Embracing The New World By Finding Your Place In It - with Aaron Chalmers

Aaron Chalmers is an English retired mixed martial artist and reality television personality who has appeared in the reality shows Geordie Shore and Ex on the Beach. Aaron meets Steven to talk about the business side of fighting, social media and the pros and cons of the new technologically based world, his philosophy around money and success, and his work ethic when it comes to professional sport. KEY TAKEAWAYS Professional fighting is a business, and should always be kept as such. When those with bigger followings set up fights, they have the right to enter matches where those audiences are matched. Social media is a tool that the world uses unilaterally to gain an audience and to make money. This can lead to stunning success, but it can also breed jealousy and resentment from others. The key to embracing money is not to think of it as the end result. More money does not necessarily bring happiness, but the accumulation of money does allow us the freedom to be able to follow the paths we find interesting and appealing. Professional sport and training should be treated like a job, because that's what it is. Work is not something we should ever treat as a hobby. We have a small window of time in the professional world. We should dedicate ourselves completely to it. BEST MOMENTS 'It's about money at the end of the day' 'The world revolves around your profile' 'Money does make the world go round' 'Social media is good if you use it correctly' VALUABLE RESOURCES The Steven Sulley Study        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.
