THINKING BIG By Skip
La Cour COMMENTS
 "I
am almost finished with your book Thinking Big. This is absolutely incredible
piece of work. It was inspired me to raise my standards and expect more from
myself. Keep putting out this kind of material, I truly think it can be a huge
influence on a person standards in life. Since, I started reading the book I
have now set many goals in bodybuilding as well as in other aspects of my life.
I have decided to try to graduate with the highest honors in business from the
University of Texas and then get my MBA from Harvard. Your book has made me
believe anything is possible. I also don't think this book is just for
bodybuilders, I am having my girlfriend read it to help increase her motivation
to pursue her dreams. Thank you so much. Keep up the good work."

"I just received your book, Thinking Big, in the mail on Friday. I was more
than excited to see your name on the return label, so I immediately opened it
and started reading. It's Monday, and I have read it twice cover to cover, and
am nearing finishing chapter one exercises. Your book is AWESOME!!! As you say
in Thinking Big, a lot of this is not new to us, and the more I read, the more I
realized that over the last 6 years I have "shot gunned" my attention
and focus,
instead of "rifle". This book has served as a great wake-up call. I
also want to say thank you for the note you wrote on the inside cover. As if the
book isn't inspiring enough, that note is pure inspiration! Thank you! Have you
ever heard of the Greek dramatist Aeschylus? He made an observation that goes,
‘When a man's ready and willing, the gods join in.’ Thank you for showing me
the path.

"I bought a copy of your Thinking Big book at MuscleMag International in
Carl Place, New York. It seems very insightful and motivating. You add a lot of
hope to the natural bodybuilding community. I have a lot of respect for you
because of that!"

"I have been a fan of yours for a few years now. You are a true
inspiration to me. I have your book Thinking Big and your Live Seminar Videos.
Both the book and the videos are very helpful and motivational. You are a great
role model for those of us that choose to train naturally."

"I just finished your book, Thinking Big. I just wanted you to know the impact I
feel your book will have on me. I am 29 years old, and within the past year, I have found
the gym. I am looking forward to losing 25-30 pounds and replacing that with muscle! My
biggest problem with weight loss is lack of discipline. After reading your book, I quickly
realized that I had no short or long term goals. I sat down and completed them after much
thought. It is after reading your book that I feel that there is nothing to stand in my
way in the gym or at work. I also have the new perspective at how I am to look at building
my body. I want to say thanks to you for the inspiration! You see, your book is the first
that I have read about bodybuilding and I am glad that my friend gave it to me. My friend
spoke highly of you due to your drug-free status and you honesty. He saw you at the Arnold
Classic and said you were much the gentlemen compared to others. Your positive outlook is
inspiring to me and I am sure many others. I hope to read more of your books in the future
and plan to visit your website regularly. I know I will write to you in one year and tell
you of my success. Keep up the inspiring talk and, I am ‘Thinking Big’"!

"I just ordered your book Thinking Big. And I must say I was on fire after reading
it! Thank you for inspiring me to reach for the stars! And, thank you for signing the
book. It means a great deal to me. I will send you before and after pictures in a very
short time. I still have more muscle to gain and more fat to lose but it's a fight I face
with a great desire to win. I look forward to competing in bodybuilding with many great
bodybuilders who share in the same work ethic I have learned. Thank you once again for
your inspiration."

Thinking Big. I just wanted to personally thank you for signing it and writing your very
inspirational message. You truly are an inspiration to all of us."

"I thoroughly enjoyed Thinking Big and I eagerly await the release of the sequel.
I'm 33 years old and I've been seriously training for about 14 months now. With two
artificial hips because of arthritis, I'm always trying new methods to grow without
stressing those artificial joints. Your message of motivation and empowerment in all areas
of one's life has been very inspiring. Thanks again for being a catalyst for positive
change in so many people's lives."

"I read Thinking Big last year and it really helped me to get my training back on
track. I've gained some quality mass, thanks to your tips, both from your book and your
monthly columns in Ironman. The most useful was training each body part hard once a week.
I've found that my time in the gym is considerably shorter than previously and I'm getting
more out of it. Thanks!"

"Man, I got to tell you that I think you are pretty damn awesome! Not only in the
physique department but in the mind as well. Thinking Big was very well-written and
personally beneficial in getting me out of my negative thinking patterns. Much
thanks!"
"Thanks for your brilliant Daily Training Journal and Thinking Big. They will be
an essential part of my competing next year."

