“There are only two ways to influence human behavior: you can manipulate it or you can inspire it." - Simon Sinek
In this short episode, I reflect on the pivotal moments in my life that have shaped my life's journey.
These thoughts were brought on by the current book that I'm reading: Start with why, by Simon Sinek.

I discuss the reason's why I made big, life-changing decisions throughout the course of my life, along with why I coach the way that I do, and the reason why I started this podcast.
I also speak about one of the proudest moments of my life...and that was when the current UFC bantamweight champion, Petr Yan, had his hand raised after defeating a legend in the MMA world, in Jose Aldo.
Live a life of purpose...start with why!

"I shouldn’t be in the position I am right now."
The odds were stacked against me:
● Poor family on welfare, eldest of 6 kids, parents didn’t work, abusive step-dad, no electricity or running water for a 6 years period of my life
● Caught up with the wrong crowd, stealing, drugs, skipping school
● At 14 years old, I sat on a bus for 3 days with $50 in my pocket, to travel to the next State over West, to begin a new life in the workforce - 2000
14 - 20: I grew up and learned how to become a man through work and rugby
20 - 26: I lived, trained and fought as a professional soldier, at a high level
26 - 32: I became a personal trainer, after failing in my pursuit to become a firefighter
32 - 38: I worked with, and won world titles with some of the best athletes on the planet, as their strength and conditioning coach
38+: The next evolution begins
