    " learned more about life on these mats than I have at all my years in school."
    Man that's a good statement and so true. I come from a background in wrestling starting at age 5 and eventually becoming a 2x all american in college. All that hard work, defeats and suffering built me as a person more than years of school and college education. The human spirit needs tough grueling physical challenges to develop to its maximum potential I truly believe that. Sadly, I think too many people dont understand how important doing difficult psychical things is and they miss an opportunity to better their personhood.

    This is significant; not necessarily WHAT is said, but HOW he communicates. Here he accepts the duty in being onself and the beauty of "being ordinary" in the Universe/mankind. Yes. This is what I define as a martial artist. He is beyond the aggressive stage, extremely mature spoken. I would love to just be around this man or any of those men at this gym (his quality is the fruit of other good men in this gym). Congratulations to your black belt.

      Very well said. I only discovered Lex Fridman this week after his AGI discussions justifiably blew up the nerdier corners of the Internet. The admirable traits you describe -- transcending aggression, and his embrace of the "beauty of being ordinary" (as you eloquently put it) -- are evident in his podcasts. They are produced without ego -- it's not about him, it's about his guests and their ideas. He never asks "gotcha" questions, and eschews the typical "point/counterpoint" of click-baity internet debates in favor of nuanced conversations that go where they need to go, and take as long as they need to take. I like this guy.

    It’s heartbreaking to lose and the best advice anyone gave to me was, ‘If you’re a yellow belt, concentrate on being the best yellow belt out here and so on until you reach Dan grade.” It helped me, because competition was so hard, you’d cry in private if it didn’t go well. But Lex is correct, for I too learned more than just how to fight in the dojo.

Felt like he was force to give talks or something by his tone of voice, then 8 months later i've seen more personal achievements and more credibility and validity than i've seen in anyone one else (for the most part). Amazing dude keep it up
