Boxing Journalist, Tris Dixon: In His Own Words

Tris Dixon is the former editor of Boxing News and has covered the sport for nearly two decades. He was the ghostwriter for Ricky Hatton's recent bestselling autobiography, War and Peace, and is a regular pundit on Sky Sports' boxing shows. Tris joins Steven on this episode to talk about his life so far and how he turned his passion for the sport of boxing into the words that have since inspired so many to see it in a new way. KEY TAKEAWAYS In the formative years of life, many are striving to prove themselves in physical ways. This can lead to the creation of people who attack, and people built to defend. It's sometimes best not to burn ourselves out in pursuit of physical perfection. Our bodies require rest between sessions, and reflection upon what we have achieved. It's the same with sparring. The perception of boxing is often one of violence, but it also a discipline that teaches control, self-care, fitness and self-development. Finding contentment and peace is the way to true happiness. Chasing an idea of happiness is ultimately unattainable. BEST MOMENTS 'There are parallels between business and boxing' 'If you're prepared to put yourself out there and box, you can confront a lot more in life' 'It's not about hurting each other. It's about learning' 'If you can just be, then that is the key' VALUABLE RESOURCES The Steven Sulley Study       Tris Dixon Twitter - https://twitter.com/TrisDixon Tris Dixon Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/trisdixon/?hl=en  ABOUT THE HOST The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should have multiple focuses to be a well-rounded individual. Success shouldn't be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships. As a person who has made a success in life and also made huge cock-ups I feel I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit. My 'Study' has taken resources from reading and education plus being around, my perception, of successful people and I, know a lot of successful people from all walks of life. My 'Study' coming from my experiences in business, investing, sales (my core background), training, boxing and education has enabled me to become well rounded and successful and I will help you in these key areas too.
