Boiled Urine, The AA and A Chance

Ok, so another week begins and we are off and running!

Did you get the email about T.I.N.A , The Tear and The Toilet…..that had a lot of comments and many seemed to agree that TINA and health offer no cheating! Check it out when you get chance, but for now keep reading here!

Lot’s to do and organise this week with my first Jamie Oliver Food Revolution event happening tomorrow night at The Harris Arms.

Incase you didn’t know I am working closely with Jamie Oliver’s Foundation to help spread the message about the origins of our food and help families to eat ‘proper’ (in my best Cornish and Devonshire accent) food.

As an ambassador it is my responsibility to facilitate these kind of events , so if you want to get involved with this I would love your help.

I have checked with Andy and he has confirmed that it is sold out but I will let you know if another one runs at any time.

————————-RESULTS—————————————

The word result can be defined as an outcome, consequence or effect.

Often in my field of expertise results happen in 3 stages.

A client will need to change as a CONSEQUENCE of a few habits they have unfortunately succumbed too!

Don’t we all!

Normally this stems around putting them selves second nearly ALL the time.

They also put the commitments and desires of others before their own.

They , perhaps like you,  often want to change to get of the rut but just not sure how to.

They want the best for their family but always get deterred because healthy eating and exercise apparently takes up too much time……..not the case.

In my next email I will go into more detail about what I believe it takes to get RESULTS….now without blowing my own trumpet , because I actually hate that stuff….I know how to get results and I am getting better at it each day.

But I will save that for the next one.

In my last email I promised you that I would give you the results from the mum I mentioned who was struggling to lose her baby weight.

more results

 

Pretty cool huh, I managed to hook up with this lady at my personal training studio last week to have an interview with her, she shared with us her story that I think many people will find very useful.

I will pop the video over to you sometime its well worth a watch……..to say she had become disillusioned, let down and frustrated are an understatement, but she took action!

More on that another time…………………..

The EFFECT is normally very simply constructed but often seems so far away from them at the start. I often surprise a lot of people with just how simple it is.

The results are always a CONSEQUENCE of a CHANGE!

Because “if nothing changes, nothing changes” right???!

——————- The Boiled Urine and The AA———————

What the hell is he on about I hear you thinking.

You know me, I try to stay positive, and you don’t need to know about the 5H1T that I have to put up with, plus you probably have enough of your own without hearing anyone else’s!

I am not into using social media and the likes as a dumping ground! I actually “unfriend” people who are like that! I call them Sappers, I actually call them Sylvia, so if you here me call you Sylvia , you should be offended!

Back to the boiled urine…….. one thing that gets me going and makes me boil inside is when someone asks me for a programme and to coach them , which I give 100% to, employs me, yes pays me their hard earned cash!

Then try’s to explain and rationalise why they aren’t doing what I have told them will get results….results like the one you saw above!

…………………………………………………………………

Oooohhhh yea I must remember to tell you about this phone call I had this morning it was really kind.

……………………………………………………………………

To me this is a bit like me breaking down on the A30 and calling the AA to come and help me. The AA driver makes the effort to drive all the way to me, look at my car, tell me what’s wrong with it….for me then to tell him how I think he should fix it!

If you were the AA man I think you would be telling me to sit down and pipe down because you had seen this a fair few times before but yet I think I know best!

This gets me going every time!

It’s like the person who asks you the same question five times and expects a different answer each time.

It’s crazy!

It’s almost like mixing salmon and ice cream and expecting it to taste good!

Hey I am not moaning am I, heaven forbid!

………………………………………………………………………

I did have a pretty cool answerphone from one of my old clients who has moved to Gloucestershire this morning …….

I must tell you about next time!

—————– No One Will Give Her A Chance—————

I actually wrote an article about this event…….

but the principle behind it was that I think the youth of today get a rough ride on occasions and often are not given the chance to prove their morality and inner drive!

Here’s what happened!

On a Sunday morning, I was looking for a few trustworthy people to help distribute some flyers for a project that I am running in my community. I was a little overwhelmed by the response to be honest. Particularly as I wanted to get cracking early in the morning and most of the helpers were young. 

So I meet with one of them and get chatting to her, having never met her and I ask her what she wants to do when she’s older. She replies, I want to do personal training. 

She said the trouble is when I ask for work experience they always ask me, “what experience have you had?” her reply is “none because no one will give me any”. 

I was very fortunate as I was able to get work experience in no other than Gold’s Gym, Venice Beach, but that didn’t happen without work. I had to write to them, call them, arrange flights, accommodation and get off my arse at 4am every morning to open up the gym.

So long story short I have offered her a years internship to work alongside me and my team, seeing how we get the results we do and to help her get qualified and share my journey so far with her. 

The great thing that happened on Sunday was that I saw a willingness of these children, who often all get labelled ” the lazy youth of today” by their elders, to get off their backsides and do some work at a pretty unsociable day and hour.

The willingness is there; you just have to give them a chance!

Ok, so that’s it from me
