Is your goal personal enough?
We are often reminded that we should have personal goals to aim for, things to keep us motivated (still hate that word) and moving forward towards that thing. It is very true that we do work better when we have something to work towards. Think about the last time you had a big occasion, or […]

Start with great intentions
You might have noticed I didnt kick off January 1st with the whole “New year, new you” nonsense. As much as my profession plays on this old adage, I personally do not buy it. There is absolutley nothing magical about the turning of a calendar page or chiming of a clock that will suddenly make […]

No time like the present!
Whoa. So I guess we really didn’t see that coming did we? Real life feels like the unexpected plot twist in a crazy sci-fi end of the world movie…… (side note, who gets to play you in the on screen version? Answers in the comments!) Stuck/safe in our homes,depending on your perspective, and forced to […]

Who are you waiting for?
The question most asked when you thinking about starting something new is “What are you waiting for?” I know that there are thousands of right answers ( acceptable excuses if we are going to call a spade a spade) and they can justify putting off the smallest undertaking by another 10 minutes or a day, […]

Starting fitness from the inside
When you hear the word “Fitness” what do you think of? Hot sweaty, smelly rooms, filled with weights, scary looking machines of some kind of torture, and a drill sergeant like instructor shouting to go harder? Or maybe the overly enthusiastic lady from the Specsavers add? For too many people that word harbours a negative […]
