9 lessons that can be learned from the cells fight club

More often than not find fight club is not difficult. I once scored in a search engine "fight club in Minsk," looked at the reviews, looked for that better and closer to home. He went on trial training and after it already was not looking for anything. Yes, not all will be the same Octagon (octagonal cage in which battles take place according to the rules of mixed martial arts) but the main thing that there were guys who love and know how to fight, ready to learn something and teach them that they can themselves. Just these guys and taught me the following lessons.

1. Indeed there is no limit to perfection

I come to fight club, when he brought himself into shape and do not feel progress so loved the first Street Workout. The first visit I had one wish: that all this was over quickly. All around me got up some incredible things that I basically could repeat, but do not understand how you can not get tired of so many repetitions. I was exhausted after a workout.

Over time, I have observed the same response from all beginners. Admiring glances fell already on me as well. The fight club, I at least got something for what has come - the progress and improvement. Progress, which does not have borders.

2. Wherever you were, you have to show what you stand, and earn the respect

I went there a loner. It took six months before I was able to converse on equal terms with the best fighters of the club, with these veterans, which in the early days even approach had to be cautious. They also took the time to understand what I can do, see potential in me and take in your "circle".

Regardless of where you find yourself, you have to put yourself right, get treated with respect.

3. Learn to adapt to the situation, rather than memorize scripts

What you fights one-on-one with a professional fighter - already precarious situation. At least at first. Fight Club learns to find solutions to the problems that need to deal faster than they have time to appear. In this case, the standard schema, and scripts are not held: in a cage will not agree, and each new fighter offers new tactics to which have to adapt their own skills.

4. You still have plenty of time to start again

New techniques, new enemies, new circumstances, numerous injuries and recovery, relief and weight gain, unfamiliar tactics of warfare - those trends faced in the match time, even when it seems that nothing new is not You know.

5. We are not the ones who seem to

The fight club come really different people. From the neat office clerks to sullen freaks. The fight club man discovers the traits of his personality, which do not occur in everyday life. Externally, the evil and scary "monsters" fights without rules sometimes appeared tactful and courteous people, shriveled programmers eyes turned into ruthless soldiers.

Pumped can call itself any souffle.

Tyler Durden, the / f "Fight Club"

Often, just the guys who came to the club with the big biceps get a good bashing from seemingly far less impressive fighters. You look at all this and realize how deceptive is the appearance.

6. Learn to take a punch

Beats miss Muhammad Ali. Mike Tyson missed. Floyd Mayweather passed and Conor McGregor. You, too, will pass.

And it's not just a fight. Everything may not go smoothly. You will fall, break limbs, lose. It is an essential element of growth. So learn to take a punch. You hit and you can not stop it? Endure. You loyal friends? Endure. Problems at work? Endure and continue to seek a solution.

7. You are able to change yourself

Fight Club has changed me. It noticed all my friends. Lifestyle changes, changed their attitude to the people and things, to food, to himself. These changes have affected my relationships and success at work. I have changed - and changed for the better. The only way we can understand that this is indeed possible.

In addition, I have become more productive. I got involved in all this, and could not give up. I will say more: I got hooked on it. Besides the fights, I had to have time to work, I had a personal life, and some plans for the future. I had to become more efficient. I just had no choice.

8. Swings for more

You underestimate yourself too often. I know this because I experienced the same thing. "I am not fit for this", "do not fight for me," "the enemy is too strong," "this technique is too complex" - this will always pop up in the mind. The same thing at work, in the long term, in their personal lives. My advice: try. And when you start to receive, and it is sure to begin, you will realize that in vain underestimate themselves.

I'm the same as you. Just believe in yourself a little more.

9. There is no perfect moment

If I had not realized it, I still would not fight in fight club. Why? Because now I study, work, family, and "I am very busy." A more favorable moment than right now, it is not there. Its existence - is nothing more than another illusion.
