“THINK DIFFERENTLY” to achieve the unthinkable results that will inspire others to do the same.. Firstly, I applaud anyone who endeavours to constantly and consistently grow themselves/business/relationships.. However, I’ve been watching a lot of “social trends” being copied lately And, that’s cool.. It means that someone’s gone out of their way to think differently! In turn challenging the social norm, achieving a great result.. And inspiring others to follow suit.. However, these little increments will only result in 1-2%’ers.. Which is cool.. But, if you’re expecting earth shattering result.. It may not be the growth you’re searching for.. Expectation has the ability to be a bitch.. I put some feelers out there recently asking people what they thought some of my top qualities were! And a staggering amount (to me) Returned with the consistent flow of “ability to think differently in turn inspiring others to make change & follow suit” Honestly? I love that... What better compliment than to be recognised for breaking the social norm and inspiring impact driven solutions across so many different spaces.. I urge anyone out there to rethink their next move.. If it’s within your scope & plan to do something big.. Before you potentially find yourself getting left in the dust of someone else.. Go read “Blue Ocean Strategy” It may just urge you to think differently and skyrocket your results.. Oh.. And have a fucking sensational Friday

School Of Struggle fam, I’ve had a lot of people ask what’s keeping me on course at the moment and where I’ve been.. A little quiet, I know. I chat about how you stay on course even in hard times and how to capitalise on every day with a bit of a story of what’s been going on that will help everyone stay on top of their own personal development!

If you’re searching for raw motivational podcast that absolutely anyone can benefit from then you have most definitely tuned in to the right channel! Today, Chris jumped on the phone with good friend Alex “The Great” Volkanovski, UFC’s Real Life Superhero, in the lead up to his fight this weekend at UFC 221 in Perth, Australia. After dropping 30kg and deciding to make the change from successful rugby player Alexander “The Hulk” Volkanovski quickly grew (or should I say “shrunk”) into the next version of himself - “the Great”. From football to MMA and everything in between, Alex has covered it all in this hour long podcast taking the time to cover what it means to him to be a fighter and how life has changed since the transition, where his competitive nature and motivation spawn from, misconceptions of a UFC fighter, how to see yourself as a business and his love for Hogwarts and all things food. Alex is focused, prepared and ready to take on Jeremy Kennedy this weekend and I’m so excited to be there to see it all unravel.
