1st place at the Jizzakh regional selection stage

The Jizzakh regional selection marked an important moment of progress for me—one shaped by consistency rather than long-term athletic ambition.

By that time, martial arts had become a structured part of my routine, alongside my studies and other priorities. Training was steady, focused, and purposeful. I did not approach the competition with expectations of titles, but with the intention to perform well and apply what I had learned.

The result was first place.

This achievement represented more than a victory at a regional level. It reflected discipline developed over time, attention to detail, and the ability to stay composed under pressure. It also confirmed that sustained effort, even when not driven by a specific goal, can lead to strong outcomes.

I see this result not as a defining moment, but as a meaningful checkpoint—one that showed the value of consistency and balance. At that stage of my life, it was a clear reminder that commitment produces results, even in unexpected areas.
