Wishing you an amazing December to remember!
9 years ago tonight, since I appeared on the X Factor helping one of the contestants with a form of performance anxiety.
Something I’ve helped many successful professionals with over the years, in the world of sport, business and entertainment.
Very often these individuals are at the top of their game, complete naturals at what they do and others would probably be very surprised that they even had their struggles.
But one thing they all have in common is, they are human beings, and as humans, not one of us, are immune to experiencing any kind of feelings.
But just in the same way we can train our physical body, we can train our mindset, our habits, thoughts and our feelings.
If you want to get fitter and stronger, or needed to do some rehab to recover from a physical injury, you wouldn’t give yourself a hard time for it, you’d just do it.
So, why not approach your mind fitness in the same way, approach it in a way that you can develop and enhance it and learn ways to maintain a good level of fitness that benefits you in your life.
In the same way there is an abundance of ways to get fit and keep fit physically, there isn’t a one size fits all, there any many different ways to get mind fit.
Be open to exploring what benefits you most, be consistent and keep going!
You wouldn’t go to the gym, or for a walk or run once and then expect to be, and stay in peak physical condition.
The same is true if you were choosing to develop a new habit, or learn a new skill like learning a language or playing an instrument.
You don’t pick up an instrument once and then expect to master it, you get better by consistent effort and practice.
So, if you want to change or improve anything, first make the decision to do it, commit to it and then make consistent action towards making it happen and get better as go!
If you have any questions, or you need any help making a change, or want to improve your mind fitness get in touch, I may be able
to help, or point you in the right direction.

I’m so busy, I don’t have enough time…
I hear this a lot, and it’s usually from the people who need to chill out the most.
Even when you’re busy, or in a busy environment, it’s always beneficial to take a few minutes to simply stop, just pause, breath, look up and around, come to your senses, whatever works for you, just do it regularly and notice how much better you feel.
I often walk through Cavendish Square Gardens when I’m seeing clients in central London, so you can’t get much busier than the hustle and bustle of London life, but just a few moments walking through, helps to reset and rebalance.
Where is your favourite place to get some quiet, calm time and hit the reset button?

I've just had a chat with someone who has been recommended to me to help them Stop Smoking. I helped their friend and their friends sister, both heavy, long term smokers.
His words were "If you can help them stop, you can help anyone!"
I was also reminded of this old video from 2007. In the build up to Smoke Free England on 1st July 2007, I was asked by ITV’s News to assist one of their viewers, in their efforts to successfully stop smoking in time for the Smoking ban.
If you want to Stop smoking, or any habit, you can!

Good luck to everyone getting their today. I’ll repeat what I shared last week on A-level results day.
I hope your hard work has paid off and you get the results you want.
But if you didn't get the results you wanted, head up, your results will not define you, or your future.
They may help pave the way for the next chapter, but they don’t determine your whole life!
If you want to achieve something enough, there is always a way. And if you don’t know what you want to do yet, then that’s ok too.
You never know what wonderful opportunities may be ahead of you, sometimes what seems like a setback, is actually a re-direction towards something amazing!
You have your whole life ahead of you, be open, look forward and enjoy whatever exciting opportunities are in front of you!

“Imperfect action is better than perfect inaction.”Harry S. Truman
Don’t wait for things to be perfect, just get started. Decide what you want to achieve and then focus on what action can you take today and in the next 7 days to help you move forward towards it and then keep going until you make it happen!
