Looking forward to this.
@tomblackledge has cornered against me a few times in the past. Always enjoyed his work as a coach. A fighters mindset can be just as important as their skillset. We can all probably take something from this book.
When we stop passing blame and start taking ownership of things happening to us, that’s when we learn the greatest lessons and receive the opportunity to become better and bigger.
Faced a loss?
Put lots of work in and it didn’t go your way?
Remember the saying “For what it will make of you.”
All the effort hasn’t gone to waste, it will come to fruition elsewhere, likely where you wouldn’t think.

Keep away from negative people.
They always have a problem for every solution.
Easy to forget these wise words of Einsteins sometimes.

If you have goals, ask Is what I’m doing today getting me closer to where I want to be tomorrow?
Am I making the adjustments needed?
If not, why not?

A great quote and one very pertinent to the role of a coach and possibly even more auspicious to that of friendship from French philosopher Michael DeMontaigne.

RIP to a legend of a man today.
I’m sure there’ll be many sad and heavy hearts at the loss of one of my true idols and what a pleasure it was that I got to meet him.
