"Your mental toughness will be tested while you're breaking
records, are you up for the challenge?"
-- Paul Lawrence Vann
I'm stoked, last week while attending Robert G. Allen's,
Enlightened Wealth Retreat in Washington, DC, I met a man
that inspired me.
In fact, his name is Werner Berger and this man has reached
the summit of seven of the highest mountains on seven
continents. What's so amazing about Werner is that he is 70
years old.
On May 22, 2007, Werner climbed to the summit of Mount
Everest and became the oldest North American to summit
seven mountains on seven continents.
On June 4, 2007, approximatley two weeks after returning
from his summit, Werner was interviewed by Matt Lauer on
The Today Show. Matt Lauer asked Werner, "Why is a 69 year
old man climbing mountains?"
Werner Berger responded by saying, "It's the challenge of
the beautiful mountains that compel me to climb." Werner
went on to say, climbing Mount Everest was the most
grueling and presented him with his greatest challenge.
Werner also stated his body was prepared for the final
stage of the climb, however he experienced doubts and
fears. What I love about Werner is that he acknowledged,
confronted, and overcame his fears.
How did he ovecome his nemesis doubts and fears? Werner
stated, "I confronted my doubts and fears and made a mental
adjustment resulting in my mind and body becoming one in
the moment."

What a tremendous man and inspiration to many who dare to
push themselves beyond their limits. I want you to remember
when you're confronted by fears and doubts that you will
make a mental adjustment and overcome your fears and you
will be able to climb your mountains in life.
