Yes, I believe I got the transliteration right for a change.

This was an old, old movie from back in the day. A typical Bollywood potboiler, and a rather dumb (but realistic as opposed to the crap they put out these days) movie at that, about some dudes whose only and primary purpose in life was to win a cycling race at school apparently.

And none of the dudes actually looked like they were in high school, and the heroine of the movie “bodacious” certainly did not.

They all looked around 30 or so, and thats WITH makeup, camera angles and such.

And then of course, we have yours truly who without any of that gets called a “movie star” all the time, and 15 years younger than my actual age …

OK, I know.

I Tom Tommed a little there, but it’s for a damn good reason!

But anyway, I dont know. Becoming a movie star, or TV star, or even Jesus was never high on my bucket list of priorities.

Being a caveman was, and IS, and will continue to be for the forseeable future.

Now, why do I remember this movie all of a sudden?

Well, for one, from what I heard, my daughter basketball teacher “claims-cum-jokes” that “its either my daughter thats gotten taller, or the cycle she rides has gotten shorter”.

I’d say both, hehe. All those pull-ups (though she doesnt quite like doing ’em) help!

Remember what my “beautiful wife” once told me in 2018 about “you’re looking taller now!

And that was at the ripe old age of 36. Or perhaps 37? Cant quite remember.

But thats there on the blog (s).

That was back when she actually had something positive to say about me other than “cut your hair!“.

(Which I won’t do).

And “you look like a schoolboy”.

Which, according to her at the age of 36 I “looked like a schoolboy” when MEN – real MEN all around me were telling me I got into awesome shape.

Strange the way female minds function, hehe. So long as you’re a fat ass they think the other women won’t chase you, but instantly when you’re the oppposite …

If they’d only get it its all about the MIND.

Anyhow . . . this ain’t no damn tome on women. So, anyway . . .

#2 was probably because of the song “Pehla Nasha” (in English, that means “first addiction”) – one of the most soulful and romantic songs I’ve ever heard, and it still rings in my brain as I right this . . .

I dont know – maybe thats why the movie was a superhit back in the day!

But anyway, that sort of thinking is the very WORST thing that can be done long term when it comes to relationships.

Trust me.

I’ve been there, done that, made the mistake, proudly worn the T shirt – done thrown it away, and sometimes yours truly makes it again. Hehe.

And #3, and most of all?

Well, my friend, the title of the movie, and it’s import.

What it basically means is whoever WINS is the ultimate CHAMP.

And this is what I keep trying to drive into peoples noggins, but precious few listen.

It matters not where you are NOW in terms of your fitness – or life – or anything – what matters is the will to SEE IT THROUGH till the end – and the will to BECOME that CHAMP no matter how LONG it takes, and accept nothing else.

It took Napoleon Hill twenty years or more to get to where HE Wanted to be.

Yet, years after he’s passed on, his books sell like hotcakes, and he’s the inspiration behind COUNTLESS successes from Donald Trump to Tony Robbins to just about anyone whose been there and done that.

When Hill met Carnegie at the young age of 24 something, I believe, Carnegie (unknown to Hill) gave him the sum total of one minute to decide if he was ready to take up a MISSION that wouldn’t pay for itself, that would take no less and probably more than 20 years to “accomplish”, that would meet with scorn, ridicule and many other things, and that for which the man who DID it wouldn’t really get any REAL and lasting recognition until long after he passed on.

Now those are long odds!

But Hill took up the challenge!

That GUT.

That GUT SPOKETH – and I can identify because I have been there and done that on many an occasion too!

More than I can remember.

Fitness wise, question begets.

Which path are YOU going to take ?

Are you going to understand that the world only remembers the WINNERS – and not those who “Stand by and watch”?

If you’ve got a goal to do 500 pushups per workout ARE YOU going to GET THERE?

If you’ve got a goal to get into the best damned shape of your life – WILL you do it ?

A long time ago, Eric a roommmate of mine asked me something when I asked him about his gym routine.

I was admittedly lazy at the time, but I did pushups in my dorm room “too ashamed of my skinny self” to tell anyone I did ’em!

And when I spoke to Eric?

He looked at me.

“But you’re never going to do it, are you?”

I didnt then. I didnt have the confidence!

But the desire persisted, and now, well …!

So I ask YOU the question, bro.

Will you – or won’t you?

The choice is yours, and yours alone. I can show you the way, but YOU have to make the choice!

Let me know!

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee
