I’M NOT ‘ON HOLIDAY’, I’M JUST CURRENTLY IN EUROPE
Cordia took this photo of me yesterday when I was on a catch-up call with one of my favourite clients Nick Duggan.
He’s in Sydney
I’m in Corsica
And it doesn’t make a difference
Because when you really give a shit, time zones are irrelevant.

My execution was lacking
I didn’t understand the game
And so, I stayed stuck in the same place NOT fulfilling my life vision.

I always wanted to be free of a location
And to be able to build an amazing mission helping people transform their lives all around the world.
I wanted to pair up with an amazing woman that would be my equal
And I wanted to be a dad

But man, it was a god damn struggle working toward it
Some days, I’d ask myself, ‘𝘸𝘩𝘺 𝘢𝘮 𝘐 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘵 𝘴𝘰 𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘥? 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘮 𝘐 𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨?’
‘𝘈𝘮 𝘐 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘬𝘪𝘥𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘺𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧?’
It felt like I was just working for years for free, never getting ahead.
But, I still knew what I wanted, and kept getting up again.
The vision has been the thing to keep me going when it sucked.
A clear vision gives you direction
A clear vision gives you strength
A clear vision will one day come true if you just refuse to give up
When I look at this photo, I have so much gratitude
