from the mountains to the hills

So I just finished a 2 week wrestling camp in Tbilisi, Georgia.
Think it's my fourth time in Tbilisi.
If you're curious bout my other travels to Tbilisi and how I first got there.
So what can I say about the camp?
I had a dope ass time.
But my productivity was SHOT.
For some reason I thought that training twice a day would "lock me in" and I'd get crazy work done.
It was the exact opposite.
I was injured, tired, or hungry for majority of the time.
All I wanted to do was sleep or eat.
Tried to force myself to hit the coffee shop and get work done.
But I'd just stare at the screen trying not to doze off.
It was a bit much to try and do 2 trainings a day.
Also hurt my shoulder badly because I never learned how to do a proper underhook.
I have to say the live wrestling rounds where hella fun.
It's a lot different, way faster and more explosive than BJJ rounds.
It exposed how bad my conditioning is, and how physically weak I am.
Felt like I was training with 2 left feet.
Besides the training there was also a LOT MORE DRINKING and PARTYING than I expected.
The guys from the training camp, and some local Georgian wrestlers were always down to DRINK.
Maybe you know but Georgia has great wine from their region Kakheti.
Also they got their own shots called Chacha.
It's 40%+ and got different flavors, so it's easy to get wasted.
If you want recommendations to go out to there's Fabrika.
Which is like a hostel and a courtyard where people just go drink.
There's also Zeche, same thing.
Then there's a big ass street full of bars, alternative vibe, hipster, type thing.
-> Vashlovani street
For clubs the only one I went to was Mtkvarze.
They play techno there.
So after getting SMAAASHED in the gym we got SMASHED by booze.
That's pretty much a one line summary for the past 2 weeks.

I need to sell something in this newsletter but don't really have anything planned due to my schedule.
I'm flying on the 28th.
So between now and then, reply to this email and let me know WHAT MY NEXT LIVE WEBINAR should be about.
// ADVERTISMENT END
Currently in Istanbul for a layover.
Wasn't really planning on staying here.
But since I have a friend in Istanbul, I decided to stop and chill with him a bit.
He arranged a 2 man for us the day I arrived.
This lyric pretty much sums up the vibe of my friend and his girl.
We went to a go to spot in Ortaköy with good sisha and food.
After which we hit a local bar.
And then a club.
Check my last Istanbul letter for the location recs.
I'll have to say this was one of the WORST 2 mans I've had in my life.
The vibe was just awkward.
Shit was like oil and water.
I was so bored I started jestermaxxing trying to entertain myself.
Worst part of all, the girl bought concert tickets for the 4 of us to meet again the next day.
Of course I skipped that one and opted to go train BJJ instead at a local gym.
But bless, at least my friend got business done.
Maybe in my next letter I'll write about the most fun 2 mans I had in Mexico.
Which was also the trip for the Clickbank Platinum invite only $250k event.
This letter was pretty unstructured and I feel like I need to leave you with some lesson for reading this far.
A member in my telegram channel, quite a young guy from Milan, just got his first 2 sales running an audio offer.
I've discussed this indepth in my last live webinar.
But typically, the simpler the product, the easier it is to sell.
It's a lesson I often forget my self.
Sometimes I make things too fancy, too complex, some crazy system.
That often fails on cold traffic.
You have to dumb things down.
One simple trick.
60 second hack.
One night time ritual.
Etc, etc...
Especially when it comes to the FIRST sale.
I was thinking about this when I couldn't sleep when my back was cooked from wrestling.
At that point I just wanted ONE SIMPLE HACK to get instant relief for my back pain so I could go to sleep.
That's your one lesson for today.
Talk soon,
Zhihao Huang
