While in the Marines, I often heard a Marine Sniper tell us young Marines "Weak minds make weak bodies." They taught us to push ourselves far more than we ever could imagine. It was very freeing and awesome to realize what we did after the fact when everything in our body told us to just quit. It is so easy to just quit. Overcoming that feeling makes you ten times stronger.
Did you ever feel like your heart was definitely gonna explode, almost exploded, but didn't quite explode but still it really scared you? Right on the edge of life and death. Yes?

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
It's happening just as I said it would...the healing phase of being "scared to death" is pneumonia, aka "flu". So as people are released from the solitary confinement of their homes (because of media and government lies based on the fraudulent Germ Theory), and people begin to get happy and feel less stressed, the result will be the healing phase....of pneumonia, flu, colds, general sickness. You can also see the light sensitivity, appendicitis in some, numerous tooth problems and gum swelling, laryngitis, etc. The fear campaign has caused ALL the illnesses, not a Boogey Virus. Every disease is based on the Germ Theory, which was the theory of ONE man over 100 years ago. It was never proven to be 100% valid, and has not even been QUESTIONED again. Why? In order for a theory to be valid, it must be reproduceable in each and every person 100% of the time. Every single person exposed to a "virus" MUST get sick from it 100% of the time, over and over again. It's how you PROVE a theory is valid. This was never done. Scientists used to think witches and witchcraft were valid!! Educated people?? hahaha!! If you cannot "catch" cancer, arthritis or diabetes from another person, then you cannot "catch" a cold or flu. There is no such thing that only SOME diseases are communicable, but not all. It's either all or none of them...they are all based on the same Germ Theory. If you can't “catch" someone's lung cancer, you can't "catch" their colds or flu. Upsetting and distressing events in a person's life is what causes ALL cancer and cancer-equivalent disease, cold, flu, pneumonia, bronchitis, etc. A massive fear campaign will CAUSE people to be "worried sick", but sickness doesn't happen until people resolve their fears. Why do you think kids get sick in October? Because their fear of going back to school and being upset about it finally dissolves, and they get back into their routines. What the media and government is doing to people is criminal. So of course, when everyone is allowed to escape the hostage situation the governments have put their people into, and they start relaxing about the "scary virus" that's not in any way transmissible, they will begin their healing phase (get sick), and the corrupt governments will call it a different “scary” word, a different Boogey Man coming to get you.....repeat the same mistakes that never worked from the beginning, re-institute the same restrictions that only made people more traumatized, and more panic will ensue as well as martial law, a removal of all your rights, and you let it happen. The longer people allow this government to hold them hostage in their homes, the more severe the "sickness" will be. Western Medicine is pure fraud, and people's lives are destroyed because of it. Welcome to the United States of China.
I just fucking love this guy. Ever since watching Choke in the early 90s I've loved him. I could listen to him talk all day. Such a wise and humble human being right there. I used to train at his brother in laws class, Mauricio Gomes in Birmingham UK and it was as close as I could ever get to training with a real Gracie.
Thank you sir. I've been struggling with sobriety and nothing is harder than being alone and facing myself every night and everyday is a struggle. We are our worst enemy, he's right about that.

This topic on fear reminds me of a quote that I try to live by: "Never turn your back on fear it should always be in front of you like a thing that might have to be killed".
Here is a true martial arts grandmaster, a highly trained and specialized JJ fighter, who finally learned to overcome his fears, ego and vanity. Legend.
This makes me proud of my Brazilian heritage. I've been training BJJ since I was 15. 23 now and a purple belt, I'm in this for the long haul. BJJ for life!
I was training for an MMA bout one time.. .and my coach, Danny Dring (living defense martial arts in arkansas)... an indescribably amazing coach, martial artist, mentor, and man.... not only told me the following, but he PROVED it to me time and time again: "Your mind will give up long before your body ever gives out." Much love to him, and to Rickson. Both inspire me.
Rickson is a fraud. Kazushi Sakuraba single-handedly exposed the multi-generational Gracie family. He called out Rickson but Rickson was smart enough to run and protect his fake record. Ever since then there have been no successful Gracie fighters, thanks to the legend Sakuraba.
@@silveriver9 the people who simp over the “Gracie family” make me cringe. I had one BJJ guy tell me “dude you don’t know proper Brazilian / Japanese name of this move you just caught the other guy in” and I said no what’s the point? He attempted to argue that true BJJ: martial artists know the names. But then I told him “you’re a brown belt and I’m just a sambo wrestler guy and I submit you pretty much anytime we roll. I don’t know all the names of the moves I do but I know how to do them. You know all the names of the moves but you can’t catch me in them. So who is the actual martial artist?” Complete silence and then a laugh and “good point”. I’ve seen more people like this with the emergence of popularity in MMA and BJJ. So many people who buy books to study the Gracies and their philosophies. What a waste of time - if your goal is to defend yourself or learn how to fight then you should spend all your time training the actual skills and not wasting time simping.
@@silveriver9 Never get why some people hate the Gracie family so much… I think they are the Most important family in terms of martial arts. Especially mixed martial arts 🤷🏽♂️

