Ever feel like you're backstroking with the multitudes in a sea of mediocrity?

Ever feel like you're meant to be doing something a bit bigger, more stimulating, more noble, more significant, more challenging, more creative, more fun or more financially rewarding!!?

Does your life wreak of Blaaah?
Do you feel like you're the Captain of the SS Directionless?

Welcome to the Average club.

That's where most people live but don't wanna be.
The problem is, we do everything we can to stay a member.

About seventeen years ago I had an idea.

Apparently it was a stupid idea and I would never be able to pull it off.

Too young, too innexperienced, no business skills, no management experience, no administrative skills and no idea how to create, or grow, a business.

What would a dumb twenty four year-old bodybuilder know?

Besides, there was no market or demand for my idea in Australia.

Fortunately for me, my stupid idea has helped me become everything I wasn't, travel the world, work in television and radio, write books, write for magazines, lecture to thousands, help countless people reach their own dreams, have mountains of fun, work in a great environment with great people evey day and also make a few bucks.

I'm kinda glad I didn't listen to all those older, wiser 'advisors'.

Of course the idea was to set up Australia's first commercial Personal Training studio and fortunately for me, it proved to be not so dumb. It worked, not because I'm clever or some business guru, but because:

1. There WAS a market for what I was selling
2. I was prepared to do whatever it took
3. I was prepared to learn and look silly along the way
4. I hated working for other people!
5. I dealt with my fears (of failure etc.) and did what I needed to do.
6. I learnt to deal with discomfort on a daily basis
7. I wanted it enough

At some stage, every successful business, project, organisation or endeavour was simply an idea, a thought, a concept to be developed.

More than likely that same idea was had by many people before one person decided to get uncomfortable, take a risk, get off their butt, get busy and seriously chase their dream.

To actually turn the idea into a reality.

Too many of us spend our life doing nothing with our great ideas, and hoping that success and happiness might magically 'happen' to us.

You've got ideas, you've got potential, you've got what it takes.

You want more.

Stop waiting for the 'right' time... it may never arrive.

Besides, the Average club sucks.
