My friend recently competed in a couple Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu tournaments which levelled up his game. As a result, we've been going toe to toe the last couple weeks until he finally whooped my ass.
Me being me, I decided to upgrade my strength training and let's just say It bought me some time until he catches up. Last night we went a few rounds which led to me whooping him again.
I humbly told him I had to change my workout routine and today I woke up to a screenshot of him sending me his workout stats this morning.
There was a huge grin on my face!
These are the type of friends you should have in your circle, those who are constantly trying to self-improve and reinvent themselves.
Message of the day is to choose your tribe wisely.
