QUOTES:
“Martial arts gives you tools. The tools are connection, base, deflection, strategy, emotional control, the capacity for you to use visualization, and other elements.” [5:44]
“So just being prepared, just being talented is not enough. Just being able to focus and be strategically correct is not enough. I have to have the spirituality to say today is a great day to be in a battle.” [9:04]
“I was accepting death in order to be comfortable in hell.” [9:28]
“I noticed my worst enemy at this point was my own mind, playing tricks on me. It tells me I don't have enough, tells me I was tired, tells me that I’m [gonna lose]. So my mind was completely against my purpose.” [14:24]
“I cannot be just a jiu jitsu teacher, I had to be a psychologist. Because I have to approach a guy who stands insecure in a different way, than approach a guy who's just lazy and completely off.” [36:08]
“The real learning of your breathing system is to learn how to maximize your hyperventilation, to cope with the activities you plan to do.” [39:17]
“If you try to hide the emotions from yourself, and try to show everybody you're okay, you're just making a patch which is not working. So I have to feel weak and completely vulnerable.” [41:29]
“Today my day is based on what I can do best to make my best day today.” [44:41]
“What was my biggest lost becomes my biggest sign of how I should do to have a happy life” [45:54]
“Nobody could make me what I am if I was not focused and passionate about it.” [47:42]
“I was seeking for things that were giving me chills and emotions and I love to play with nature, because nature is unbreakable, nature is stronger.” [52:22]
“That sparring session can be very positive for some warriors, but can be jeopardizing a lot of guys were not designed to fight” [58:29]

What’s your definition of a Warrior Mindset?
Blood Diamonds : Dearest ! are you hard enough !

OUTLIERS / INFLUENZERS : GOD´S DOVES!
Freedoom is not free : the exit fee is a throw under of another : a la gangmember : in revelation of hermeticas !! to become "stars/gods" golden rule book of put them to sleep and then surprise them with it´s reveleations or its apologetics ... the louder of lip-service a smacking (gaslighting) the greater success of a throw under ... and your "Freedom" however the "heathens" the non-player a most hated group some don´t go down as martyr, Scapegoat firecracker for it´s excuses and justifications of the left/right dribble for God´s doves ...

reclaim the Scapegoat or be lost in fake is.Real and Love is not pretending!
Taking massive bold action on the thing you know you need to do but the little whisper keeps you from doing because you believe it to be true .
Been comfortable with the fact that what you believe today may not be what you believe tomorrow. We get so stuck on our identity that we believe our beliefs cant change but they can it's all part of growth.
This man is a genius...at 69 Jiu Jitsu saved my life.I lost my daughter and was in a dark place. Thank you Mr. Gracie.
You started at 69? That's awesome!
God bless you.
🙏 ❤
Put your gi on James
God bless you
Found bjj at the lowest point of my life and can say with complete certainty, it saved my life. Much love
Amen
I just started. It's one of the best decisions I've made. My biggest regret is that I didn't start years ago.
I lost my son in 2019...I understand completely how Gracie felt. And my attention has become very present to any situation and has extended to helping others through grief. I am grateful for the time I spent with my son. Thank you sir for sharing your journey. Many blessings.
I completely agree my daughter sadly passed away in 2016. Hope everything is well and keep up the good work..
I am so sorry for your lost :(
sorry for your loss...
@@dan.h3335 sorry for both of your losses I hope you are strong

Probably one of the most prestigious guests ever, none other than the legend himself. Wow!
Boom! Killed it!!!
Absolutely
So true! Thank you for sharing this! :)
He was a terrible bully growing up
Yeah, agreeing on this...
Rickson Gracie and Wim Hof were on parallel paths learning the power of breathwork and the cold. He’s so inspirational. Thanks for having him on!
I wouldn’t say “parallel” paths … Parallel line never meet, never intersect. That’s not the accurate way to describe Wim and Gracie.
When I was a kid living in ex USSR I watched this man fighting on a pirate VHS tape copies. Rickson brought a strategy and mindfulness to the totally brutal competition without any rules practically. It was a revolution! A true legend! Thank you for this guest!
Pirated VHS copies in the former USSR. Damn, that's a childhood.

One of the greatest moments of my life was attending a Rickson Gracie seminar in Richmond, Virginia at the LINXX Academy over 20 years ago. I learned more in 2 days than I’d learned in all the years prior ❤
Rickson is an extraordinary human being.
Everyone knows Rickson is great. But when you learn more about him and his Heritage and his experiences and his constant contributions to the world .. you shake your head and take a deep breath and realize.. we have this great privilege of learning from this great man and legend. Rickson is the best
Most people really underestimate the power of breathing exercises. Its understandable - it is hard to believe that something so simple can have such a profound effect
Exactly!
