You DON’T have to be great to get started
…although you DO have to get started to be great! The New Year hasn’t started quite as we’d planned (and boy have we planned), because while David’s COVID-19 test returned negative yesterday, he does have a rather bizarre viral infection which has left him totally wiped out and so it seems, I shall march boldly […]
Being in two minds is a good thing!
As you begin the wind down this week, perhaps you’d like to reflect on this mad crazy year & begin to think about the New Year ahead – from TWO perspectives… Because being in TWO minds, especially when it comes to making plans for a bigger, better, brighter future is a REALLY good thing! I’m […]
Take a leaf out of Southgate’s book
I mean, literally – there is much we can learn from Gareth Southgate’s just-released autobiography Anything is Possible: Be Brave, Be Kind & Follow Your Dreams and we’d do well to pay attention to the England Football Team Manager this week, because he has some important lessons to share. As the footballing legend himself said: […]
Not EVERYTHING is cancelled!
They say HOPE is everything to those who have nothing – and it seems this may well be true for some, especially at this present time with all that’s happening in the world. And I’m not just talking about this crazy pandemic or the madness that two full-blown lockdowns have caused this year☹. There are […]
Who do you think you are?
The witty Irish playwright Oscar Wilde was a genius – he had a phenomenal ability to incorporate aspects of both fantasy and realism into his works. Through thoughtful imagery and realistic dialect, he successfully merged two contradicting genres into a fascinatingly morbid tale. He was said to have authored many profound quotes in his lifetime, […]
KIND people live LONGER!
World Kindness Day was celebrated last Friday 13th November, as it is each year and although it is NOT currently a day affiliated with any religion or political movement, over 28 nations participate in this unofficial holiday and here at Team FIT, we believe it should be an EVERYDAY occurrence! KINDNESS is a human condition […]
Are you a Rising Resilient?
It seems RESILIENCE is the buzzword right now. We need shedloads of it, in both business AND life as we continue to navigate our way through this craaazy pandemic. I talked a lot about RESILIENCE in last week’s FIT Matters, when I shared the inspiring story of Trunki Founder Rob Law, who endured an enormous […]
Lessons from Pooh and Piglet!
I’m a big fan of T. Harv Eker, author of Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, best known for his theories on wealth and motivation, having helped over 2 million people achieve financial freedom and stellar success through his world-renowned, inspirational teachings. Last week’s blog from his son, Jesse, talked about the Habits of Happiness and […]
Are you as resilient as Rob’s Trunki?
I’m entering my 2nd week in quarantine, having spent 10 glorious days at my sister’s place in Spain, lapping up the sun’s rays; enjoying some scrummy tapas; drinking sangria and wandering along the beautiful beaches of Caceres, Sotogrande and Marbella… A-M-A-Z–I-N-G! I had a shed-load of R&R while I was there and David and I […]
Klopp would NEVER put his fans before his players – and neither should YOU!
Putting your customers’ needs before your employees needs is BONKERS, right? I mean, a football manager would NEVER put his fans’ physical or emotional wellbeing ahead of their players, would they? Any half decent football manager knows that their player’s needs and requirements have to take priority, if their players are going to fulfil the […]
