Wednesday Words of Wisdom #136
Give-a-shitability- Adjective; Descriptive word depicting one who gives a shit. A rare being in any time but especially nowadays.
I flew to Edinburgh last Friday to attend a seminar with a couple of the best minds in the Health and Fitness Business.
I had an absolute ball and set off for home again on Sunday evening with my mind buzzing and my faith in the industry fully restored.
There’s something about the power of a collective energy that you can tap into and use to spur you on in your own endeavours.
As I sat there in that lecture hall and listened to these brilliant speakers impart their wisdom to me and my fellow professionals, I couldn’t help but think about my Heroes back at home, you guys.
Day in, day out, you guys trust us to guide you through your journey with exercise and diet. You come to us for a helping hand and we do our best by you. Over time, relationships are formed and you become more than just clients to us. Our Heroes are an extension of our family.
When you win, we celebrate with you.
When you fall, we help you back on to your feet.
When you are challenged, we are likely the ones that put it there but we’re also the ones who will help you figure it out.
It is a relationship that we as Trainers cherish and consider ourselves privileged to be entrusted with.
We think you are perfect as you are.
If there’s something we can help you work on to make you a bit happier with yourself then we will but we will always remind you that you are perfect right here and right now.
There is something to be said for the power of community. I could feel it over the weekend in that seminar and I feel it when I am in the company of my Heroes.
Time and time again you guys surprise me with your passion, determination and heart.
I have been fortunate enough to meet some truly wonderful people through Hollywood Fitness and I am grateful to call many of you my friends.
The seminar at the weekend has given me a much needed battery charge.
It has reminded me that as a Trainer, I am here to serve those who need me most.
The folks that don’t think gym’s are for them, know this; I f*#king hate gyms.
Hollywood Fitness is NOT a gym, Hollywood Fitness is an ideal.
Hollywood Fitness is a playground for the ‘Other guys’ to groove their gears and learn new and cool stuff, all the while getting a little sexier. ;-)
We are here for you, heck, we are you.
We think you are truly awesome just the way we are and if we can help you to unleash even just one more percent of awesomeness then we consider it a pleasure to work with you.
If I learned one thing over the weekend, it is this; You do you, you are perfect and if you believe that then nothing else really matters, does it?