@Owi Owi I agree with you on most of your statements, I believe a vegan diet is healthier than one that includes meat, but unfortunately we can't change thousands of years of evolution, evolution where our ancestors were fed with meat now our system depends of meat to grow ok, yes i understand that nowadays most products are full of garbage like hormones, but the proof of what I'm saying is that I have met many vegan people and none of them look healthier than those who eat meat, most of those people look weak and fragile.
I was a skinny guy when I grew up and always wanted to gain some weight and while at military boarding school I had a friend who used to read and know a lot about diets and used to tell me how some veggies were full of protein he even traded his meat meals for those veggies, during our 3 years at school together I never saw him gaining more than 2-3 kgs of muscle or mass I personally kept my diet with meat, lots of tortillas, and potatoes, and that helped to go from 59 kg to 82 kg during the same 3 years, not a single pound of fat, ever since I kept one rule in my life, for example while going to the gym and I have some skinny or chubby trainers coming to me and telling how to do and exercise, "don't ever listen to someone smaller (I dont mean this in the de-meaner way) than myself", same rule applies to diets, but this is just my personal opinion and experience, I did tried going vegetarian but never worked for me couldn't mantain my desire weight.
@Owi Owi dude I took a look at your CZcams playlists, if your vegan diet is so good why does your life and health look so miserable? Why Your playlists are filled with so many "how to cure" this and that mental and physical diseases? Or Is that your so called "education"?
You are the clear example of what I've been talking about, people that supposedly know everything about nutrition but their own health is clearly the worst.
I can only feel sorry for you dude, seriously get some professional help.
Have you read James Nestor's book "Breath"? And Patrick McKeown's book "The Breathing Cure" & "The Oxygen Advantage"?
@Owi Owi but why does meat taste so good then if we are not supposed to eat it?
I started reading “Breathe” last week. I was drawn to it to learn more mental, spiritual and physical resilience as a single parent entrepreneur. It’s riveting, inspiring, and chock full of insights related to mental transcending challenges and embracing this moment. So happy to see Rickson here. Fantastic interview!!
*Most people sit around and wait for inspiration, just some rare people get up and get to work.*
*I may not know you personally, but I believe in you that you will succeed!* 🙏
I am so glad I watched this today, I needed it
He is my greatest martial art role model. He took fighting to an whole other level.
This is absolutely amazing. I literally just finished Rickson's book, "Breathe", today, then I found this. Hearing Rickson speak about his experiences directly is so powerful after hearing the book first. Wow.
Thank you, Rickson, and Tom Bilyeu!

Have an amazing day! 💜
What a beautiful soul with great wisdom I enjoyed listening to his story heart warming love and good energy to all the beautiful souls out there 💙💚💜💥✌
One of the most amazing people on the planet. I've had the pleasure and honor of training with a few members of the Gracie family, they were all amazing people (in their own right), but Rickson, he's just all heart.... It's one of my biggest dreams to sit and talk to him (not to mention roll, that would be just... incredible!)... Some people (me amongst them) "Rickson IS Jiu Jitsu, and Jiu Jitsu is Rickson)...
@@kingkpin100 thank for sharing thats amazing peace Love and prosperity to you ✌💜💌
Rickson Gracie, the man with balls of steel, a heart of gold and discipline like an endless sky, what an amazing guy🤙🏻
Lost my dad Last month. And definitely jiu jitsu is my healing. Pain is still there cause how we ended 😢 but I’m finding how to cope and deal with uncomfortable emotions because of jiu jitsu
This interview was awesome, Mr Rickson Gracie My Condolences To You, Your Wife And Your Family On The Passing Of Your Son, Much Respect To The Gracie Clan. I grew up in the 80's-90's you wasn't just a Martial Artist, your a real Honorable Dude. So Glad Your Still Living Well! 1 luv
Such an incredible interview. One of my favorite episodes. I hung on to his every word. Rickson is a true warrior in every sense of the word. I was so inspired... especially by the opening fight story where he could have easily hurt his opponent but chose a more graceful approach.
I had the great honor to have met his son. it was in Tampa, Florida in the 90s, maybe 96. Rickson and his son showed up unannounced and rolled with us for over an hours. Rockson was 14...Amazing technique. Amazing kid. I have a great picture of that day, the six of us, lined up. Amazing guest. Thank you Tom.
Rockson became my good friend in high school. We both went to the same continuation school. He introduced me to the back bone of my company. I’m a private self defense instructor and I’m grateful to have known and trained with Rickson and Rockson. RIP Rockson. We had so many great times together. 🙏🏽🙏🏽👍🏽
I love Gracie BJJ. This was one of my absolute favorite guests. Thank you Tom, for having so many great people on your show.
