Did you choose the right BJJ academy?

[JiuJitsuNow]

What was your main motivation when you started training? Did you
choose the right academy for you? Does your academy possess the same
focus as you? Many academies do not participate in tournaments, but you
might have competition running through your blood. What do you do?
Abandon this academy and join another? Wouldn't you be considered a
Creonte (brazilian jiu-jitsu term for traitor, or somebody who jumps
from academy to academy)? Do the students in your academy pressure you
to change your mind and adopt the academy's style? What about your
professor?
