Olympian Jimmy Pedro, finishing up filming<br />
on our new project Underground Gripfighting 2.0</p>
<p>Arrived home on Thursday on the 29th at 11:45pm<br />
and turned right around and headed to the airport<br />
at 3:30am for a 5:15am flight for Cleveland, Ohio.</p>
<p>I am now in Cleveland, Ohio assisting in the training<br />

<p>There are a lot of things that I am&#8230;. but wrong is not one of them. Okay, that&#8217;s not true. </p>
<p>I&#8217;m wrong alot. But I really don&#8217;t believe that I&#8217;m wrong on this. </p>
<p>But not matter what the case, I&#8217;m loving the &#8220;internet/blog volleyball video game&#8221; that <a href="http://drannmaria.blogspot.com/2012/01/everybody-has-their-own-dream-sequel.html">Dr. AnnMaria</a> and I have going on here. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I remember talking with one of my mentors<br />
back in 2002 when I was making my second<br />
run at the Olympic Games and he asked me:</p>
<p>&#8220;Are your coaches full time Judo coaches<br />
or do they do it as a hobby?&#8221;</p>
<p>I asked him, &#8220;Why do you ask that?&#8221;</p>
<p>He replied, &#8220;Because if they do it as a hobby,<br />
they are going to treat your career as if it is<br />
a hobby and there&#8217;s nothing worse than you<br />
being serious and your coach not.&#8221;</p>
<p>Man that point hit home.</p>
<p>This is what causes people to use the following<br />
phrases:</p>
<p>- It doesn&#8217;t matter if you win or lose, it&#8217;s how you<br />
play the game</p>
<p>- Don&#8217;t worry&#8230;.. you&#8217;ll do better next time</p>
<p>- Hey, you tried your best and THAT&#8217;S what&#8217;s<br />
important.</p>
<p>- Don&#8217;t sweat it champ&#8230;. we&#8217;ll get &#8216;em next year.</p>
<p>- Just put two hands on the gi and play judo</p>
<p>These are the types of phrases that people<br />
say when their investment in YOUR career<br />
is incongruent with YOUR investment in your<br />
career.</p>
<p>=====================<br />
Sometimes You Have To<br />
Get Some Professional<br />
Services<br />
=====================</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s just keep it, as the young folks say,<br />
REAL!!!</p>
<p>You have no hope at all of being a professional<br />
without acting like one.</p>
<p>One of the major things that I see in the sport<br />
of judo is that the people do not do the<br />
things that normal professionals do in professional<br />
sports.</p>
<p>Case in point.</p>
<p>How many judo matches how you competed in<br />
where you DID NOT HAVE YOUR COACH<br />
review your video from your matches and provide<br />
you with feedback?</p>
<p>If your answer is more than &#8220;1&#8243; that&#8217;s too many</p>
<p>How many practices have you attended that<br />
aren&#8217;t taped or recorded?</p>
<p>If you answer is more than &#8220;5&#8243; that&#8217;s too many.</p>
<p>LOOK!!!!</p>
<p>How can you fix your mistakes and errors<br />
without immediate feedback?!?!?!?!</p>
<p>====================<br />
WHAT I DO IS NOT MAGIC<br />
====================</p>
<p>People see the way that I have improved<br />
the careers of some of my fighters<br />
quickly and rapidly and think that I<br />
have some type of secret.</p>
<p>Well, I do. It&#8217;s called Deliberate Practice<br />
and HOURS AND HOURS OF VIDEO<br />
study.</p>
<p>I DO THE THING THAT ALL OF THESE<br />
OTHER COACHES DON&#8217;T DO.</p>
<p>And if they do actually do it, they cannot<br />
do it like I can because I don&#8217;t have 20,<br />
30 or 40 different people to do it for.</p>
<p>I keep a small group of clients and help<br />
them achieve success.</p>
<p>Right now I want to do for you what<br />
I do for some of my clients.</p>
<p>Please allow me to review your video.</p>
<p>Watch this video and fill out the survey<br />
below and let me provide you with the<br />
professional service that you need and<br />
DESERVE for all the of the hard work<br />
that you do.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Seriously, I want to review and critique one of your judo<br />
videos, matches or practices.</p>
<p>However, I need your help in making that happen.</p>
<p>You see, I am still in the beginning stages of &#8220;relaunching&#8221;<br />
and transferring over the majority of my online presence to<br />
<a href="http://www.drrhadiferguson.com/">http://www.DrRhadiFerguson.com</a> and since then I&#8217;ve had<br />
an area for Video Review with a video review form on there<br />
for quite some time, and while I have received some video<br />
and some matches have been submitted, I would like to<br />
receive more information from you to really make it beneficial<br />
to you.</p>
<p>So here&#8217;s what I&#8217;ve done for you. I&#8217;ve created a new Judo<br />
Video Submission survey that will help me really understand<br />
your goals for your judo career and aspirations in the sport.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.drrhadiferguson.com/video-review-page">http://www.drrhadiferguson.com/video-review-page</a></p>
<p>With this detailed information, we can really help give<br />
you some solid direction in order to help you achieve<br />
your goals.</p>
<p>So if you want to be considered for a site review, then<br />
go through this survey and fill it out as completely as<br />
possible, especially if you&#8217;ve submitted a site in the<br />
past and haven&#8217;t been chosen.</p>
<p>The more thorough you are, the more likely you are to<br />
be chosen and the more likely you&#8217;ll be to get the<br />
feedback that you need to help your business.</p>
<p>So submit your judo video today:</p>
