More on mindset
I once separated a shoulder fighting an enraged man who had just stabbed another man in the temple with an ice pick. As my adrenaline began to subside after the guy was lying in the backseat of the police car, I realized I couldn’t move my left arm. Then I realized it was hurting more and more every passing second. By the time I got back to the station, I was in agony.
Making the pain even more intense was that not only did the injury happen five minutes before my shift ended, the next day I was to defend my title in forms at the Northwest Nationals. No way was that going to happen; no way was I even going to leave my sofa.
After several weeks of physical therapy, my arm still ached but I could move it fairly well. So I asked my physical therapist if he thought I would be able to compete in another tournament three weeks away. He was a martial artist himself and understood. He said that I could, but it would likely set my recovery back a few weeks. If that was okay with me, he said it was okay with him. I thought about it for a couple days and then after deciding I would do it, I changed my mind. No plastic trophy was worth going through the pain and therapy again. However, for a day or so I at least knew I could have done it. It would hurt but I knew the adrenaline rush of competition would block the pain and give me the “juice” I needed to perform.
