When he came down to London, he stayed at a hotel that may have been slightly above his remit as to where he was there.
But it wasn't above the remit of an international CEO.
Lo and behold, I actually now live in Dubai.
He came to meet me here the other day.
super proud of him as he is now an international ceo so i think looking at the traits of that individual but again the environment order is fundamental because otherwise you're playing the game in hard mode if your environment is not conducive to growth and success and you're getting pulled left right and center by all of this distraction irrespective of how disciplined one individual is
you're playing the game on hard mode you're quite literally going upstream so firstly for me it starts with yes knowing the traits of the individual that you wish to become yes getting granular and specific with your goals and the outcome of where you're going but then also auditing what you've got going on right now I used to believe it or not I used to hate running and that's a very strong word and it started my shift started by banishing the words of me saying that I said I've got to stop saying I coach people is what am I doing you know I'm shaping myself around an identity of someone who hates running and
So I stopped saying that.
That was step one.
Step two, this is when I lived in the UK and you're completely right.
The weather in the UK is very gray, very miserable.
And I knew that I was not going to start running at 6 a.m.
in the morning in whatever rain.
And that was not going to set myself up for success.
What was going to set me up for success, however, was my friend Jordan used to pick me up, removed all friction.
We drove to Richmond Park, beautiful park, great location.
If anyone's been there, like lots of health conscious individuals, either running or cycling.
So great environment.
We had a powerful conversation when we ran.
He's in finance.
He's got growth mindset as well.
