You're doing radio for 138 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 2: a really long time, and you really opened up about 139 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 2: how difficult it was to step away from that and 140 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 2: how you. 141 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 4: Struggle to get out of bed and stuff. 142 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 2: Now that you've now you've got through this sas challenge 143 00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 2: and you know you've got that strength in yourself again. 144 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 2: Can I just you know, here an update on how 145 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 2: you're going now and how you're feeling about everything? 146 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 3: Mate? Honestly, I can say I'm in the best physical 147 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 3: and mental shape I've ever been in my entire career 148 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 3: because I've managed to get them to work in Unison 149 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 3: for the first time, and I've spent times that I've 150 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 3: been physically quite fit and maybe not one hundred percent 151 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 3: mentally fit and vice versa. You know, like you how 152 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 3: many years ago I was king of the world in 153 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 3: my own mind and my confidence levels through the roof, 154 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 3: but I wasn't the best person I could see, whereas 155 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 3: you know, this has reinstilled my confidence. But it's also 156 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 3: done with a degree of humility, which I was probably 157 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 3: lacking many years ago when I was a younger man. 158 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 3: So it's been extraordinarily good for that. And I believe 159 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 3: very much in the term mental fitness as opposed to 160 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 3: mental strength or mental I don't like the term mental toughness. 161 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 3: It's if you want to have mental toughness, get mentally fit, 162 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 3: and you know your mind. Your brain is a muscle train. 163 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 3: It develop at work on it. And that's what I 164 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 3: did for you know, nine months before when I that course, 165 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 3: I was working more consistently on my mind than I 166 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 3: was on my body. I was doing everything I needed 167 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 3: to do to prepare my mind for the difficult tasks. 168 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 3: And that preparation is what shook me out of a 169 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 3: funk that I was falling into. I didn't want to 170 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 3: fall off the precipice to go into, you know, a 171 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 3: mouse of depression and fall into depressions like a lot 172 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 3: of blokes my age, unfortunately, can be prone to do so. 173 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 3: Rather than you know, watching it kind of you know, 174 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 3: the canoe go over the cliff and down the waterfall, 175 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 3: I just went, well, I'm on a second, I'm going 176 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 3: to arrest this.