I never got Spotify until now. We all can gain from this interview. If we have problems or conflicts we can solve them on the mat and with the right mindset and technical abilities. Instead of giving in to hate, fear, and paranoia we can heal ourselves and our fears by meeting on the mat. We have to stop war, hate, and death. Once we fight each other we can know each other and that way we can build a true relationship that will expel the negative thoughts, emotions, and negative compulsions that have plaques us in humanity for so long.
There is no love without hate, no peace without war and no life without death. We can redirect the things we oppose but they will manifest elsewhere. War is in our blood. We can make things temporarily better or worse but we will never stop being the human animal. If you want to stop war and surface issues people have to first overcome things like desire, greed, jealously, insecurity.. It would be like expecting a cat to bark like a dog.
He's so right about how people don't try to figure out how to resolve their issues and just accept them as "this is how I turned out/this is the hand life dealt me". The whole world has become this.
I only accept that response if the person has tried for many many years. Time breaks you. But a lot of people try once and quit. It's crazy to me. Once you've done something past 5,7,10 times despite it being hard, you realize how unstoppable you are.
One of the first JRE episodes that I watched in it's entirety was the one with Rickson, the first one. I think I gonna watch this one too. The guy is a legend.
I always enjoy listening to this man he has such a calm demeanor and could narrate a peace audiobook, yet he knows more about life and martial arts then almost anyone and could put anyone to sleep.
You're absolutely right the years I spent training and martial arts I was both the strongest and then to lie and physically I've ever been in my life and made me a stronger better person all the way around I didn't fear I wanted to give up sometimes but I never did. However the 1 demon I have that's beating me down was my eating disorder and it's the same type of fear So thank you for this episode because it's helping me to understand things and recover
I need this I always have doubts in my head even though I put in the work when it comes to sparring my hands feel heavy and I’m like to scared to throw a punch I hate that feeling only way to get rid of it is spar more so hopefully one day I’ll be comfortable
Don't just spar more, get the biggest, toughest guy in your gym, the guy you're the most afraid of and tell him to just go as hard as he can, once you feel that fear creeping in, think about how that was Rickson against King Zulu and just keep going. Worst thing that could happen is you waking up never. soooooo just don't die and it's ez gg. also another thing that might help is, if you ever feel like the chaos is too much, focus on your breathing.
RICKSON TELLS THE BEST STORIES. IT'S LIKE EVERY STORY COULD BE A NEW KARATE KID MOVIE !! ALWAYS A MOREL LESSON , A PERSONAL VICTORY. ALWAYS ENLIGHTENING.
I met Rickson when I was 22 at a work event, kind and gentle dude…we had a convo about fighting, I was a huge Anderson Silva fan back then and I asked him what he thought about Silva and he said Silva sucked and knew nothing about fighting 😳
Today I’m pretty much at the lowest I’ve been in a long time. Hearing this didn’t shake me out of it, but I know I’ll remember this when I’m on a high and i think it will ease my next ebb
Love your content! Great clip as always! I would absolutely love to see you sit down with the independent musical artist named Sadistik - I feel like you two would get along so well & have some amazing conversations (basing this on what I know about Sadistik & watching other interviews you’ve had) - I hope to see it one day! Much love & respect Joe!
Rickson Gracie counted all sparring bouts as official fights and dodged Kazushi Sakuraba at all costs. He is still running 😂. Samurais don't run from opponents. Rickson ran from a real samurai named Kazushi Sakuraba.

I remember watching the 1st ufc 1 his brother was a master with using his sleeve to choke ppl out it was amazing watching a smaller guy smash all those big dudes
I would say that having schizophrenia and hearing voices gives me an edge in ignoring those negative voices because I have to. A lot of times I realize it's not my own voice but what I fear people are thinking about me. I have to only listen to the positive voices. If I can do it hearing voices screaming at me so can others.
Its tough not to care what people think about you, but we're all gonna be long gone in a 100 years time ,and no one is gonna remember a thing about us, good or bad...so who gives a shit.
And even if they were to remember you say even a thousands years from now, or a million years for that matter, it still doesn't get you out of the grave. It doesn't give you an extended time on the earth, alive at least. But you'll be here all right, back in the soil the stardust from which you came.
The best way to get rid of this is when your young like Floyd Mayweather did because everyone confronts these fears but it is easier when you are young just look at any baby how fearful they are when taking their first steps
Very good said , everything that this guy's is my way of thinking since I was just a kid and it's not just martial arts that give you this sense is in any way you look at it if it's got a discipline you learn that everything is mental just like you contorolling yourself around others .
It's the Mindset that Only a Few have Gone through. Literally they travel through HELL of their own Psyche and come out Sharp and Ridiculous Discipline. 🙏👍
Andrew Tate said, "Violence is spirituality," and you can clearly see how this guy's experience with it, through fighting and through battles in his mind, has really learned about himself.

