KEY TAKEAWAYS
When I slipped last week and ripped my psoas my friend asked me if I felt OK. I couldn’t feel any pain, all that was going through my heart was: “Am I going to be able to swim?” I fell forward with all my weight onto a stone floor and I felt the pop. I’m only thankful to god, the universe, to my magnificent human form that it isn’t serious.
Today is the first day I’ve swum in a week. There were signs that if I pushed it it would begin to niggle. But, I now know that with some physio in the next week, with some reintegration exercises, some soft tissue muscle work I’m going to be OK and back on track.
Everyone’s saying you don’t have to do it, you can wait ‘til next year. What their mind says is at the first opportunity where discomfort arises, run, it’s time to quit. What happens in my mind is when the going gets tough, the tough get going.
BEST MOMENTS
‘The swim is about impact, and the way I see it is if I don’t do the swim there will be no impact.’
‘It’s a recurring pattern: I get into the flow of doing things, I’m doing 1-3 hours, and just as I’m seeking to push my endurance something happens.’
‘I’m not going to quit now, I’m not going to quit on that day, I am going to successfully complete my challenge and return healthily.’
ABOUT THE HOST
Gavin Scott is a born entrepreneur with a passion for start up and scale up. He has over 20 years real estate experience in investment and development.
Gavin says: Over the years I have discovered that mindset is everything. Now, that might sound obvious, but it is! You see the number of awoken minds are very few in reality. Whilst acknowledging mindset is key it is absolutely different from utilising, influencing, impacting and effecting great change, for yourself, your loved ones, friends, colleagues and the wider public.
Why?
Like most of us I have had many ups and downs. I want to share the lessons learnt and promote a better environment for all, internally and externally!
How?
Through sharing my own experiences and hosting some fabulous individuals including some big household names to discuss key topics around mindset and the success formulas I hope the listener will become inspired to create space for change for betterment in their lives. I aim to inspire change by encouragement, not by force. I intend to inspire by education, not by regulation.
