It isn't easy in a world we live in when you have so many moving parts that influence us to try and gain control over things we can't, which leads to taking focus off controlling what we can – ourselves. Investing in yourself mentally and physically is the best way to influence anything else outside of your life that you care about, and you initiate this by asking quality questions of yourself on what you can do to change and following it up with action.

Ep.60 Tony Noyes joined RDM at the beginning of 2020 as a man who had limiting beliefs and lacklustre standards that were reflected in his body and outlook on life. This is also a man who could dominate in other areas, make no mistake, limiting beliefs come for all of us. Yes he's lost weight yes he's winning golf tournaments and yes he's turned around and enhanced every area of his life, but that's because of who he is now and the self-belief he has. Enjoy a very powerful episode that will help you make breakthroughs in your own life.

Ep.59 If you can bench press 80kg but we load 100kg and I help you for a small percentage of the lift do you grow? Life does not need to be lived alone, yes we all get burned and make fuckups and life is messy, but this goes for all of us and it's what we continue to do moving forward that counts. One of the greatest ways to do that is through spotting those around you in a line of seeing the value that brings to then spot yourself in leadership and actions to invest in other energy sources and environments to see what's possible in your own life. Kinda like paying it forward, but on yourself first and also others around you at the same time. Nothing lifts you up more than helping others but it must be done in an environment you are connected to that allows you to lift yourself as well.
