What an intensive experience this has all been. I'm back home after an incredible journey of even more self discovery and even though I've been waking up the last 4 nights repeatedly, getting restless sleep and my energy is totally drained, I've been refilled by the sheer power of positivity from my fellow life students at the Chris Howard training programs.
Today was the last day of the intensive platform skills course and also the day of my official graduation from the Academy of Wealth and Achievement. What a journey it has been.
I remember when I first stepped foot into the IBIS hotel back in March 2009 that I had no idea what BTS was about. I was however prepared to leave all my preconceptions outside the door and go into this seminar with an open mind and an open heart.
What hit me was like a ton of bricks smashing down from a 100ft fall. It hit hard and smashed open many issues that were present in my life that I had either swept underneath the carpet, or I was even totally unaware of them myself.
What happened the next 3 days throughout the Breakthrough to Success weekend would change my life forever, and forever for the better.Read the rest of this entry »

I’m thinking back to a movie I’ve seen a couple of times called Big Fish. In this movie, the protagonist is a character that finds himself looking for more in life and embarks on a journey to discover the world around him. One quote which I’m thinking of in particular goes like this: “Has it ever occurred to you that maybe you're not too big? That maybe this place is just too small?”, Edward Bloom, the main character asks this question of Karl, a giant.
At the times when we become seekers and begin on our own journeys, we start to expand our experiences in life and consequently our minds expand. Even a simple holiday to an unknown culture will inevitably expand your mind through the experiences you will gain from being in that foreign land.
One of the most difficult things about moving forward in life is that more often than not, there are people holding you back. In fact, it is often the case that there are many more people holding you back, than there are those pulling you forward. I’ve heard this from many people, and I’ve personally experienced this as well.

How many times in a day do you think you will hear from yourself or from other people, the word “try”? - Oh, when are you going to get that report done for me? - I’ll try and get it done by the end of the day. - Are you going to win that contract with X? - I’ll try my best to. - Darling, can you book some tickets for the Lion King tonight. - I’ll try to get hold of some later.
Life doesn’t work this way, if you always end up trying, you’ll never end up doing. Think of it like this, do you only try to wash your face in the morning, or do you only try to make a cup of coffee, or do you only try to read a book?
