Today we are on site at a brand new facility in Newport Beach called Gigakig. And we are sitting down with the founder of Gigakikig, Gigacete, and he is known as one of the world's foremost expert strikers, a UFC legend, a multi-world champion kickboxer and karate specialist. This guy is an absolute ninja and one of the most humble people you will ever meet. is welcome, the one, the only, Gigatechicatsi. Welcome to another episode of coffees. Thanks for having.

Giga, it's a pleasure. It's an honor to hang out with you. You're such a special human being, a very, very humble guy. I'm very impressed with your new dojo. It's beautiful, and you're attracting some of the world's best talent. Now, I like to open up every single episode, the same way I ask everybody, what's your morning routine? Oh.

Morning routine is waking up, jumping in a shower, obviously. Then making the coffee, preparing the breakfast, which most of the time is very limited. And preparing my bag and heading towards the gym. That's pretty. That's when I'm in a camp. It also depends on timing. Sometimes I'm mixing up with my kid to drop one of them at school, depends time. And yeah, always heading towards the gym.

Yeah, you don't need a crazy morning routine when your whole life is training. Yeah. Yeah. I skipped the supplement as well because when I'm doing the supplements, it's not just one or two. it's pretty much like the couple of glass, full glass of different type of the vitamins. Yeah. I mean, I'm sure your supplement stack is pretty intense. Oh, yeah.

You got to be on time and do multiple times per day. Most of the time when I'm in a camp, I really follow that plan. If I'm not in a camp, because I'm all, I live in a camp. You know, like, that's something that I've been doing since I was little kid, four or five years old. And always had the tournaments and competition. I was preparing for some tournaments or the fights. So you're four years old? Since I was four or five years old.

I stepped playing in a karate dojo, and that's how I started, yeah. Yeah, I mean, like, I was just talking to your doctor here. He was like, yeah, did you see what Georgian kids? look like as kids, they're all ripped. Every single kid. I'm like, yeah, you know, that's what RFK is trying to do to America now. You know, trying to bring America back to how we looked in the 60s.

You know, in the JFK era. It's like you guys are already there in the Georgian era now. It's like all the kids are competitive, they're athletes. And we see it now in UFC. There's multiple fighters coming out of Georgia. Yeah, Georgia is doing so good in UFC. It was just a matter of time. And I'm glad I had to do my part to help that little flow to come up.

Here we are. We got two champions right now at the moment one, but yeah we're only like three million people and it's insane how much of the mixed martial martial arts is loved inside the country and how all the new generation are involved in martial arts. It's amazing. And I think you've been a big contributor to that, you know, so put them on the map as the first official. I think I did little part.

Yeah. God bless you for that. Let's jump into it. Now, you've been in martial arts now for 30 years. That's crazy. I mean, over 30 years. Yeah. Now, you know, who were you?

before the UFC like what what was life like before the spotlight before the center stage before you know the notoriety and the fame and the you know all the following etc so I signed in your I signed with the UFC 2019 2018 I had the contender series chance to get to UFC so I already had some relationship with them and Until then, that was like 2018, 19 and I came here first time in 2014 just to check it out and 2015 I moved here. So I spent like three years working really, really hard, really tough to get to the UFC. And while I was in these years I was fighting the kickboxing, the biggest stage.

show called Glory. I was headlining the shows in Madison Square Garden, in Staple Center, in multiple different areas, different states in the biggest kickboxing show. Then I was invested all the money into my grappling, wrestling, to get smaller steps to make it to the UFC. Because all that was the very necessary. to get to USC.

Yeah. The UFC, even you are the, I was like ranked number one featherweight kickboxer and I left that show called Glory. And UFC won't sign you straight

if you don't have some experience of MMA. Even kickboxing and makes MMA so close to each other is like all different sport and you have to be ready for that. You have to have a couple of fights on the record. And it's funny that I was fighting one day on that show, like the biggest show in kickboxing,

and three, four days after I would come and do some local show. You're a nobody in MMA. Yeah, in MMA, they all knew me, all the fighters. But public-wise, you know, the people they didn't know. So I had to prove it that I was ready for USC. And there was, at the same time, I had to do like competition in jujutsu. and starts with white belt, a blue belt, purple belt, and travel around the tournament. Are you a black belt jiu-tzeu, too, or just-

