Overcoming Obstacles To Achieve The Extraordinary: My Video Interview With Author John Harlin

Our Oaxaca adventure is behind us, yet we continue to unwrap the gifts of our journey.

One of those I have readied to share with you.

That would be this video interview with John Harlin, world class mountain climber and author of The Eiger Obsession:  Facing The Mountain That Killed My Father.

But I'm getting ahead of myself.

Perhaps you took a peek at my travel reports on my column at examiner.com.

What I didn't get to share about there (yet) is the delightful surprise part of our journey (no, not talking about the Swine Flu).

I mean the part about the extraordinary individuals we found in our neighborhood high in the hills overlooking the Etla Valley above Oaxaca City.

As a matter of fact, I became inspired and whipped out my Flip Cam to shoot a few short videos.

My theme quickly revealed itself:  overcoming obstacles to extraordinary achievement.

This theme ran a close tie to my other, which will emerge in subsequent videos: "extraordinary women doing extraordinary things".

You'll see what I mean.

But one can only edit so many videos in a day, so the rest will arrive as I can edit them.

First up?  My interview with John.
