Life can be tough, but as a human being, you got to be tougher. Those are the words of my greatest mentor of all times, Mac Newton, the late Mac Newton, who taught me priceless lessons. He said, you can do anything that you're prepared to do. You could do anything if you're prepared to do it. Number two, quitting can never be your first choice. Quitting can never be your first choice. And the third thing, he says, when you feel like you got nothing left, really, you're only halfway there. And when I would work out with him in his studio, it was 100 degrees and I'm running suicides, push ups, sit ups, gasping for air, feeling like I could not go any further. His words would ring in my brain. You've got to resurrect something else inside Blair that goes beyond your muscle capability. That's the magic. He said, life will send you a storm. It will test you, it will try to push you backwards, but you got to be tough.