"Even though you have not met me physically I want to thank you for all of your
help. I have developed a greater focus now that I am following Thinking Big and I am goal
setting. I hope I get the honor to meet you some day. By the way, I will be one of those
future bodybuilders who will take it to the next level. Thanks for the PUSH!!!"

"You are so motivational...I'm ready to make the sacrifice to become the
best...especially after reading your book. I use to really look up to Arnold, but he was
‘juiced’! You're natural...You're who I look up to and hope to be successful
like now."

"I received your book Thinking Big about a week ago and I’d like to say thank
you big. I read the whole thing the day it came in. I couldn’t put it down. Anyway, I
swear my workouts improved 100 percent. Want more? As you said, these concepts could and
should be applied to everything in life. Well, I’m doing just that and even my school
work has improved. I’m on the road to being able to say ‘I gave 100 percent back
then’ when I am 80 years old. You’ve really made a difference in my life.
Thanks.

I just received your book Thinking Big and I would really like to thank you for
personally signing it. I will be also ordering Successful Strategies For Drug-Free Muscle
Mass in the very near future. If it isn't too much to ask, I would also really appreciate
that copy to as personally sign by you. Thank you again for your great information,
insight, perspectives and support. You also have gained both my respect and loyalty. You
also are a fantastic role model. Let's build for the Masses."

"Your book really helped me a lot. Now I feel that I'm growing every time I
workout. Thanks a lot."

"I just wanted to write a short message to tell you that I just finished your book
Thinking Big. I think that it was the single most informative piece of literature that has
and will ever help me. I know that if I am to ever have a sticking point or any of
life’s little bumps that all that I would have to do is just pick up your book again
and read it all over again. I also want to let you know that I thought the chapter on
setting goals very inspiring. After reading and really deciding on my goals, I finally
realized that anything is possible if you really want it and want to go get it bad enough.
I have made some very lofty, and some may say unattainable goals for the next year and
five years to come. I have always been very interested in bodybuilding. Since I can
remember and have always wondered what kind of physique I could earn if I really put my
mind to it. Well, thanks to you and your book I have made the decision to finally see what
my mind and body can do now that I have a clear and precise goal to shoot for. I know that
you probably get thousands of e-mails a day like this one but I just wanted to write this
to tell you, ‘Thanks Mr. La Cour, thanks for everything!’"
"Thinking Big is REALLY good. I really enjoyed it. I read it once already and plan
to read it over again and fill out the exercises. You really did a great job on it and you
really do a great job on helping other people reach their full potential. If only the
fitness community had more people like you."
Travis Sisco

"I wanted to drop a note and thank you for the tremendous example that you have
given drug-free bodybuilders worldwide. You are an amazing individual in the fact that you
always find some way of achieving what others will say is impossible. Thinking Big is a
phenomenal book, and has completely changed the way I view my physique goals. I personally
have used it to forward myself in the ANBC my interactions with others, and have bettered
myself and my placing for it. Thanks Again, and Keep Hard!"
Ed Bednar III

"I received your book Thinking Big for my birthday and read that from cover to
cover. Although you have already motivated me a lot from your articles in
Ironman, your
book Thinking Big put me over the edge. If there were any doubts in my mind about my
potential or my drive to become ‘outstanding,’ that book put those thoughts to
rest. Your book, along with your articles have helped put everything into focus for me and
have given me the knowledge to become, not only the best bodybuilder I can be, but also
the best person I can be!"
Marc Platt
St. Clair Shores, MI
"Great article on anchoring and rituals. It really helped me understand what and
how you are doing it. By the way I purchased your "Thinking Big" book. It's by
far one of the best books on motivation, it really has helped me to understand how to
motivate myself. After having listed my goals and all the compelling reasons along with
the consequences, I can't wait to train. The only thing I do differently is I typed up all
the reasons and then as you point out in your training journal I now review them every
morning and before I train. If the why is big enough the how doesn't matter. I am 43 years
old and I have set some ambitious goals for myself. I only wish I had bought your book
sooner!
Bert Hernandez
"I just finished reading "Thinking Big", and I wanted to express my
gratitude for your contributions to the sport of drug free bodybuilding. The book was
outstanding to say the least, and my workouts have already improved with my new
appreciation and outlook toward my goals. Since I began working out 6 years ago, I have
added 63 pounds to my previously frail frame. With the guidance and direction that your
book has provided, I look forward to each additional pound of quality mass that I can
add."
