I’m currently enjoying a few days away with Alex, my girlfriend and family.
My boys aren’t here (with their mum this weekend), so it’s the first holiday in a while that I’ve been able to get some serious reading done and I’m finishing off several of the books I’ve had waiting for a while.
Most of them are related to psychology and the process of change.
Although we try to give you guys the very best in everything related to exercise and nutrition, most people know the basics (eat more healthily and do some exercise), but struggle to integrate this into their lives.
Most people in our industry concentrate on just ‘telling people what they should be doing’ over and over again.
This invariably leads to people feeling like they’ve ‘failed’ or there’s ‘something wrong with them’ when they don’t manage to ‘do it’.
We’ve always known the biggest wins are in creating an environment and a ‘journey’ that make change as easy as possible.

The more I’ve learnt about all this over the years, the more I’m bought back to one over-riding truth: “Everything you need is already within you”.
Successful change isn’t about ‘adding’ more to you.
We live in a society that is already ‘too much’.
We’re already overloaded from all sides – too much information, stress, etc from all angles 24 hours a day.
What we need is to remove things.
Remove the false perceptions that pervade our society.
Remove the ‘normal’ ways of thinking that are trained into us from childhood.
Remove the conflicting, self-serving hyperbole that confuses us all.
Remove the self-limiting beliefs that we develop.
Everything you need IS already within you.
You just need to put yourself in an environment where the real you can step to the front!
We’ll be doing some videos on this soon – keep your eyes peeled 🙂
