This week, Steven talks to British professional boxer, Jamie Cox, who held the Commonwealth light-middleweight title from 2011 to 2012. As an amateur, he won a gold medal at the 2006 Commonwealth Games.
Steven talks to Jamie about the will to win - the driving motivations that have taken him to the top in the sporting world - and how these same forces can be used in every part of life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Sometimes the fact that we are unconventional is a strength. We can surprise people with our will to win and dedication. Using this will to win, we can overcome other perceived weaknesses.
If you don't set effective goals, then you can lose the focus you need to get there. Focus drives us forward when things get tough.
There's no such thing as a shortcut to success. You have to be prepared to put in the time and the work to get to where you want to be. Treat it like a marathon, not a sprint.
Success requires sacrifice. You have to give up so much in order to reach the top, so make sure the things you miss out on are worth the things you gain.
BEST MOMENTS
'Focus on the goal and the money comes with that'
'I was always dedicated and worked very hard'
'It's more of a marathon than a sprint'
'This is what you need to do, this is what you need to think, and this is what you have to sacrifice'

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.
