We have two main emotional drivers Fear and Desire. Unfortunately we spend more time being fearful! You see the subconscious mind is our protector (fight or flight response) but it is also debilitating. Fear not only stops us from success but it makes us sick too. If we spend too much time living fearful we … Read moreWe have a desire for fear!
It’s a human condition and happens to all of us. There is nothing wrong with feeling this way only if we don’t know how to deal with it will it affect us. So Switch off.

It takes mastering the little things to go from being great to awesome. Hard work is a given and we have accepted that there is no trophy for participating. You win or you lose. Don’t justify a loss by stating that you only lost by 1 point. You lost! In order to grow you need … Read moreYou need to be uncomfortable to grow!

It’s only when you get to the later years that you may realize you spent … Read moreInvest in life not assets
We read a lot of stories Some of them are good and some bad. But it’s the ones we chose to believe and live and re-tell that are the problems.
