You never really change who you are at the CORE
- Way too many people dont acknowledge this.

You dont.

REgardless.

You can’t take the man out of the man regardless.

Might sound like gibberish, but it’s true.

Like you can’t take red out of redneck, no, I dont consider that derogatory, but an argument made by someone on a forum, if you consider the n word derogatory why not this? He was right…

Anyway – way too many people dont acknowledge WHO they are at the core, therefore, they dont know what they WANT out of life – truly – and lives unsatisfied lives of pure, utter mediocrity. I’ve got examples right in front of me right now!

Anyway – in the 2008 hit movie Jannat, a movie I watched in the hall with my wife, a movie that shook me deeply, I loved it so much I didnt kiss her ONCE (and we were HOT then) in the damn theater – and that catapulted the actor to stardom, the villain makes a remark of “Insan ki phidrat kabhi nahi badalti”.

Which translates roughly into the title of this email.

Story of a small town boy with an uncanny sixth sense that helps him predict outcomes of cricket matches, then he starts to bet, makes huge money, gets noticed for and starts working for the mafia (justifies it by saying I dont do anything other than fix matches – which he didnt, true) … and the love of his life tries till his last breath to rid him of his gambling habit as she puts it – which brought him fame, riches, money – more than “Croseus”, so much so people were comparing it to Alladin’s lamp – but can’t.

The villian knew this, thus he kept enticing dude to come back to work even after he quit “for the girlfriend” – but wasn’t happy inside.

See story of my own father “quitting smoking for the mother” and no other reason a few emails back. HA!

Now, movie wise, it didnt end well for dude in the movie, but it made him a superstar in real life till this date. I love the guy – though my favorite movie of him is a gangster movie he made in HK – I remember the streets of HK (at the same time) so vividly every time I see that damn movie (2003 flick).

Real times, real movies, not the crap we see today. most of it is crap, anyway – though real is starting to return, way too slowly for my liking …

Anyway. McMahon in his podcast talks about how you never really change who you are when Steve asked him about their classic chemistry (if you’ve seen the Attitude Era, you kno what I mean!) – that was a head and shoulders above already solid chemistry and a massively popular show otherwise.

Even in places like India, three weeks delayed RAW on Star Sports… I remember when they came here, damn, I had to go see ’em!

Mom was complaining about “those drunk guys there” …

Luckily I managed to go. Hehe. None of the pyrotronics you see in the WWE – even in those days, but the technology simply wasnt there in Pragati Maidan then!

Anyway …

They were an attraction, broken toilet seats, gulping down bottles of Bisleri in one gulp (Big Daddy cool Diesel – hehe) and such …

But back to it, his answer to this was – despite my current money etc, I never forgot where I was from.

In a party, the bartender is the one I identify with the most.

And with self professed redneck Austin, well, Vinces brilliant mind did the rest!

And thats that my friend.

It’s a key success lesson to learn.

Hope you did!

Best,