No, I stopped when I got to purple. I never trained with Ghee after, which was seven years ago or six, yeah, seven years. The requirement now in UFC is jiu-jitsu, right? You have to have some jiu-jitsu experience. You gotta know ju-jitsu, and you gotta know the kickboxing as well in wrestling. It's not the one thing only. You can't do just one thing. Yeah, I had the CEO of LFA on my show a couple weeks ago, about a week ago,

and he said that Hoyst Gracie came in and proved that Jiu-Jitsu is the superior martial art. And that was, and he was one little tiny guy, your weight, right, 150 pounds going up against 300-pound fighters. And since he proved that, now look at UFC, they're requiring every fighter to know Jiu-Jitsu, to compete. So it's become such a difficult sport now Because everybody knows Jiu-Jitsu So to be a champion Like you really got to put in an extreme amount of effort In every martial art

Yeah, that's how the sport evolved You know, this is only like what 35 years, 30 years old sports And it's only going to grow more and more and more and we just started. I'm super excited to see in the future. Like back in the days there was like karate

versus wrestling, kickboxing versus boxing or Jiu-Jitsu with samba. So there was all different type of martial arts going against each other. But nowadays you can go in one gym and you can bring your kid inside and have

wrestling and grappling and kickboxing and karate and all that together. they are going to grow someone like... Well, those kind of gyms don't exist. And then we talked about this when we met the concept of Gigacick. What was the inspiration for starting Gigacick? When I train and when I have a camp,

when I really want to train with one of the best striking gym, one of the best wrestling. So if some big fights coming up, I want to get all the experience until my fight. And it's like almost impossible. It was impossible before to get to someone who's one of the best grappler, one of the best striker, one of the best wrestler, all together in the same gym. Because all that they all have little egos that, oh, I'm a best wrestler.

I want to be separated with everyone. I want my thing to have. Then you have grappling that I'm the best. grappler and I do traditional this way and that's the only way I'm going to do it. In my case, so I was driving around in one gym and LA for boxing almost two hours, just one way and come back. Doing 45 minutes to Anaheim and come back. So 45 minutes back and then to different areas in Urvine and in other areas and then after all that, driving and spending the six hours of driving per day just to get to the gym.

I was like, you know what? I think it's the right time to do something for community. Put nice dojo here. Bring my old experience. Help the fighters to become the better strikers, better fighters. And to the community to build up the traditional martial arts as karate, Jiu-Jitsu and bring mixed martial arts more easier for community and kind of like to build something special because you come in this place and you have everything

the best best karate best kickboxing best grappling best wrestling best wrestling finally you meet somebody the young kid who is an knowledge of the full mixed martial arts in one place. I think it's a good concept to what we're doing. I love the concept because, you know, finding a boxing gym, you've got to go to a boxing gym, you got to go to a jiu-jitsu gym, and we discuss, I got kids, you know,

and I want them to learn a strike, but then it's like, I've got to take them to a striking gym, and then we belong to a jiu-jitsu gym. And, you know, like having daughters, they've got to learn a strike before they got to learn a jit-sue. You know, and jiu-jitsu is a long process, you know, striking like if they come to a couple striking classes we know that they could defend themselves you know just a couple classes they don't got to train years they don't want to train

arm bars you know so for me just finding something where as if even as a parent that I could rest assured that my kids can properly defend themselves quickly is awesome but then to learn all of the arts in an intense environment like this where you have some of the best fighters in the world training here we just witnessed it and And the viewers will see it on camera here. It's like, you're already attracting the most elite talent here already. The gym just opened. Right.

And the best fighters are already coming here. How in the world did you attract the best fighters on the planet that quick? You know, the gym's name is Giga. There is a reason why they call it Giga. So when I was a young kid, started training with karate. And then I developed the scale that I could transition my direction of the kick from the different areas while I was aiming high kick to switch to body kick or body kick to high kick. And that was really successful.

Then I moved to kickboxing. And I moved in Netherlands, traveling around the world, but in Thailand and multiple, multiple different countries. I used my kick. Once I got really a lot of success in kickboxing, people started to call this kick gigas kick. So time to time then they some people just skipped ass and it became a giga kick. So after that, there's not only one kick I do. I do multiple different kicks and some people think that that's a giga kick. Some people think the other one is a giga kick. So In mixed martial arts today people know me as one of the best kicker in the game

and I have something that not many people have it, maybe only a couple of. And all that experience what I have in the kicking and striking game and transitioning karate to kickboxing, kickboxing to mixed martial arts, finding the right stances, right kicks, right techniques for the striking. I think that's just something that attracts one of the best fighters to come and train with me and take something from here, you know, because what I find for mixed martial arts, it's not came just like that, for all you just... mentioned the over 30 years of experience I was concentrating and practicing the all different striking sports I've been striking I've been practicing there

a lot of high-level boxing trainings as well kickboxing Dutch style kickboxing in Thailand Muay karate in different style that is kiyokushin there is gojurus there is Shito or Serox, Shottokan, all that different type of carolades. So that kind of gave me the ability to help other fighters, find for them the real and right techniques, plan their strategy for the fights. And not only in MMA, obviously, in kickboxing and Muay Thai fights as well. I think that's a smart thing to come here and hang out with us and train.

I think that's why they figured it out by themselves, you know, because we just opened. It's been only like 15 days. 15 days, and there was like five UFC fighters here, champions here. 15 days. And they're coming, I heard them talking, and they're driving like an hour, two hours. Many of them, yeah. And how many hours was the training session? It was two hours.

They come for two hours and they train. And they're going to train again because these people are training in the middle of the day. So they're all professional fighters. Yeah, a lot of, most of them, they have a fight coming up. Yeah. One kid has been two weeks, the title fight coming up in other, yeah, 15 days, three weeks, UFC fights, four weeks, UFC fights, all packed. It's amazing.

I mean, I just come here and I see all these shredded dudes just, like, fighting in the middle of the day. It's like they're all fighting coming up. It's just, I've never seen that. never saw professional fighters in their element training in their training camps here and they're just you know and I'm like it's 12 o'clock you know these guys are all pros it's not like it's a it's a few ways they work out the morning they're not here for a workout they had their workout oh they're going to go now take a little nap and in one more hour they're going to do the same

thing in a different place or conditioning or something like that it's unbelievable it's so cool at 15 days now you're attracting I mean what is it gonna be like here because you're in a prime location this is the first time I've ever seen like a this like a fight camp area and it's in the most famous part of Newport Beach right on Newport Boulevard so you're getting a million views I did probably more than a million views a day you're gonna get you know every probably 10 seconds there's some of UFC fighter being turned on to this place I foresee this place as being like a hub for the world elite athletes coming because there is nothing like this and we're in

the most prime real estate on the planet it's going to be fun that we're professional high-level fighters and serious kids and get together in the same at get the same energy get the experience for kids from stars that are around on TV and for all that professional fighters they it will be more like unique place because in the in the back backyard we're building the ice pass sauna some private area for the gym as well so say that is a someone has a special camp and we don't want nobody to see the training that will be in that room So you can have like the world famous like number one champion in the back. Nobody knows he's here.

We're probably going to direct him here as well because all the kids are going to have fun to share that little energy. You know, it's always good to see someone whose role model. But yeah, yeah, we'll be something really special there in the behind. I love the idea that you've made it like with a. focus on the children you know like because you got the pros coming in the afternoons training in the middle of the day the world elites and then you got kids in the evenings you know my challenge what was my challenge in reality you know how the lately last 25 years around karate has a bad reputation

around that you see the very young age kids with a black belt and most of them they don't know how to use it and let's say some incident happens and they cannot defend themselves you watch karate tournament and it's all about belt or not all of them but most of them you know so i'm trying to bring real traditional karate karate back again so my my challenge is to get that Japanese traditional martial arts back to popularity and teach them the real karate in general. This is what I want to bring. Because you see there's so many jiu-jitsu gyms around here and so popular become, right?

And imagine that we bring the karate back again in the same popularity with the right instructors, right sense, then this kid's gonna be unstoppable I was talking with a dad actually who's at our Jiu Jitsu gym that you know Jiu Jitsu now is the karate of like the 90s yeah you know where there was a karate gym on every corner yeah yeah in my country back then it was no it was even illegal to train Quran is illegal my parents and their brothers and cousins they would train karate into the separate like the closed area in garages and stuff. The giga kick, it's an up, down kick, right?

Yeah, it could be down up-up-kid. Can we get a, like, a demo of what it looks like? Sure, it's like you're going into the body and then you do the high kick or high to the body. Was there a moment in your career where you had to rebuild mentally, not just physically to keep going? You really had to just get through that barrier mentally, because this is a very taxing. Yeah, multiple times, you know, like the first thing, you know, I got married when I was 18, I was a world champion in karate, and I'm like, hell, what I'm going to do, you know, I don't want to be just a... Back then, I wanted to be a fighter, and karate would not pay any salary back, so I had to figure out what to do, so I moved in Holland, I moved in Netherlands to join the country. kickboxing team and learn kickboxing and because back then there was a league

called K-1 and K-1 would pay some money so that that fight there was always like I mean it was mentally tough but say because my I had a new wife she was pregnant very soon as well and we had the baby on the way we moved in city called Breda and first and then then later in amsterdam all that things like fights were like only 200 euros they would pay so i had to fight friday i would for a fight saturday and sunday to survive every other weekend you know so wow we would i would fight in belgium in germany and in holland and travel around in close by countries. So after time to time I made my name there and everything changed and yeah there was many ups and downs with it. Besides that my mom had the

health issues while I was in Holland and it was really hard to be there and support my mom somehow right and then she passed away from cancer that's another the big change was in my life I was very young I was 24 and then there was a time that kind of destroyed a lot in my life then was another big change we moved from Georgia so from Holland we moved to Georgia and from Georgia we moved back in US all my wife was like again we're gonna do this again and we settled in Holland finally we're good everything is great and now we're going in the US but actually she she actually loved that idea as well because moving first yeah first I traveled here I

came down I was invited from one of the Philadelphia's boxing gym to start boxing career, but I checked out Philadelphia, traveled in New York and D.C., and last stop was L.A. And when I came in Cali, I was like, that's the right place to come. The weather is a big game changer, you know. So... What's the weather like in Georgia? Oh, in Georgia, we got a great four-season. We have a very nice summer. We got a beautiful, beautiful Ottoman spring when the nature is changing, not cold or something like that. And we have winter when sometime has some snow in a city, but nothing crazy.

It's not like Russia, like freezing and stuff, no like that. We have a mountain in, you know, Caucasus mountain that you can go and have skiing. It's beautiful, snowboarding. It's amazing. Whoever lives close by, all the regions, they know that that's a skiing resorts are in Georgia. So while we have a black sea, we also have a mountains. Yeah, I mean, it sits right on the ocean, on the black sea. It's very nice, yeah.

So what was that transition, you know, moving from a beautiful place like that, then you're coming over to these random states in the U.S., finally landing in the most beautiful part of America in Newport Beach. But then before that, you know, the transition was like, did it feel like a downgrade? Like, did America feel like the place that you wanted to be? Yeah, there was really different because we loved Europe. We loved the Amsterdam. When we moved first, we slowly worked. We worked on seven years to settle well there. And we were very happy in the end.

And somehow something didn't click. You know, I was already one of the biggest name in kickboxing in my weight division, category but price wise that was not what I dreamed of you know I wanted something much bigger and that's I felt like some some talent I was wasting into something different because financially to even till today kickboxing it's not saying what it used to be 20 years ago in Japan day no no no attention yeah now you're known as one of the most Technical fighters in the UFC. What does elite level striking demand that fans don't fully understand?

Because what I witnessed right now from your striking was like, that was crazy. I don't think fans really understand what it takes to be an elite level striker. You got to know so much. You have to train a lot and get a lot of experience of, You know, the boxing is one thing, kicking is another thing. Mixing up these two things, let's say you are a good kicker, but you're not a good boxer. Or you're good boxer, you're not a good kicker. You can use your hands to distract your opponent and then get benefit from kicks and then mixing up again.

and it's all like all that mixing the combination and mixing hand to hand knees and whole leg it's very something that people don't understand how much it takes it to get like a habit you know yeah people train like 10,000 kick and they do well this or good boxing forever but just put the boxer into the M.MA or kickboxing and you'll see how quick they're gonna fail it. Or someone who's let's say Taekwanda fighter, you bring in kickboxing and even a karate fighter who goes straight to kickboxing without experience they fail it very quick. So mixing up all the techniques is something that takes time and people don't understand today how much it takes. It's all about experience.

Yeah, I mean, people are now not valuing striking as much, you know, as they, as ground and pound type of stuff, you know. They want the, it's all the, I think there's a resurgence now in striking and really that's, you know, if fans witness the UFC, I mean, I think striking is obviously the, the most, you know, the fans witness the UFC. the most entertaining. Most exciting, definitely. Most entertaining. And we were just having that discussion, like, for kids, it's obviously the most, like, exciting for them to do it

versus, like, you know, the technicality is behind jiu-jitsu. And a lot of the fans don't understand how technical jiu-jitsu is and how much brain power goes into it versus, like, striking, it's, like, the same. We see punching, we see kicking. It's more fun.

You know? We're not looking at the mental chest. Yeah, yeah. Even though I know as a striker, it's definitely still mental chess. Yeah, they can still have fun even if they don't have much experience. It's much easier to start baby steps. Now, walk us through a real fight camp, okay?

A really high level fight camp. We see these fighters in here right now. What's happening behind the scenes that the public never sees? Because the people are like fight camp, like, I don't even know what the heck of fight camp is. Like, what is a fight camp? What's a high-level fight camp? What's happening? Like, how do you guys become the ultimate fighters in these camps?

Yeah, there are so much that has not really seen on TV or publicly. Like, a lot of times people say that, oh, I don't watch my opponents, but I don't care who everybody is. I'll fight anyone and I'll do this and that. We all watched our opponents fight. We try to learn their skills, what type of shape they are, who they are training. It's something that kind of helps you to understand that we will be fighting, right?

A lot of fighters, they have habits that, oh, after they punch, they drop the hand, or after they do left hooks, they do shoot, take down something. So we really study our opponent very well. At least like we try, high-level fighters, that's what we do. We got... You know what's one of the most hardest in a camp to stay healthy? Because you come here, you saw it here

and all the MMA gyms when there are high-level fighters camp going, going on, a lot of times people get injured. So to stay injury free for the whole camp, that's the most challenge. I mean, these weight cuts are gnarly. Like, you're probably rolling around at 170, you fight at 145. Right now I'm 185, so. 185.

So you drop 40 pounds for a fight. Oh, yeah. Last time I started camp, I was for 191. So 45 pounds over. You're going to drop 45 pounds for your next fight? Next, yeah, so far 40 probably. Yeah. Yeah, you guys are not going to recognize me when I make the weight.

But next day, yeah. What is dropping 40 pounds? And you're fit already. Like, what are you going to do to drop 40 pounds? Because you already train every day. Right nutrients. Follow my daily routine, how I told you about my limited breakfast and the right supplements, train multiple times per day, walk, because walking is great for

burning the fat. Sometimes you run, you train, nothing happens, you cannot break their weight on the scale, you know, it just doesn't come. It's interesting that it's just a slower, like a little higher pace walking for 45 minutes. minutes to hour could be so much helpful to burn that little fat inside the part. All that makes much easier weight cuts. We all do that. We try to nap between trainings. Otherwise, you feel really tired and none of the training will be helpful.

That part. You know, their recoveries are multiple different facilities. facilities that we go and use to red light therapy, we do hyperbaric chamber, CIVAC therapy, obviously from mechanically like some injuries we have we go see massage therapists and acupuncture and all that stuff oh I forgot in my daily routine and when I wake up I start with ice pass as well when I'm in a ice bath yeah every morning you put your whole body like five days a week I jump into 40, 40, 40 Farringate.

To stay at least three minutes. You have an ice bath at the house? Yeah. So every morning you start, I mean, that's, you do do the cold plunge. I do. Every morning. When I'm in a camp.

In a camp, okay. Yeah. Not, uh, normally. Normally I try to kind of relax a little bit, which doesn't last for long. Okay, so walk me through a morning routine during camp? My bedroom when I sleep when I'm in a camp it's filled and I have an altitude chamber where I sleep every single night so you come in my bedroom and it's like like a big

tent and you plug it in there is a big machine generates the altitude so it's high altitude over 8,000 feet. In your room? Yeah. And do you do your room here? Like, are you leaving somewhere? You're doing it here at your normal house? In the house, in my bedroom, yeah.

Wow. They flew, they did all that here. What does it do is like helps me to have benefit of my conditioning. It's like amazing, you say. And I do that every time I sneak out from my tent. I try to stay there every night. It's no easy. The first two, three days,

and then starts your nose kind of sometimes bleed, bleeding. Depends how you feel. It's like a higher in mountain when you go. Yeah, I remember taking my kids just to Colorado on high altitude. They all had bloody noses. There are the fights in Colorado. There are fights in Mexico City.

When people go there and if they don't use to it, they get tired in one round. And whoever lives there, if they just come from there and fight in Vegas or somewhere else, then those guys get extra cardio boost. That's fascinating. Okay, so you're opening up Gigga Kick. Now, what kind of culture are you intentionally building inside this dojo?

Because we see a culture. I love when we chat the first time, you know, you're the first person to bring, like, an icon of St. George from Georgia in martial arts theme. I've been driving by this and you know for a long time and it's the first time I've seen something like this where you're really Intentionally building a very unique culture so that this place as in as you guys can see it looks very traditional very old school Japanese culture Influenced same time I want to bring something from my country more from my culture

which is based on respect and we have in our Christianity the St. George which is like a role model for a lot of people around that it's what it translates it's like St. George battling with evil it's pretty much similar as in Yan. Asian culture, right? It's like your inner good and inner bad. So you pick your path, which way you're going to go. So one of the artists,

John Galang, he did posters for UFC. He worked for Nike, Reebok, and is very famous. He flew from New York and stayed here for two weeks. And when he came up with that painting mural, made my, I don't know, like one of the dream come true as well that I wanted to do something here. I want that painting in my house. Yeah.

I want your fabric, you know, publicize that painting and release it. Yeah, those two things also he came up with. Yeah. And this was later done. So there was a little earlier. and yeah so that's something that I want to show the kids and teach the kids that everything you guys decide into your head you want to pick the good or you want to pick the bag and we're going to help the kids to choose why they should pick the good ones you know so that's what I'm trying to build the way they should pick the good ones you know so that's what I'm trying to build the way

gym is going to run it's not going to be just a gym it's we call it do dojo where when they come they do bow and when they live from here they do the same thing it will be about to respect everything here and respect the higher bells and older and trying to share the knowledge I think we're gonna do something really good I believe it I think it's gonna be something really special. Now I have a couple last questions for you. What's a personal goal that you have for yourself this year? What's a family goal that you have for your family and what's a business goal that you have for Gigacick? Personal goal, your personal goal besides the business-wise and this

gym to make successful is to get my sports career, get going. back again I have to come back with a nice nice W that's something that I'm looking for about you say the family dream family goal this family goal personal family goal family goal I mean family goals it's very simple right yeah torture who's studying in a high school and make her make her see success at school at the moment. My son plays football, trains here, so we want to see some competition.

We want him to make it. Actually, I want to see him happier. He is already very happy and even happier in the future. So that's something that I'm not really pushing to him. He picked the side that he wanted to train here. So I'm happy to see what he stands for and what he wants to do. And for my wife together, we have... You know, I think we made the one of the dream come true that we started a business year together.

He is the main author of this dojo that looks like this Japanese style, very minimal. is very involved in pretty much everything, marketing to sales, to all the stuff. And in general, like, I kind of see that Family Dream is like more business dream at this moment for this year to get the gym going, get multiple members in the gym, ride community, and going from there. We'll see what happens. And how about a personal goal for yourself? Personal goal. Back to 140?

Yeah, 145. Yeah, definitely. You know, I'm a very God-believer person. So I believe every single morning when I wake up and sunshine, something's good is going to happen. So I'm just trusting in the God's plan and following. I don't plan. I mean, I always like to plan it.

Just live in positivity and affirmation. I'm going to do my 100% whatever I can do every day. And I know that tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, something good is always going to come up. Now, last question for you. When you're in front of the pearly gates, what do you think God's going to tell you? I hope not too many bad things.

I'm gonna hear about me. And I hope I'll hear something, one thing that make me happy, that, oh, I did the right thing. We are all sinners here, and we all are working on that to make the way up there with him. I don't know, I don't know. And probably inside me, I know what I'm doing good or bad. And hopefully when I go there, I'll be ready to face it.

That's what we all pray for, man. What about you? You know, when I go and I was just thinking about this, and I think about this every time I ask the question, it's like, is he going to tell me, well done, good and faithful servant? Is you going to tell me, like, you could have done better? like I give it my best and I fall every single day, every day, fall in my face. And I just get back up and I fight again every single day.

So when I go, for me, God knows my heart and he knows I exist for one thing and one thing only to do his work. Yet I fall into the same temptations and the same issues, but I'm here as a servant. That's it. So he's gonna tell me, and this answer probably changes every time I think about it. And he's gonna tell me you should have done better. But I'm gonna let you in. Like barely, barely made it. You got your visa.
