Some of you have heard this tale before, but I dont know if you’ve heard what I’m going to relate now.

And it ties into the “credit” for your success email I sent out a while ago in a weird sort of manner.

Y’all may have noticed that while I talk about various women in my dispatches, the only one really mentioned in any of the sales pages for the books?

Is Cindy – to whom I will be forever and ever grateful for taking the vidoes and photos for 0 Excuses Fitness, when NOONE else would (or could, apparently).

We did it all with three phones, and nothing else. Heh.

Cindy was admittedly very interested in the subject matter . . .

(when the student is ready – the teacher SHALL appear)!

Not to mention I taught her English before and … well, thats a long story!

But anyway, the other person is Ann Lee (Advanced Hill Training).

If there was EVER a person that “Deserves” to be on that page, it’s her!

Anyway, flashback first.

Y’all probably remember that one night I spoke about – basically a 5AM – 530 AM “binge of sorts”.

I went to HK, climbed the hill, met Ann Lee, climbed again, then the beer drinking started, eating Chinese food with chopsticks (I couldn’t do it at that point, and my fingers shook uncontrollably, which made her giggle like nothing I’ve ever seen), using Asian style “squat” toilets (I didn’t use it finally!) and then of course plenty of beer, and so forth).

And as we finally started to head home around 430AM or so?

I ordered “one more”.

Not one for the road, but just one more cold one …

When Ann saw this, she got peeved.

“Why no you tell me you want another one!”

For reference, my Mandarin at the time was even more terrible than it is now, and the guys (gals, actually) could barely understand me, so she was doing the communication, but at that point, they knew what the foreign devil wanted, and being she had a few herself, I figured I’d just get up, order it, and get it myself.

Big mistake apparently!

“I wanna do for you!”

What she meant was she wanted to keep “getting it for me” for some reason which is what she had been doing all evening since “I was her man” or something.

Anyway, I apologized, we made off “home” and that was that.

Dont know why I felt compelled to bring this up?

Maybe because the NEXT time she said something, I listened!!

I will NEVER forget that first climb up the hill …

… and thats mentioned on the Advanced Hill Training page.

… and I’ll never forget a month later when I wistfully remarked “I Wish I could do that daily!”

The look she gave me, my friend – I’ll never forget it.

And that VOICE – oh my!

School Mistresses of all ages, step aside. THIS woman had it!

“You CAN!”

“After work!”

“Dont make excuse!”

She didnt say the last. Her eyes said it!

And so started a fitness journey of a lifetime!

I will not say and indeed won’t say she “gets all the credit” because even Ann Lee in her wildest dreams wouldn’t have imagined the impact her words would have on me, and how I’d climb that sucker 7 times a day … blazing heat, humidity, rain, everything.

As Charles (guy who rants about pull-ups being useless) told me.

“I dont know how you do it!”

He wasn’t the only one either that said that.

I was the one that buckled down, and DID IT.

But still, sometimes, someone has to light the fire under your rumpus, my friend.

Or you do it yourself.

Several of my greatest achievements – sales – books – have come without prior planning (indeed, my entire life has been lived that way, despite what some people say about me being a “master planner” – I ain’t – my subconscious does it!) … on the spur of the moment.

(Zero to Hero, by the way, was an ACTUAL quote that someone made about my performance at “that” company in terms of from where I took them to where they were at that point)

Sometimes it was rage (often times).

Sometimes anger.

Sometimes humiliation.

Sometimes, well, it was an Ann Lee or Carol that lit a fire under my rumpus.

Key takeaway from all this being?

CHANNEL that emotion.

If you’re frustrated about something, MAKE the change in your life.

If you’re tired of being left behind – DO something about it.

Fitness wise, same thing.

A famous Stallone line in the much trolled (and I loved the movie) “Over the Top”.

The world meets nobody halfway, Mike. If you want it – you gotta TAKE IT.

Do whats right for you. Always do that!

Truer words were never spoken ..

Anyway, enough on that.

Advanced Hill Training is here, for those interested.

I’ll be back!

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee
