It Just Takes One Spark To Change an Entire Life
I used to be a hoarder of knowledge. Not anymore. Information is made to be shared and enjoyed, not stored and lost. what I find is all yours.
PODCAST: Motivation
Are you confused about motivation and how to get it? Or do you think you should already have it and are beating yourself up? Listen to Naomi’s and Dominique’s musings about all things motivation here.
Wait For It…
Time as we know it isn’t a thing. It was made up. Numbers and calenders and clocks made profit-making and record-keeping easier, but that doesn’t make time a universal truth. The universe keeps its own time. Universal time is kept by a cyclical, constantly recurring series of natural phenomena. Human time is simply a linear…
Surrendering is the Best Way Forward
Deep listening used to be an issue for me. If I’m honest, I would listen just enough to confirm that my preconceptions and presumptions were true. This was especially true in my professional life. As a coach, I would often, like most rookie trainers, only hear the parts of a client’s conversations that I could…
Stop Being So F**king Mean
Words have power but we throw them around so easily. What you say quite literally creates the version of the world that you live in. So, in a world when you choose to refer to yourself as “gross”, “disgusting”, “lazy”, and worse, do you really think you are going to want to do the things…
Dear Body, I Trust You
When we trust a book, or an app, or a smartwatch/phone/scale/whatever more than we trust our own body it should read as a warning sign. A clear signal that we may be veering off in the wrong direction. I mean, how arrogant would a culture need to be to presume that they could invent technology…
We Steal Exercise From Ourselves
I often say that our movement has been stolen from us by the Fitness Industry. But let’s be honest, they didn’t have to steal anything… we give it to them. Our culture trains humans to be non-movers right from childhood… “Jonny, sit down”. “Naomi, don’t climb on that”. “Billy, stop jumping on the sofa… no…
Get Out of Your Own Way
“I’ve never seen any life transformation that didn’t begin with the person the person in question finally getting tired of their own bullshit.” Elizabeth Gilbert I haven’t posted a blog for ages. I got in my own way. And when that happens I find all manner of elegant excuses not to do the things my…
You Don’t Have to Be an Expert in Throwing
One of my special life skills is throwing. I have always been able to throw stuff reasonably far and with decent accuracy. It’s a pointless skill but it makes me happy. But apparently, there are ‘right‘ and ‘wrong‘ ways to throw. There are techniques that must be followed, and the rules are different for each…
Seth Godin’s Panes of Glass
Seth Godin is my favourite person on the internet. He is wise beyond measure and a kick-ass marketing guru. This is his last blog… We have windowpanes because glass used to be really expensive. Panes allowed us to use smaller sheets, with the added bonus that if one broke, you could simply replace part of…
Snake or Rope?
My awesome mindset coach, Emily Chadbourne, recounted a famous analogy during a group session this morning… Imagine you glimpsed a snake in the corner of your vision. You’d likely spin around super quick, with a pumping heart, muscles tensed, and possibly a little bit of wee trickling down your thigh. But what happens when you…
