The Toughest Archetype in BJJ

I’m worried about these people.

BTW — did you know we have merch?

A few months ago, I made a post on Instagram about the different BJJ “archetypes”.

I’ll link that post at the end of this article, but the archetypes are as follows:

• The competitor

• The hobbyist

• The coach

• The self-defense guy

• The Super Duper Serious Hobbyist

Today, we’re talking about Super Duper Serious Hobbyists, why they’re unhappy, and what we can do it about.

Full disclosure, if you’re perfectly happy with your Jiu-Jitsu, this article isn’t for you. However, if you’re trying to be the best you can and just aren’t seeing results, this article might just be the thing you need to snap out of the funk.

See, really, today we’re talking about hobbies, success, happiness, and why Jiu-Jitsu will never be enough no matter how good you get.

Let’s dive in.
