It’s interesting.

Out of all the comments, arguments etc that I get from people (when I do engage, which is hardly ever) – none really “stick”.

Dont get me wrong.

Yours truly “memory of an elephant” remembers it ALL, but in accordance with the black mamba mentality, he doesn’t necessarily go all out every time he remembers something like that.

He plays his cards close to his chest … always.

But there is one thing I’ll always remember my wife saying, and I’ll remember it not because of the way in she said it, but (and I apologize if this pisses some people off) – but really – it was so STUPID.

The thinking behind it.

Actually, no, I dont apologize for saying it. Hehe.

But … anyway, so there was something going on.

First, the inane and endless conversations on the phone which to be honest could have been easily resolved via a quick email or text.

Of course, how dare I even DARE to say that. Hehe.

I didnt say it.

Explaining stuff that a three year old shoul dunderstand.

She kept doing it over and over again.

I said nothing. Kept MUM.

And then of course, some Korean or Chinese or Antarctic I dont know, soap opera started to blare.

Right infront of me.

I lost it.

Almost.

But then didnt.

I asked the following mildly “Would you mind putting on headphones?”

Thats all I asked her!

The yowl that I got and the “how dare I” look – oh MY.

I’ll remember that forever.

And none of that would have mattered if I wasn’t WORKING OUT AT THE SAME TIME!

My wife went on with this comment (which is what I am writing to you about) …

“You’re just exercising! Why do you need peace and quiet (and by extension FOCUS) now? “

Some questions floor yours truly if just for the sheer STUPIDITY.

I said nothing.

Until this date, I have NOT brought it up.

But really!

Exercise doesnt require focus perhaps if you’re running on a treadmill at a pace that hardly taxes you for hours on end sipping lattes and looking at the Tee Vee Shee Vee.

Or if you’re “Madam” Jassy getting her lovely (admittedly) shoulders “pressed” (as she says) after each set of 10 reps of pinko dumbbells …

But real stuff?

Real man stuff? ?

I mean, really.

If you dont have focus during doing HANDSTANDS for one, and doing them on your fingertips, then you’ll likely BREAK your fingers or worse.

I was lucky my own thumb didnt get permanently injured back in the day (that injury Ive written about so often, and truth be told, I was exhausted – – and again, lack of FOCUS!).

If you’re doing pushups or squats in high reps – let me tell you this.

Without focus on what you’re doing in the here and now – you’ll go nowhere.

It is not for NOTHING I say my workouts build GUMPTION … and allow you to FOCUS intensely on a RESULT you want to create – any result!

But try telling that to the sheeple out there.

Anyway, thats it for now. I’m off to meditate for a while (YES, you need to focus for that too!).

Best,
