I like to read a lot. I like to get informed a lot.<br \/>\nI got into the habit of reading. When you come out of your home<br \/>\ncountry \u2013 I\u2019m here in Vegas \u2013 yes, I have friendships and the team,<br \/>\nthey help me a lot, they\u2019re with me all the time. But whenever<br \/>\nyou\u2019re alone, you have to just take your time and enjoy your<br \/>\nmoments alone. You maybe have to reassess yourself. I sat down and<br \/>\nthought about what I had done throughout my career. I\u2019ve had some<br \/>\nlosses by decision. I felt they were dumb, like we say back home,<br \/>\n\u2018hard headed.\u2019 I wouldn\u2019t take new things in. I though to myself,<br \/>\n\u2018They were dumb losses, you can do better.\u2019 Lot of self-evaluation,<br \/>\nlot of reading, I love to meditate, and I started thinking about<br \/>\nthe last steps to do my next step.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Edwards (18-6) is currently riding a five-fight winning streak, the<br \/>\nlongest of her <a rel=\"noopener nofollow noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sherdog.com\/organizations\/Ultimate-Fighting-Championship-2\"><br \/>\nUFC<\/a> career, including four finishes.
