G'day, call me Val
I saw some of Richie's stuff on youtube and im impressed,
after reading the cage to street PDF I thought Id like to learn more about Streetfightsecrets philosopy, that impressed me too
well a bit about me im a 20 year old guy that's got a history of a lot of Martial sport, which I sucked at and throughly had the crap kicked out of me in a real fight situation, so I found a system called Budo Jitsu, which I enjoyed and actualy taught me skills that work in real life
and I also managed to turn my short skinny body into something that looked nice while I was at it
however, ive allways struggled with confidence ever since I was a kid (I was born 4 months premature and I suffered a lot of problems with my lungs) and had some learning dificulties, while none of those things affect me nowdays I still am in the frame of mind that I am more limited then any other bloke, now in my head I know thats not the case but deep down I got that nagging doubt
Budo-jitsu taught me a lot about how real fights start from the first eye conact and I now consider myself able to handle most idiots Australia throws at me on a friday night
but while it gave me skills I was and still am racked by issues of confidence, you know
the whole, im not strong enough why isnt this technique working when everyone else can do it blah blah, and im utterly hopeless in verbal arguments, I know full well if I learn to knock those on the head id stop a lot of the fights I get into before they happen
Im interestied in the fight pycology DVD's as well as the verbal agrument ones as no system ive ever done has taught me how to boost my confidence or how to handle verbal arguments in a way that doesnt make me seem like some sort of a robot
if you guys have got any tips please post
looking forward to meeting you all and chating with you
cheers lads
Val
