1.) Grappling takes time.

I have been training ju-jitsu and grappling for over 10 years. Yet, I still consider myself a decent grappler. My path has beeb slightly different then a pure BJJ or submission grappling path, but still... if you are truly dedicated to becoming an amazing grappler, you need to invest your time into learning.

Yes, I agree. the best thing is to just keep practicing. I practiced like crazy when I was in high school doing grappling, Ju-Jitsu, and wrestling for 4 years, it takes time but its fun when it clicks in and you'll see yourself winning in most of the matches. Rear-naked choke rules baby (YEAHHHH!!) my specialty. I forgot most of this though when I went to college. MISS IT SO FREAKIN MUCH!!
