，但實際上兩位運動員都在激烈的競爭，盡管很少人能看到。 一切就發(fā)生在他們之間。?柔術畢竟是一項體育運動，只有內行人才能看明白門道，而在外行人看來什么也沒發(fā)生，盡管兩者都在爭奪優(yōu)勢。 有時可能是爭奪誰的頭在內線，有時是爭奪誰的頭在上面——這些爭奪雖然看起來微不足道，但對誰將得分有很大的影響。 學會在一場更大的戰(zhàn)爭中看到這些小戰(zhàn)斗的重要性是你技術進步的一個很好的跡象。 永遠記住,柔術就像生活一樣 - 你前期的任何努力都會對結局有很大影響- 所以不要害怕在這些“隱形”的競爭中花時間 - 先建立小優(yōu)勢，然后再進入大動作。

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.
