Positive thinking

What you need to succeed in climbing a difficult route, or doing anything at the limit of ones ability is positive thinking. Climbing is painful and if you don't try hard you won't do it. This is what I told Per yesterday except I said it in Norwegian because I decided about a year ago that I would never speak English with Per again and I haven't, well almost I did once by mistake. Here is a bit of positive thinking; after a night of over indulgence I said to a friend that maybe we had had a bit to much to drink, he replied "well at least we didn't smoke".
