I spent the better part of 2020 participating in an intensive Coach Training program that focused on core wisdom (from ancient wisdom and modern science) and life’s fundamentals. As part of the program, we all had to participate in an obstacle course race. The obstacles in these races symbolize our commitment to what we’ve learned: to finding a way over, under, around or through any challenge we face in life.
I thought I was reasonably fit for a person my age; participating in an obstacle course race showed me that I’ve still got a long way to go!! By the end of the course, I had continued to tweak what I eat, I trained differently at the gym, lost a few kgs (burpees will do that!!), and got a whole lot fitter and stronger! And prompted by my active participation in this course, I’ve also improved my sleep, do a daily journal, and now consistently meditate in the mornings!
I’ve distilled the best of what I extracted (best for me) from my ten months of training into my Top 10 Big Ideas. Here’s the overview of my Top 10 Big Ideas (+ 1 bonus idea). I like to share with my clients what I learn (from research papers, books, and professional training courses) and this video is no different – you’re getting the best of what I learned over the course of 2020. Note: I did this video as part of the final ‘assessment’ for the course. It was never intended for ‘publication’ however, I figure it’s a bit of fun – so enjoy this single-take video in all its raw glory!!
