Jim Carey is trained in CIA torture resistance techniques
He said so on Graham Norton last week
Fascinating thing is why
It was so he could endure the process of getting his make up done for when he played the Grinch
It took 8.5 hours the first day
And he did it 100 times for the movie
Shit.
Talk about dedication to your job
But yeah he actually had to learn torture resistance techniques so he could actually do it
Day after day.
And when it comes to doing the important stuff for your body and your health you gotta learn certain mental techniques too.
The whole suck it up and do it lingo is garbage
And that’s why people start to think they just aren’t good enough or they can’t do it
Goes back to why trying to use willpower is pointless too
Something the positive, happy clappy, inspirational quotes brigade just don’t get.
And at the seminar on Wednesday I’m gonna not only show you, but prove to you, why it’s ok to feel shit, negative and hopeless. And why you should feel like that more.
The way I’m gonna prove it is by telling my story. How I used to be the happy clappy positive thinking kinda guy.
But it wasn’t until I faced up to reality that I actually started to achieve what I wanted.
And I’m still on my journey, I’m only really starting and I still feel like a failure.
You’ll find out why here:
