df, Good video. Going to watch it again. Some sees obvious but it gets you to think and honestly the last couple weeks I know what he means by the Grind. I will keep that in mind next time I get on the trainer.

Thanks js, I know what you mean. Years ago I remember reading Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People and thinking how obvious all the advice seemed, yet without consciously thinking about it how much of it was never applied. Happy New Year!
