Ruben wasn't a gifted athlete. He didn't take up the Olympic sport of luge until he was 21. Against all odds, four years and a few broken bones later he was competing in the Calgary Winter Olympics. At the age of 47 he was racing against 20-year-olds at the Vancouver Olympics. If these principles worked for Ruben, they will work for anyone, anywhere, anytime.
