In this episode, Jeannette talks to Billy Schwer, the Former British, Commonwealth, European, and World Boxing champion. He explains how he reached the top and what he learned along the way. Lessons that he is now sharing with others through his motivational speaking and his new book Man Up – The World Champion Way. They also discuss his personal performance coaching and his 12-week coaching program.
Billy speaks about the difficulties of his boxing journey. As well as how he became a success in business and an author despite ADHD and dyslexia. They talk about how the urge to win, led to him being unfeeling, selfish, and inconsiderate. Something that he has since been able to change and is now helping others to do too.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
You´ve got to be powerful in the face of adversity. That means letting go of things that go wrong and moving on.
Having a strong team around will help you to succeed. Surround yourself with the right people.
Life-changing decisions are hard to make. Billy explains why he decided to stop boxing and the struggle he had reinventing himself.
Take courses that suit your learning style. For Billy was conversational rather than written content.
If something does not feel right, work to change it.
Feel good about the journey, not just about hitting the goal. Enjoy the ride.
Consistency is what gets the results.
If you keep yo-yo-ing, your why is not strong enough.
When you find inspiration, you will automatically be motivated.
Look after yourself. If you don´t you can´t look after anyone else.
Keep your hands up. Protect yourself at all times, be aware of what you are reading, listening to, and who you are associating with.
You are accountable for your own life and how you respond. You are not a victim.
