Growing up for me The Wizard of Oz was probably my first “let’s watch that again!” Movie. If my mum wanted to spoil me or cheer me up- off to the Video rental store we went-yes that long ago! I watched this last week - and after seeing this movie about umm…20 times over the years- I noticed this gold nugget of a saying. I don’t often watch a movie and all of a sudden think “sh*t I need to write that down!!” Certainly not during a kids/musical “focused” movie! 😂 But I’m just going to leave you to ponder this quote. Memorise it!! There are worse things to have in the forefront of your mind!

Such a great insight by David Hornery and Joseph Healy into the journey they went on creating Judo Bank - I’m not about to start a bank (well not in the short term!) but some great insights for creating a business! And with SVB in turmoil - the timing to read a book about banking is ironic!

Let me be a little clearer about that statement. Winners TRY to win, and losers don’t even try. Do you know people that often say things like “It’s too hard”, or “It won’t work”, or “I can’t be bothered” -I’ll bet you any money if they say those things often they haven’t achieved too much in their life?! And I’ll also bet spending time with them isn’t uplifting or inspirational? If you agree with what I am saying - why keep spending time with them? We all know we become like the people we spend most time with- how do those people look when you think about that?

How good is this - who’s up for some exercise on a Saturday morning?! 😃 Simon Says Personal Training - SSPT

Loved this episode on Australian Story on Russell Manser - he’s been through some terrible experiences- and he has committed some terrible crimes which he owns up to -but he’s shown you can turn things around -despite what one suffers- if you want it enough! He knows his job still is not done - and I’m sure that’s what motivates him to keep going every day! Keep it up Russell - living is giving!! 👊🏾

We all know that roughly 80% of people give up on their NY’s Ever resolution’s. These are normally the “goals” people set for them selves. They give up! So each year 80 % of people give up on their future? Let’s not sugar coast this people. How sad is that? Are you one of those? One client called me an accountability coach - sure that’s part of what I do. I can’t do it for you. And I tell clients when they come on board- don’t sign up with me and don’t pay me if you are not committed to action and change. If you are struggling to stay motivated or struggling to know what the next step is- sign up for my 12 week program- I can assure you - we will achieve twice as much in 12 weeks as you will on your own!

It’s US Masters Week - so seems appropriate I have my first lesson with none other than - coach of World #6 Cam Smith!! As I say to my clients - all the advice and coaching in the world is useless unless you are willing to put in the effort. The main photo shows me leaving the practice range almost in the dark! Everyone had gone home. You want results - you need to put in the hard work!! Enjoy the journey though!! 💪

I just had a Facebook reminder of this post from 6 years ago!!! Talk about flashbacks! I have started two more business’s since that article was written - and the facts remain- the harder you work - the “luckier” you get. That doesn’t mean good luck comes your way - that means results comes your way! Some people see someone in a nice car or a nice house and go “they are lucky” - yes they are lucky to have that -100%. But unless it was a lottery or inheritance- chances are they worked their butts off for it! Good on them! How often do you hear someone say “oh I wish I could be on a doctors salary” - how about going to medical school for 7-10 years - how do you feel about that?! Those doctors worked hard - and now they are lucky. If you are thinking of starting a business - how hard are you prepared to work? How little income are you willing and able to live on for as long as it takes to make money? If you don’t mind hard work - GO FOR IT!

I love this quote! People often can fall victim to “analysis paralysis” - you want to make a big change in your life - but fear takes over - so what do you do? Look at all the pros and cons - all the things you have to do etc etc and before you know it -an opportunity has passed and who knows where that might have taken you?! Another area this quote applies is to is starting a business - think of all the successful business’s out there - at their core - is simplicity. McDonalds for example almost “brags” that it’s systems are so solid and consistent- they can employ “idiots” - and the business still runs like clockwork! I use those words loosely - to make a point. I worked at Mc Donald’s - and learned a lot - not about cooking - but about systems and structure and employees playing their role.
So if you feel like you’ve wanted to do something for a while? Are you over analysing things too much? Are you emphasising too much on the cons and not enough on what great things might occur? What’s the worst that occur? Will life go on if “that” happens? Are you strong enough to recover if it does result the way you want? If so - why keep waiting?

So in 5 weeks (well 4 weeks and 6 days but who’s counting! 😜🙋🏻‍♂️)we went from getting the keys to a former real estate agency- to opening a brand new laundromat! I was told 6-8 weeks by someone that has opened 5 laundromats . My wife responded to this person “you haven’t met my husband”. What’s the secret - it’s no secret - hard work, persisting, determination…..and coffee (just joking!). It’s been a lot of work, managing a lot of trades , and as much as people may think “the hard work is done now” - unfortunately that is not the case. No business runs it’s self - and anyone who says they have a business that does is either delusional or misleading you. As much as we started our marketing 3 months ago - we can it now ! As says we need to get obsessed or be average! Follow .com.au on Instagram for updates on our journey! Do you need a hand with your business / business idea? This is my third business currently operating- I’d love to help you on that long hard (and rewarding!) road! Get in touch for a free zoom call to find out more.

Progress! Brand new machines in and due to open in days!! So much still to do! Hard work but satisfying. Plastering , painting, flooring, signage all still to go - and 2-3 weeks to do it all!!

Many of us often feel like we should discover something we do for employment that we “absolutely LOVE”….as much as I am an advocate for “high standards” - often we have unrealistic standards. Choosing your career or employer isn’t a case of searching for “unbeatable satisfaction” - it’s about doing what we enjoy - doing what gives us fulfilment- a combination of satisfaction and enjoyment. If you don’t know what that is for you - I recommend getting a blank piece of paper - two columns - on one side - things that interest you - put as many things as you can think of. Then, column two - what employment opportunities relate to those things you write in column one? That’s step one ! You’ve got this!