Rickson Gracie counted all sparring bouts as official fights and dodged Kazushi Sakuraba at all costs. He is still running 😂
Thanks
"He spit a tooth" lmao!!!!!
Aint nothing to it but to do it!!! Onefoot in frontof the other!
best quote ever
Just have ball hair. You'll be okay.
That saying came to me one day while carrying granite countertops up flights of stairs. "Only one way to do it.. is to do it"
Just do ITTTTTT !!!!!
I put one foot in front of the other and I trip and fall every single time.
Enlightening! It would have been nice to know this when I was young!
I’ll just say this was amazing. True wisdom
I met Rickson when I was 22 at a work event, kind and gentle dude…we had a convo about fighting, I was a huge Anderson Silva fan back then and I asked him what he thought about Silva and he said Silva sucked and knew nothing about fighting 😳
And everyone says this guy is humble. 🙄
Today I’m pretty much at the lowest I’ve been in a long time. Hearing this didn’t shake me out of it, but I know I’ll remember this when I’m on a high and i think it will ease my next ebb
Very good lesson very wise
This man and his family are brilliant. Hoyce was incredible.
Very powerful
His advice in response to 6:35 should be shared to everyone.
Inspiring stuff 🙏🙏🙏
Love your content! Great clip as always! I would absolutely love to see you sit down with the independent musical artist named Sadistik - I feel like you two would get along so well & have some amazing conversations (basing this on what I know about Sadistik & watching other interviews you’ve had) - I hope to see it one day! Much love & respect Joe!
Good podcast. It seems excellence in any area improves one's life. No doubt with martial arts.
What an amazing time to be alive. Here we are taking advice from a legend!! For free!!
Love how he says Choo chitzoo
So epic
Lots of wisdom in this one.
This was very inspirational
Rickson is one of the GOATS!
Rickson needs to tell Kron to fight! Legendary bloodline.
He does fight lol
He’s been opening a gym in Montana after the one in Culver City closed down
@@manuelguzman7437 I know I meant because he hasn’t fought in a while and haven’t heard any news.
Rickson is not involved in Kron's life like that
Rickson Gracie counted all sparring bouts as official fights and dodged Kazushi Sakuraba at all costs. He is still running 😂
That was so real💯💪🏿 don’t lose faith 🙌🏿
Gonna go look for this fight now!
Whatever you ever pictured or thought was the embodiment of samurai, this is it
You've got to be kidding right? Samurais fought wars and killed people Rickson fought some cans a couple of times and never anyone significant. No
@@johnjordan6032 look up Bushidō, Samurai isn’t just unsheathing the katana
Rickson Gracie counted all sparring bouts as official fights and dodged Kazushi Sakuraba at all costs. He is still running 😂. Samurais don't run from opponents. Rickson ran from a real samurai named Kazushi Sakuraba.
@@silveriver9 ENOUGH TROLL, HOLY HELL, WHO DID YOU EVER FIGHT ?
Rickson is a fraud. Kazushi Sakuraba single-handedly exposed the multi-generational Gracie family. He called out Rickson but Rickson was smart enough to run and protect his fake record. Ever since then there have been no successful Gracie fighters, thanks to the legend Sakuraba.
I remember watching the 1st ufc 1 his brother was a master with using his sleeve to choke ppl out it was amazing watching a smaller guy smash all those big dudes
Thanks joe
Getting Spotify today for this!
I would say that having schizophrenia and hearing voices gives me an edge in ignoring those negative voices because I have to. A lot of times I realize it's not my own voice but what I fear people are thinking about me. I have to only listen to the positive voices. If I can do it hearing voices screaming at me so can others.
Its tough not to care what people think about you, but we're all gonna be long gone in a 100 years time ,and no one is gonna remember a thing about us, good or bad...so who gives a shit.
Don’t the meds help with the voices? Do you take them?
And even if they were to remember you say even a thousands years from now, or a million years for that matter, it still doesn't get you out of the grave. It doesn't give you an extended time on the earth, alive at least. But you'll be here all right, back in the soil the stardust from which you came.
Schizophrenia man. All i have to say is stay strong dude
I’ve always wondered if meditation can help with conditions like Schizophrenia. Have you ever tried it?
The best way to get rid of this is when your young like Floyd Mayweather did because everyone confronts these fears but it is easier when you are young just look at any baby how fearful they are when taking their first steps
wow brilliant video
Very good said , everything that this guy's is my way of thinking since I was just a kid and it's not just martial arts that give you this sense is in any way you look at it if it's got a discipline you learn that everything is mental just like you contorolling yourself around others .
Sounds like Goku getting excited to have Gohan fighting lol
That is the David Goggins mindset.
It's the Mindset that Only a Few have Gone through. Literally they travel through HELL of their own Psyche and come out Sharp and Ridiculous Discipline. 🙏👍
Awesome! Love this guy
Hallelujah!
You gotta love this new Outro!
Andrew Tate said, "Violence is spirituality," and you can clearly see how this guy's experience with it, through fighting and through battles in his mind, has really learned about himself.
Where’s Andrew for the viral buzz to show how legit he is
That was a very powerful JRE. Now I only have one opponent to defeat, not two.
