Past simple

This is me, Aamir Khan with Jeff and I was here in New York for a few days.

To-infinitive

Jeff didn’t’ know this, but I used to watch a lot of his videos and I’m one of

thousands of people who has been watching his videos and learning from him.

So, I was very surprised when he did that video on [inaudible 0:00:25].

AAMIR: So, when I was here, I thought I should look you up and say ‘hi’.

The thing I wanted to tell you, which I told you the other day, is a lot of people think

I changed my body entirely in five months.

But as I mentioned to you earlier, I actually built the muscle over two years.

AAMIR: Even before that, I was training for Dhoom 3 and PK.

But I started building the size of my muscles, specifically, because I was being a wrestler.

So, in that five-month transformation it’s me just cutting fat while building muscle.

JEFF: One of the things we were talking about that I thought would be valuable to anyone

watching, you said something about one of your approaches and mentality that you had

when you’re looking at a transformation down the road.

You know where you’ve got to get to from where you are right now.

JEFF: And even though I’m saying I think you have the capacity to do it a little easier

because of your past it’s still a long way out.

So, I was telling Jeff when I started to lose weight and started to get back into shape

I was so far gone that when I started the process at the end of the first week, or second

week, when I looked at myself – in one week, you don’t really see a change.

I was like “I’m not going to make it.”

AAMIR: I’ve taken on more than I can chew and I’m never going to make it.

Because everything you do becomes much more difficult to do.

So, I was so disheartened, and I was thinking “I’m never going to do it.”

The one thing that saved me, Jeff, and kept me on track was, I told myself “Don’t

look at where you’re supposed to get to in five months because right now that looks

JEFF: What you’re saying, it’s deflating, almost.

I said “Let me now look at where I’m supposed to be because it’s too difficult.

Let me just look at what I’m supposed to do today.

In the Fat to Fit video you’ll hear me saying it again, and again.

Just look at what you’re supposed to do today.

So, if you’re trying to climb Mount Everest don’t look at the peak.

Ask yourself “Where am I supposed to put my next step?”

Just put your next step forward and look down.

Suddenly, before you know it, if you look up much later, you’ll be like “Whoa.

JEFF: And finishing becomes so much easier because once you’re – you look up and

you look back down and you realize you’ve climbed half the mountain already.

JEFF: Or if you look in the mirror and you’re like “Wow.

I’m actually starting to see a whole lot of changes.”

JEFF: Now you’re able to do it, but people that make the goal – because we’re always

JEFF: But it’s there for identification only.

To say ‘yes, this is this, but more importantly, what is the process to get there?’

Once the process is identified, then focusing on that process is everything.

I know how meticulous you are, in terms of professionally, as an actor.

Everything for you is about preparation, and mindset, and everything.

JEFF: So, it’s extremely important for people to take that same approach to this as if it’s

a long-term project that becomes a series of short-term achievements.