Great job Tom of listening and letting Rickson share all his wisdom!
Beyond being an incomparable champion, Master Gracie is a truly great teacher.
As a Yoga breathing teacher, I can tell by taking one look at Tom that, above all else, he needs to learn how to breathe. (This observation is supported in a number of other interviews in which Tom talks about the importance of getting plenty of sleep.)
Master Gracie brought up the importance of breath twice; when Tom showed no interest, he effortlessly went with whatever direction Tom set.
I am totally awestruck by this man. Totally awestruck.
The fighter he’s talking about is called Zulu, a self made fighter, nobody taught him how to fight. He is living in poverty since years. He needs recognition, and help out of extreme poverty, please to the Gracies to help him!!
Wow, over 450 fights and undefeated. Don’t mess. Another great interview!
You must be joking.he had 11 fights against useless opponents,the rest were bjj matches and just practice.Hes an incredible grappler and I even was at several of his seninars but im not impressed with his nonsense record or the example he set.
The best interview ever. Amazing guy. Rickson the legend. Watched him when I was a kid. Grande campeao.👍
He’s a great Brazilian master. The combination of the mystical wisdom and techniques precision.
Yessss!! So happy Tom interviewed an important figure in jiu jitsu. There’s so much to learn from him and from the sport in general
This is the best all time interview that I have ever witness this show. So many different aspects of life was touched. My biggest take away is that strength is always revealed in adversity!! So always remember not to run from a challenge but go call it out and look for it.
Learning Jiu-jitsu is one thing but to master his mindset is another level of black belt.
I have never heard such a powerful message in my life. It felt as if every word he spoke changed me...as if he was actually able to speak to my soul. I've never felt so I'm tune....like this is exactly what I needed to hear exactly when I needed to hear it. It's a level of enlightenment I've never witnessed/felt. It just made sense to my head, to my heart and to the parts of me that I rarely even let myself access. Thank you Master Rickson you have lightened my life today. I only hope I can start to follow the knowledge I have just attained. 🤗
I bought the book at Amazon and it is already a #1 beat seller 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻💖🌹
Life has a tendency to provide a person with what they need in order to grow. Our beliefs, what we value in life, provide the roadmap for the type of life that we experience. 🔥
My Maste i had the privileged to train jiu-jitsu with Rickson for few years in los angeles California. Great Master.
“ My own mind playing tricks on me” That is an awesome statement! Wow is that the truth!
Parabéns Rickson love your overall (life/fighting) approach brah!
I been in Jiu Jitsu for a few years now. He's an absolute legend i love this!
“Callous your mind” - David Goggins
14:25 ”my mind was completely against my purpose" - I've been there. This is why we must master our mind or else become a slave to it.
Rickson Gracie.One if the best of all-time.
Thank you! Tom thank you for bringing such incredible person! Thank you for providing all the important information such as the book name and where to connect with this incredible, amazing wise man❤
Tom, this was one of your best interviews ever. "His" life lessons are lessons that everyone can learn and especially those that are in business.
Him not quitting in those situations where his life could have ended is amazing. Him going home and being rolled up in the carpet so he would know how to deal with certain situations in competition was a learning lesson for me.
Thank you for such a great guest & interview!
“Windows of opportunity in a fight. Genius. If in tune able to seize these small windows and hence seize victory over defeat. 🧠⚔️
The legendary Gracie Warrior himself 💯👊🏾 love the episode 💫💫💫
The speed of his ability to strategize and clarity on his purpose is amazing.
If you're reading this I'm praying something amazing happens for you today. 🙏🏻❤
You’re absolutely gorgeous Mandy
Thanks
Thank you Mandy and same to you!
Rickson Gracie is the GOAT FOR REAL FOR REAL!!!!!
This was probably one of my fav , I was listening to the podcast and so intrigued to see his facial expressions. What an honorable man
Incredible person. Master Rickson forever!!!
Rickson Gracie had me enlightened excellent you don’t get this in school. If children had people like this we wouldn’t have suicide. “Lungs are connected to heart and mind”.
What a powerful message. Inspirational, real, motivational. Thank you!
Amazing and inspiring ! I am also Brazilian and so proud of this family 🙏🏻💖🌹
Rickson Gracie is one of the greatest men to ever live.
A huge example of extreme hyperbole.
We love master Rickson, thank you... for everything.
