Most people remember the inspirational movie Rudy.  It’s a feel good movie, where the underdog takes the path of most resistance and wins.  What if we didn’t take this path?  What if we focused on our TALENTS instead of our shortcomings? According to the book Strengths Finder 2.0 we would be 6x’s more engaged in our work and 3x’s more likely to say we are happier!  Tune in today where we discuss how we can invest in our talents (personality) to really build and develop skills that allow us to craft a truly exceptional life that is in flow with who we really are.  When we start being authentic to ourselves we can achieve so much more than doing what everyone else is doing. “Subscribe and rate us on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/inside-the-champions-mind/id585020176?mt=2 Listen to us on The Wellness Couch: http://thewellnesscouch.com///category/itcm Watch us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC269QPPIi69wH6Shyp2cW4w Website: www.insidethechampionsmind.com Follow Laurence Tham on: FB: laurence.tham Instagram: laurencetham Email: [email protected] Website: www.laurencetham.com” Are you ready to take your Health & Nutrition education to the next level?

We recently had the privilege of interviewing J.J. Virgin and something she said really stuck with me, “little hinges swing big doors”. What does this mean? It means that everything in life starts with the little things, the baby steps. So often we get stuck on the “How”, we let fear stop us and when things become tough we think that it’s not meant to be. In order to grow and re-invent ourselves we need to know our vision, surround ourselves with the “right” mentors and not be afraid to experiment. The best things in life are often on the other side of the fear and terror that holds us back. What’s holding you back today? “Subscribe and rate us on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/inside-the-champions-mind/id585020176?mt=2 Listen to us on The Wellness Couch: http://thewellnesscouch.com///category/itcm Watch us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC269QPPIi69wH6Shyp2cW4w Website: www.insidethechampionsmind.com Follow Laurence Tham on: FB: laurence.tham Instagram: laurencetham Email: [email protected] Website: www.laurencetham.com” Are you ready to take your Health & Nutrition education to the next level?

We spin off a few topics on this episode of ITCM. The first tangent is around social media etiquette – Do you send people FB messages instead of emails so you can see if they have read them? How do you respond if they haven’t read them?! How do you use / not use your phone whilst you are with people in social situations Whose calls do you screen or accept? What is rude anti-social behaviour and what is not? We also talk about what it takes to cultivate patience in life, especially when circumstances and scenarios feel like they are conspiring against us.

For the first time on ITCM, the guys get stuck in to health – predominantly the mindset around decisions around food and exercise. However, in true ITCM fashion, the principles discussed go far beyond health; they transcend all other areas of life – from relationships, career choice, growth and more.
