when you realize that nothing will change in the leadership do you tap out and move on or continue trying to be a good leader to your crew who deserves it that’s definitely a question that it requires a little bit more information to give a good answer to you know because what’s the situation can you be is there an opportunity that you could become the leader long term because that totally changes the outlook right if you could if you could do a good job and step up and move on to a more senior leadership position where you could take even more turn turns or take even more care of the crew well then that’s a positive thing and it might be worth hanging out for also is it a complete dead end like is there no possibility it’s a family-owned business and all the senior leadership is related to the family and you’re not part of the family and you never have a chance mmm that that changes the prospect I mean obviously that’s like okay well maybe it’s not worth taking another if you leave can you leave where you can give open the opportunity for other people to go where you’re going right which is not a good thing in terms of you know you’re not being very loyal you’re being anti loyal you’re being unloyal disloyal if you do that but if the leadership that you’re working for isn’t taking care of the people then you you have to have some loyalty to the people you work with so there’s that I think that you you you have to assess everything that’s going on in the situation which which is not evident in this one quick question I would say this – like don’t blindside your boss right that’s something that if you’re gonna leave leave on good terms explain to what’s going on also that can be an opportunity to start a conversation about how the leadership could improve a lot of times people don’t want to change anything until it really smacks them in the face and one of the things that smacks them in the face is when one of their good people comes in and says hey look I I’m gonna leave because of these reasons and again you don’t on the exit interview or on those conversations you don’t just drop dime and make everyone make it out to be this horrible situation say here’s some things that I’ve noticed here’s some things that I would want to change here’s the direction that I see the company going and this is the direction I think it should be going and for these reasons decided I’m gonna go try you know try my hand somewhere else I think if you’d be open like that it can start some good conversations and possibly you could make some progress or possibly you could confirm your suspicions which are no one wants to change no one wants to do anything different and if that’s the case and you realize it’s a dead end for you yeah you got to take that option you can’t beat your head against the on the forty you know you can beat your head against the wall forty seven times on the forty eight time it’s like okay I need to do something different mmm so pay attention to that next what can we all learned from tenacious d that most people overlook critical question it is a critical question but there’s actually a real a real legitimate answer to that and that is that tenacious d who’s a very funny group of individuals Jack Black is one of them who’s a musician and a comedian and actor and Kyle Gass is the other member what’s what’s great about them is they don’t take themselves too seriously and I think that’s the lesson to learn is don’t take yourself too seriously have some fun and don’t take yourself too seriously there it is yeah and I would say there’s difference between taking yourself seriously and being serious so you know how like being serious is like okay you’re not letting necessarily joking all the time but taking yourself too seriously it’s like you know if like a joke is made about you or you can’t laugh at yourself or that kind of stuff yes different so you can be serious all the time you’d be a serious person and not take yourself to see that it’s true and that’s a good that that’s fine that’s it the person you don’t want to be is the person that takes themselves too seriously all the time yeah that’s a problem so inversely I guess could you be to like could you be a very not serious person but take yourself too seriously could you be a very serious no could you be a very like jokey not serious person it’s like that’s the person that you can dish it out but you can’t yeah yeah yeah been skinned type guys yeah yeah kind of like you right a little bit yeah yeah see if I see what you did there I guess next question unless there’s anything more from Tenacious D no no maybe some good songs we can inspirati alright that’s from today I gotta give a warning that language is not appropriate for kids with tenacious d ignores some of the subject matter so be careful with that yeah next question you mentioned you rarely pick play closed guard rarely is this just a personal preference I would say that it is somewhat a personal preference right because there’s definitely some people that intentionally play closed guard that’s their game but at the same time in order to attack even from the closed guard most the time you have to open your guard so therefore your guard is open so open guard yeah that’s kind of what I do skip the step of opening my guard but you’ve been in people’s guard they have really good close guards yes yeah it’s not fun no and that’s why I try not to let people close their guard yeah cuz you don’t forget that from happening yeah there’s people that have really really solid psycho closed guards so I’m not anti closed guard and some people are great at it my personal preference is to play more open guard yeah yeah it’s one of those things where close guard if you’re not a person who always plays close guard or whatever it can be just something that you kind of use for specific situations you know like if you’re trying to maybe breed regain some energy or something like that you know rest a little bit or even in like a self defense like a striking scenario like a close garden mind yeah Mike I know the closed guard is you know there’s no doubt that closed guard has viable purpose yeah and it’s good and I do use it I don’t use it a lot yeah yeah and if you’re a taller lanky guy clothes might be little short fat legs that you know clothed my clothes guard is like my toes are touching depending on the size of the person yeah and actually where it stems from if you went to the root of it is stems from foot locks so lose your guard when your guard opens you’re vulnerable and that there’s a moment where you’re vulnerable and if you’re training with guys that have really good four locks that’s not a good situation so that’s where I started not closing my guard because it was always that transition period where my feet were vulnerable so I just stopped closing my garden kept it open and moved my fit feet towards me to keep them a little bit safer