Very Inspiring man in Jiu-jitsu and his values in life. God bless you 🙏 Rickson and thank you for everything! And many thanks to Tony for the great interview 👍
this man is a living legend and his new book is filled with wisdom, read in 3 days
Amazing you can connect with his warrior spirit even from just listening to him talk_thank you for bringing an amazing guest!!🤩🙏🏾
I'm happy to see Rickson in a good place in his mind and heart. I was concerned for him since the departure of Rockson.
I just want to say thank you to Tom, Lisa and all the people on this amazing show. I love listening to every guests story and taking aspects and applying them to my life. Thank you all for sharing.
Same here ♥️ I’ve learnt a lot from them.
@@shelby3755 ❤
Rickson was my Jiu Jutsu teacher up until Rockson passed away. Best JiuJitsu teacher of all time. Incredible man 👨. Very kind person. When he would come into the JiuJitsu school ~ Rickson would shake hands 🙌 with the first person he seen then work his way around the room shaking everyone 🤚. Made you feel like 👍🏻 you was his family. His JiuJitsu was second to none. He was the best. Glad to share time and space with the man on the JiuJitsu Matt. Learned more about life from him. Miss Rickson Gracie a lot. In fact I miss him everyday! God Bless Rickson Gracie and his family!
Rockson Gracie was un~believable at the age of 16 years ~ I watched him go through MMA fighters like 👍🏻 a hot knife through butter 🧈 . I have nothing but blessed memories of the master Rickson Gracie and his family. I used to travel 2 hours on Saturday to watch him teach his children in private classes at his Pacific palisades school. I learned Gracie JiuJitsu from the best. God bless Rickson Gracie and his family.
What an extraordinary Man. Being 68 and after having read so many books, watching so many motivational videos and more. I have leaned so much more from this Wonderful Man : Thank You Rickson and Tom for this wonderful interview.
Rickson is such an amazing legendary warrior
Legacy topman... morals matter more...great human
Tom Bilyeu and Rickson Gracie?? This is a dream come true!
Thank you Tom for another great episode with the LEGEND Rikson
This man understands martial arts as it was intended and how it applies to life!
This is real gold!!!
Thank you for your wisdom Rickson Gracie!!!!🙏🙏🙏
“Breathe” one of the most inspirational books I’ve ever read.
Met Rickson at a seminar early 90’s. He was as much a gentleman then as he is now.
“I was expecting/accepting death in order to be comfortable in hell.” WOW!! My soul felt that statement.
Ok, let me get back to enjoying this richness…
Great interview Tom! It is wonderful to see you being interviewed here Rickson Gracie. Legend! What you said about feeling yourself deeply. The direct connection between the brain and the heart is fascinating. It it such a gift yet a powerful tool that you have mastered. Amazing. My uncle was Jujitsu world champion many moons ago - Paul Lloyd -Davies. Do you remember him? I remember him breaking a brick in half when I was six, at the dinner table. ;.P. Look after yourself. May you continue to be blessed.
"And I notice my worst enemy at this point was my own mind, playing tricks on me. It tell me I don't have enough, tell me I tired, tell me I gonna lost --
So my mind was COMPLETELY against my purpose. And I felt like I could not let this happen, EVER. So after that fight I make a statement in my spiritual and my mind; I said 'I'm not going to quit anymore. I prefer to die than think I have to quit.' "
Mind over matter every time!
"My mind was completely against my purpose and I felt that I could never let this happen to me ever"
The best channel 🙏, thank you so much for this interesting conversation Tom!
The MAN , Myth, THE LEGEND !!!!!
Such an inspiring interview! Thank you guys! 🙏🏻💞
To be happy is to represent your family... i love that!
Absolutely beautiful. Just what I needed to hear.
I met Rickson in Chicago 1992, two day seminar's. Great experience,this was before there was ever an UFC. Years later I was lucky to train and learn from Carlson Gracie Sr. Both these masters were my greatest influences in jiu-jitsu and also life,Thank You for your blessings...
One of the most special persons that I have ever met in my life was Rickson Gracie. great interview.
Inspirational, one of the best, if not the best episode. Thank you both 🙏
This interview needs more hits. This guy is an absolute legend in the MMA world.
9:10 "I was accepting death to be comfortable in hell".
That's incredibly powerful.
This is priceless!! Thank you for bringing one of my idols 🙏
That was incredible
I could listen to this interview forever
Thank you, Tom! For bringing us a great man like Rickson
Unbelievable content ❤
Absolutely breathtaking.♡ and inspiring.
How can there be ANY downvotes? Such a great guest and a great interview from Tom. Better than I would have expected from Tom, and I expect always a great interview. Someone mentioned one of the most prestigious guests ever here - I agree.
they the ones that lost against him
One of the greatest men to ever live. RICKSON
