Background

Bochniak associated with the wrong crowd when he was growing up where he was drinking excessively and engaging in substance abuse activities. His unhealthy habits led him to drop out of school, and he was in a coma for a week due to overdosing on prescription pills. Bochniak eventually ended up in jail where he found out his father, who left his mother when Bochniak was two, was in the next cell from his. Bochniak realized he did not want to end up like his father, so he made a pledge with the judge with a heartfelt arraignment speech. The judge granted Bochniak five year probation of his offense where he was transferred to Hartford, Connecticut. In Hartford, Bochniak started learning welding and eventually landed a job as a welder. He later stumbled into Broadway Jiu-Jitsu where he started his journey to be a mixed martial artist, which turned his life around.[4]

Today I celebrate a decade of sobriety and staying out of trouble. I’d be lying if I said it was easy. Not sure what’s more important sometimes... either to look back on my past or look forward to the future. One thing you’ll hear in the halls a lot is, “one day at a time” or better yet, “one minute at a time.” These two phrases stuck with me when I heard them for the first time at a very young age. I wouldn’t say I’m a changed man just a different way of thinking. Once you stop blaming the world for life going to shit and realize you had a choice all along it becomes a little bit easier. I know some people get dealt with a less to sub-par life but still, there’s always a choice. I wasn’t going to post anything today because it’s my personal life but I remembered this one day when I heard a man speak in an AA meeting once, “If there’s one person in this room that is hearing me and that I could potentially save from a life of shit and misery then that’s all that counts.” I hope someone heard me. Things will never be easy but they can be worth it. God bless.[5]
