Hi Mike,

I enjoyed your story about meeting those physical challenges, as well as tackling the "Three Summits of Eve"....

There can be a link between conquering those physical challenges, and conquering other challenges in life....

While I'm not a good example of that (my exercise is mostly looking for the remote), I know someone who is also like you are....

Someone who loves extreme physical challenges....

She pushes herself to the limit physically, in terms of her endurance. She has so much energy, she told me she HAS to do it!

She's the same person who started her own ecommerce company that I mentioned once earlier, the one who has venture capital backing and who also has financial backing from Time Warner -- she is doing VERY well....

Thanks Mike!

Okay, I like body surfing too.... so it's not just hunting for the remote!

And I've pushed myself in other ways too.... I pushed my ear drums to the limit in the days I used to listen to thrash metal (I don't recommend pushing your ear drums to the limit, though -- it wasn't a good idea)...

I've mellowed a bit since then.... :)

You've given great advice :)
