Do you self-identify as sometimes lazy and unmotivated with exercise?
 
I often hear people that struggle with exercise describe themselves in this way.
 
One of the main reasons they are dissatisfied with their health and fitness is because they struggle with motivation.
 
This means they never create change and continue heading in the wrong direction.
 
To me, motivation should be one of the key focuses when you are aiming to bring regular exercise into your life.
 
There’s a strategy that I used called ‘motivation stacking’. It’s a powerful strategy that gets you to a place where you are ‘fired up’ to exercise and keep turning up...which means you get to the place where you are proud of your fitness.
 
If you feel lazy and unmotivated, make sure you watch this video to learn how ‘motivation stacking’ can help up your fitness.

There’s a money management rule that everyone should apply in their lives if they want to have a successful financial future.
It’s called ‘pay yourself first’.
This simple rule says that you should aim to put the first payment from your pay into your long-term investing.
People who follow this rule tend to end up in an amazing place with their finances.
Recently, I was thinking about this rule and how we should apply it to our ‘self-development’ time.
Imagine if you were to commit to the ‘pay myself my development time first’ rule in your life.
Do you think you’d be growing and building the life you love and desire?
In this week’s video, I break down this concept and how you can apply it to your life.
If you feel you need more development time for yourself, this video is for you.

Last weekend, I took on a physical challenge that I failed at.
 
It’s a challenge that I want to conquer, but I’m not sure if I can beat it—it’s that hard.
 
But because I love a challenge, I’m going to attempt it again.
 
So, I thought I’d share how I’ll approach taking on a challenge where there’s a huge amount of doubt.
 
If you sometimes shy away from challenging times or want to face big ones in your life, watch this video.

Like most, I experience moments of insecurity…
 
These moments can lead to feeling consumed by my thoughts.
 
I have a tool that helps me quickly overcome this.

Are you a good team member? 
 
Being in a team is a part of life.
 
Work teams, sport teams, your team of friends, and so on…
 
There are people who enhance the team, that takes the team to a higher place. 
 
Then there are those who restrict the team, sometimes in really negative ways.
 
This week I share a story that taught me about how to be a better team member and the 3 principles I uphold when I’m in that environment.
 
Listen to this video if you want to be a person that is a valued member within the teams you are in.  

Last weekend we had the Christchurch Marathon. It was an amazing day for our half marathon group.
 
We had the most PB’s we have ever had and some people had ‘once in a lifetime performances’.
 
I’ve been reflecting on why we had so many great performances within our team. There are things we know…
 
- Our group training helps people get to their next level.
- Our coaches are experienced and are amazing at guiding and supporting our runners.
- Our runners care about each other and want each other to succeed.
- Our programme prepares our runners for success.
 
After reflecting on this, and those of our runners who nailed their race, I realised there was a key to their performance that was common across these runners and it can teach us an important lesson about high performance.  
 
In this week’s video I teach you how you can become a higher performer in areas of your life that are important to you.
