If you don’t, don’t worry too much… he didn’t fare so well as a VP candidate or in politics for that matter, but he was quite an impressive military man. He was former president of the Naval War College and was the highest ranking officer in the “Hanoi Hilton” in Vietnam.
He happened to spend eight long years as a captive in Hanoi and was tortured numerous times.
Mr. Thomas Barnett relates:
"Stockdale tells the story of the optimists who never survived their time in Hanoi, simply because they clung far too much to their dreams of release and in doing so couldn’t handle the brutal realities of what it took to survive the day to day.“So instead of dealing with the here and now realistically, they tended to cling to the hope that they’d be home by whatever the next holiday was, and when that day came and went, their spirit would be diminished by that measure.
“Over time, they died because their spirit was extinguished by reality.”

And you know what? A lot of exercisers and fat loss candidates are really just too optimistic. Worse yet, the weight loss pitchmen exploit this and sell ridiculously unrealistic plans to starry-eyed people.
What a shame.
I seriously doubt anything you ever face in the exercise world will be as dreadful as the Hanoi Hilton. Still, nothing can be worse for you than to walk into battle with a plastic sword and helmet, and then get cut down with tanks and machine guns.
You wanna survive… then thrive…
Here are some wise precautions that will prepare you for adversity and ensure your success:
- Understand that everything isn’t going to happen all at once and sudden change isn’t necessarily a good thing.

- Assume that some days aren’t going to allow you the time to exercise - so start working out in the morning
A positive attitude can take you places. Howeve
