Andy Neary (speaker/uploader) recounts a brief personal anecdote about a workshop attendee, Colton Storla, who — despite having had hip surgery roughly a year and a half earlier — joined a virtual workshop almost immediately afterward and took notes while recuperating. The story is offered as an example of extraordinary dedication and the "student of the game" mentality.

Colton. Storla. Colton, I hope I don't expose you here too much, but this guy had to have a surgery on his hip a couple years ago, about a year and a half ago. And I was hosting a workshop, virtual workshop, the next day or two days later, I can't remember. And all of a sudden, as I jump on the workshop, I see Colton come into the Zoom Room. And I was shocked. I'm like, wait, dude, you had surgery yesterday? And here he was, laying on his couch, probably hopped up on pain meds, yet he was still there, taking notes, attending this workshop. This is what I'm talking about, folks. Colton is constantly striving for better.
