By the time I turned 26, I hadn't had a date in 7 years.  Let me be clear on what this means.  That's not going without a date but picking up girls in nightclubs. No, I literally hadn't had any physical contact with a girl for 7 long years. How do you imagine this made me feel as a young man, supposedly in the prime of his life? One word suffices. DESPERATE. I was desperate on every level...

When I first set out on a quest to live my dreams, 22 years ago, I thought success in this endeavour was about inspiration. I’d read about Sylvester Stallone writing the first draft of his Rocky script in three days and assumed that, if I was equally inspired, I’d produce a similar result. Unfortunately, nothing could have been further from the truth.   From Failure To Success My dream was...

Movies have saved my life! Or, perhaps it would be accurate to say that movies have brought me back to life. When I was at my lowest, feeling disillusioned with the world I was living in and seeing no prospects for living the exciting, meaningful life I wanted to live, I went to the cinema or popped some of the movies below in the DVD player, sat back and felt all my motivation and inspiratio...

Two weeks ago, I went on vacation to Italy.  The first part of the holiday was a trip to Florence and, while there, I visited the church of Santa Croce (see picture below).   This Church houses the tombs of some of Italy's greatest artists and thinkers - Galileo, Michelangelo, Machiavelli, Dante (the picture at the top of this blog post is of Galileo's tomb).

A couple of weeks ago, I finished reading Arnold Schwarzenegger's new book Be Useful: 7 Tools For Life.  What I'm about to write is by no means a parody of that work. In fact, I thought the book was good and Arnold Schwarzenegger has consistently been one of my greatest inspirations. (You can read my appraisal of his unique mindset by clicking here).  However, after reading his book, I had an...

Since the age of 11, I've felt different.  When I went to secondary school, I found it impossible to fit in.  This feeling intensified as I became a teenager.  Some of my classmates were smoking, drinking and doing drugs. I wasn't even curious about trying. However, according to the unwritten rules of being a teenager, the kids who did partake in these activities were "cool", the top of the...

(By Sarah Ariela) This story is painful to recount… because this is a story about being dependent on a wheelchair. Fortunately, I stepped out of the wheelchair using three tools and walked away with a key for transformation. For over 15 years, I was in and out of different types of wheelchairs because of Dysautonomia. Dys- wha?! In layperson’s terms, my blood pressure plummeted whenever I sto...

Let me tell you a quick story. Back in 2002, I had a dream of becoming a published author. I wanted to write a self-help book. I’ve always been fascinated by the idea of personal transformation and thought it would be amazing if I could inspire other people to change their lives. At the time, though, I was a clueless university graduate who’d just returned home to his parents’ house. I didn’...
