Empathy

Sympathy is feeling pity and sorrow for someone else’s misfortune. There is no sorrow, we put them in this situation.

Empathy is putting yourself in their shoes and experiencing as if their situation was your own.

Therefore this competition for dominance encourages you to increase their discomfort.

Adversity- Doing hard things makes us grow.

• Provide the opportunity for your opponent to grow.

• Dominance is the game we are playing, so get on with the game.

Shift- See the grapple from their perspective

• Change your perspective to perceive what they don’t want you to do, then do that thing.

• Don’t just feel your balance, feel their balance.

Empathize with your opponents fears and push on that lever. No Sympathy for those you wish to dominate.
