BEST HABIT OF 2020👌🧻⁣
⁣
There were a few thoughts I would expect to start lurking in the back of my mind at Christmas in the past.⁣
⁣
"I really should be further along in my life..."⁣
⁣
I often had this underlying energy of "NOT this... I really DON'T want to feel like this next year... "⁣
⁣
My entire focus was on things I did NOT want to feel or did NOT have. Fail 🤦🏼‍♀️⁣
⁣
One thing I have realised this year and wanted to share is the power of gratitude - in ANY situation.⁣
⁣
I have the G word written on my bathroom mirror so it's the first thing I see when I wake up as my brain starts (slowly) coming to life, and one of the last things I see before bed. ⁣
⁣
I literally spend a couple of minutes staring in the mirror, focussing on a few things that I'm genuinely thankful for. Sometimes it's really deep and meaningful stuff like having good toilet paper, nice tasting toothpaste or a good pair of tweezers handy to pluck my cursed eyebrows with...⁣
⁣
Other days it's stuff I won't make lame jokes about. Like simply having woken up, the sun being out or the freedom to walk along the beach to get a coffee.⁣
⁣
I share this because intentionally making this practice part of my day as soon as I'm awake, has TRULY changed my life for the better.⁣
⁣
I'm calmer, more relaxed about starting my day, not so hard on myself for various things and generally a lot less triggered by stupid stuff that may play out throughout the day.⁣
⁣
Gratitude costs nothing. Most of the things I find myself being grateful for cost very little or nothing at all. ⁣
⁣
Take a breath and focus on what you HAVE got 🙏⁣
⁣
Even if it's just that incredible feeling of soft, luxurious 3ply loo roll on your bum during a visit to the bathroom at some point... there was a time not so long ago when a lot of people couldn't get it 🤪⁣
⁣
I jest. But you'll be surprised how much implementing a bit of extra gratitude - in even the silliest of moments - can change your state of mind. Which in turn will change your life. ⁣

Happy Christmas Eve Team!🎄🥰

A DIFFERENT WORLD...🤔💭⁣
⁣
While taking a much needed solo walk in nature this morning, I passed this historic site of an old sawmill. ⁣
⁣
A few thoughts crossed my mind as I stood imagining what it would have been like to be here when it was active.⁣
⁣
👉 That looks like a lot of bloody hard graft - especially here in Queensland during the summer months 🥵⁣
⁣
👉 Who truly profited here? The people providing a new tool and solution for improving their industry at the time (not the people rocking up for work each day like robots, sweating their t**s off operating it)⁣
⁣
👉 Grateful for the freedom to go for a walk in the rainforest at 10am on a Tuesday and get these unexpected lessons 🙏⁣
⁣
👉 Happy to be reminded that we now live in an entirely different age where so much of that hard graft and sweating off of t**s can be done by technology - not actual humans who have SO MUCH MORE to offer with their time and energy 🙌🏼⁣
⁣
Why share this story? 🧐⁣
⁣
Increasing your bank balance doesn’t have to look like blood, sweat and tears. (Unless you enjoy that kinda thing).⁣
⁣
Take the time to figure out who you are FIRST. Read books, listen to podcasts, open up and TALK to people. Find ways to be grateful and happy with where you’re at today. ⁣
⁣
There are numerous ways to earn while you learn - but keep the focus on FEELING good.⁣
⁣
Improving your finances, your health, any of your relationships (and yes, your s*x life!) will be one hard slog without this foundation! 😜⁣
⁣
Use the creativity and energy you’ll get from that ⤴️ happiness to solve real problems in the real world we are in right now. ⁣
⁣
It’s a very different one to that of the saw mill...👊🏼💰

HIGHER highs... LOWER lows...🎢⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣
As I turned *ahem* another year older last week, I reflected on this ⤴️ and 100% believe it's the simplest 'secret' in getting what you want in ALL areas of life. (Also part of that logo inspo👆😝⁣)⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Money is a pretty good analogy for it though so here's a recent l'il personal story as to why.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
For context - in February 2018, I watched about $15k go up (or down!) in smoke in the cryptocurrency market in the space of 4months 😰⁣⁣
⁣⁣
This week, I made that amount in the space of 5days. More importantly - I kept hold of it.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Meanwhile, a lot of people new to crypto are currently in the proverbial 💩 after getting all excited that this would be the thing that saved them 'overnight' from circumstances that were already less than ideal.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Read that again...⤴️ How often do we do the same with our health and relationships? One quick fix fad diet to the next. Out of the frying pan of one relationship, in to the 🔥of the next!⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣
My 2018 vs 2020 crypto experiences brought some lessons that have seen me profit in ALL areas of my life. As such, I am no longer referring to 2020 as a "giant turd" of a year! 🤭⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣
1️⃣ Invest in YOU first. In any area of life, pay to learn from those with results. ⁣
⁣
The ROI is infinite (providing you do the work!). I spent £382 on a cryptocurrency course 2weeks ago. The return has (so far) been 20x ⁣⁣💰⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣
2️⃣ Get uncomfortable and take CALCULATED risks. Not reckless action! 🤦‍♀️⁣⁣
⁣⁣
3️⃣ When things are good, take SOME profit - reinvest the rest. Acknowledge it, be grateful, but keep growing. Don't get greedy, complacent or so blinkered in the excitement or chasing that by the time you look up, you've sabotaged something else.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
4️⃣ When things are bad, hang in there. It's scary, but find a way to invest even more. The 'dips' are where the gold is ✨⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I believe every single one of us is EXACTLY where we need to be right now.⁣⁣⁣⁣ Just keep riding it out and trust that the rewards are on their way.⁣⁣⁣ ⁣
⁣
Oh, and if you're ready to put 1️⃣ in to action, check out the link in the comments 📲👌

One of those posts where reading the caption is kinda important for full context ⤵️⁣
⁣
So I posted a little story 'off the cuff' after (during) a workout yesterday. It got possibly the biggest response in terms of private messages I've ever had, so I figured it warranted sharing here with a couple of thoughts 💡⁣
⁣
Some found plenty of humour in it, others more sombre and thankful to know they're not alone in their pelvic floor struggles. The latter being one of the founding principles behind my emphatic belief in the power of being your most authentic self AT ALL TIMES, IN ALL AREAS OF LIFE 🙌⁣
⁣
It got me thinking on a whole new level when it comes to the impact we can collectively have when we put aside the concern of how good/bad we may look and allow the most raw, real, unplanned, honest version of ourselves to interact with the world without overthinking whether our every move is appropriate or acceptable. ⁣
⁣
Between replying to said messages, I noticed yesterday was also - a perfect reminder of the fragility of life and the opportunities we have to live it as best we can. ⁣
⁣
Not to mention the difference it can make to take the time to speak up, have important (often uncomfortable) conversations, ask questions and SHARE the less-than-awesome things in our lives that might just inspire another human on the brink to stick around a bit longer, because - again - they're not alone 💜⁣
⁣
If 2020 hasn't been a massive kick up the arse in this respect, then hopefully me pi***ng myself during a skipping rope workout will be. For the first time in a while, I didn't overthink whether or not sharing this would be "too much" for some people. It was. But for others, it was something they appreciated hearing. ⁣
⁣
Ego or impact? You choose 👊🏼⁣
⁣
PS Thank you to all those who sent messages - lots of mental notes made and very disappointed that visiting trampoline parks has now been crossed off of potential leisure activities list moving forward. Sorry but I'm sure you'll be glad of this news - probably enough cleaning measures already in place at the moment, right? 🙈

It really is NEVER too late to go after your dreams and goals... 🙌🏼💥⁣
⁣
Some Friday feels and life advice from my bonafide legend of a grandmother, Lils, who left us 3years ago today 💜⁣
⁣
One morning - at approximately 85years of age - while compiling her weekly shopping list for us, she noted that she was out of night cream for her face. ⁣
⁣
Having seen some apparently compelling television ads, she’d decided it was time for an upgrade to her skin care regime. ⁣
⁣
She would now settle for nothing other than the very premium option of Nivea Q10 - the ‘Anti Wrinkle’ variety. ⁣
⁣
When it was pointed out that this was a mere £9 a pot (thimble sized), her response was simply “ooh that’s a lot... well, it’s worth it”. ⁣
⁣
So there you have it people. PROOF that it’s never too late to adopt a growth mindset. ⁣
⁣
Even at 85, Lils was still setting those and not letting money get in the way of raising her standards until the day she stepped off this mortal coil at 97 🥰⁣
⁣
Be like Lils 💪🏼💕👊🏼

✨🎆 BABY, YOU'RE A FIREWORK... 🎇✨⁣
(that's right - continuing the theme right now... )⁣
⁣
NEVER underestimate the value of your unique life experiences, perspectives, knowledge, interests, passions and even your pet peeves (you've probably shared posts from channels who are making a fortune from having a right good rant - I know I have!)⁣
⁣
They can ALL make you an income when you have the skills to share them with the world via this clever little thing called the internet 💻🌎⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It's my mission to help you on your way to discovering how to 'Be You' and 'Get Paid' - whatever that could mean for you.⁣ ⁣

CH*****NE PROBLEMS 🥂🍾⁣
I am a total groupie fan (I'm talking screaming, teenage level) of .⁣
⁣
She dropped a new album on Friday (while also dropping a baby - because she's a legend) which I've pretty much been listening to non-stop all weekend. One of the tracks is called and it reminded me of a conversation I had with my financial coach Mike a while back...⁣
⁣
While there's some truth in the expression "more money more problems", we decided after a very short discussion, that it's still 100% preferable to have certain problems with more money! 😝⁣
⁣
Our conclusion was this...⁣
⁣
OLD PROBLEMS⁣
❓"shall we go on holiday this year?"⁣
❓"there's some good concerts on this year - whose should we book?"⁣
⁣
"CH*****NE" PROBLEMS⁣
🍾 "shall we fly premium economy or business class?"⁣
🥂 "shall we book the standard ticket or go for the VIP Pit Experience?" (it was well worth the upgrade!)⁣
⁣
Obviously 2020 has brought plenty of people a lot of unexpected problems. And that definitely sucks 🙈⁣
That said... SOME problems are completely avoidable and within our control.⁣
⁣
(CLUE: like making more money if we have access to the internet...📲💰)⁣
⁣
So - in the words of , if you're going to have problems, "put the dirty work in" (yes, that's a directly quoted lyric) and make sure they are of the "ch*****ne" variety 🥂🍾
