My Fitness Myth Buster Trust
December 21st 2006 11:23
One of the most underrated and quirky of America's literary figures was the success writer Napoleon Hill. Hill spent his life researching how one might start from scratch and ultimately achieve success. He produced the little gem Think and Grow Rich in 1960 and I remember hearing his squeaky voice read from it in the 1980s when recorded success programs first got my attention. I bought a copy at a K-Mart for all of $2.25 around 1983. The little tome has turned out to be one whose message(s) return to my mind often.
To me Hill's signal idea has to do with the how of success. Anyone can conceive desires for something. If you conceive a goal,however, the odds are that you cannot immediately and effortlessly grasp the process you will use to achieve it. Hill's solution was to assemble what he called your Master Mind Trust. This is a group of experts whose sum total of knowledge about your pursuit gives you know- how on every aspect of it. You will want to confer with them at every step of your endeavor and they will guide you toward the objective with a precision you could not,of course,manifest on your own.
Hill's Master Mind Trust is a vivid representation of what we all must do if we wish to accomplish anything new. We must weed our way through the mountains of information sources available on the subject- sometimes genuine and sometimes bogus(in most cases a little of both) in order to find what will work for us. We must find sources we determine to be reliable and consult them. We don't have to know them personally, of course. We just have to have them available in some form-book, magazine, tape, dvd.
My experience is that at some point in the process of weeding through the information to which I expose myself I find someone who will sound through the static of misinformation like a clarion, someone who has the facts and presents them in a way that is cogent and ultimately believable. These individual sources become the members of my Master Mind Trusts.
In fitness I have a triumvirate of men who have have become my Fitness Myth Buster Trust. These are men who made available the truth- its as simple as that. I think they are worth your consideration.
On training- the when, how often, how long, etc. etc. - there is no one who has had an effect on me like Leo Costas and his Big Beyond Belief training system(www.Bigbeyondbelief.com). When I read his stuff it was a revelation. And there is no greater myth buster on the subject of training for growth.
On diet I have to stick with Rob Faigin and his book Natural Hormonal Enhancement(www.extique.com). When I read this book, I had to make 180 degree turn in my whole approach to diet. Faigin was right and he convinced me that I with the facts that I was going about it all wrong.
Tom Venuto is on my list with his Burn the Fat System(www.burnthefat.com), because Venuto is a reality check I need and so do you. He will tell you the truth about the effort and focus you need to get that fat off and those biceps bigger at the same time. With all the nonsense out there about pills and wonder machines its just vital for your success that someone tell you the truth about something for nothing. Venuto's the man for that.
If you want to be fit you need your own Fitness Myth Buster Trust. Take a look at mine and begin the intellectual and motivational journey that always precedes all success. Your servant, as always.
