Get out of your comfort zone!
16.01.2012
Yesterday I decided to jump and parachute out of a perfect good plane... Why? Because I can and to get out of my comfort zone...Too often we are scared. Scared of what we might not be able to do. Scared of what people might think if we tried. We let our fear get in the way of our hopes and dreams. We say no when we want to say yes. We sit quietly when want to scream. There's really no time to be afraid. So stop. Try something you've never tried before. Risk it you have nothing to lose and everything, everything, everything to gain. Get physically and mentally ready for a massively successful

Will this hold you back?
09.01.2012
Will this hold you back?After coaching athletes for more than a decade, the most common psychological flaw that pervades the athletes mind, is the fear of failure....What if I don’t succeed? What if I fail? This fear paralyses the mind, body and spirit and actually holds you back.As an athlete you will experience ups and downs, and plenty of bumps along the way...What we do is not predictable...If you want to tread a conservative, safe path where the routine of your life is consistent, where the emotional highs and lows feel much the same - then, don't do much. Don't take chances,

You're Not Good Enough!
19.12.2011
I love hearing about athletes that have overcome adversity, been overlooked for selection numerous times, or told they're not good enough and simply won't make it. With the AFL Rookie draft last week there some surprise selections such as 29 year old Geelong player Orren Stephensen. All your life they will say you're not good enough or strong enough or talented enough; they will say you're the wrong height or the wrong weight or the wrong type to play this or be this or achieve this. THEY WILL TELL YOU NO, a thousand times no, until all the no's become meaningless. All your life they will tell

What would everyone else do?

A young man that displays maturity and leadership beyond his years, a man that bleeds passion and intensity. A young man that brings it to every single session and has done so for the last 3 years. He has never made an excuse or missed a scheduled session in that time. Hence, I feel he is well versed to deliver this article.
