Back In It

“Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.” — Arthur Ashe

We were away. Things accumulated. The undone did not get done.

Returning feels overwhelming. Time tight. Patience thin.

We have returned. Things are getting done.

This is the opportunity to recalibrate time, energy, and order.

We will get back in the groove. A better one.

Mental fitness is expect → notice → choose → recalibrate.

Spring Snow

“External things are not the problem. It’s your assessment of them. Which you can erase right now.” — Marcus Aurelius

Spring is here. Yet it snows.

Snow is not the problem.

Our perception is.

The snow has not changed.
What is. Is.

Choose to see how our perceptions are not reality.
If they do not help our happiness, performance, or relationships, use mental fitness to change them.

Different ideas create friction. Learn to find the useful sliver inside someone else’s idea and use it to upgrade your process and build better systems.

Too many choices pull our attention in every direction. Train freedom by deciding what is important, limiting distractions, and practicing the discipline to choose.

Don’t Let Them Out - Stop Saboteurs Before They Do Damage

“No man is free who is not master of himself.” — Epictetus

We feel the urge.
The push.

Reacting.
Responding.

Drifting on autopilot.

Circumstances frustrate.
People irritate.

When life happens, stress happens.

Stress brings out our saboteurs.

Our saboteurs… sabotage.
Relationships and performance.
If we let them out.

Thoughts cannot be controlled.
Reactions can.

We choose
Whether we let them out.

Pause.
Be curious.
Ask what’s true.

If they are not needed
Do not let them out.

Beyond excited and proud to announce Being Human Mental Fitness is partnering with SEND Sports Club CIC.

SEND Sports Club, founded by Paul Dunphy, focuses on creating sports environments where families and communities can grow through sport.

SEND programs are designed to support individuals with special educational needs by building confidence, teamwork, and life skills through inclusive sport.

SEND is building players.
Developing individuals.
Creating communities.

Sport develops much more than skill.
Through sport, SEND develops life skills for the individual and community through:
Relationships
Confidence
Resilience
Leadership.

These skills do not happen on their own.
They are developed through intention, structure, and practice.

My work training Mental Fitness contributes to the SEND ecosystem by bringing the practice of Self-Mastery.
Supporting players
Parents
Coaches
Organizations
Leaders.

Being Human Mental Fitness will help those involved recalibrate the investment of attention, time, and energy to where they produce the greatest return.

Looking forward to the work ahead and what we build together.

The Controller In Action - Control The Controller Before Acting

“Let us set our minds on what is good and just, and govern ourselves before attempting to govern others.” — Musonius Rufus

The Controller takes action
It needs it.

It leaves us frustrated
For having to do everything.

It leaves others
Feeling not good enough.

The Controller
Is great at taking action
And terrible at discerning
What actions should be taken.

Control The Controller

Navigating With The Controller - When Control Ignores What Matters

“The first step toward knowledge is to know that we are ignorant.” — Musonius Rufus

The Controller wants to make the decisions.

It overlooks what is important
For the need to control.

It forgets to listen
To what is important
For others.

Projects
Relationships
Focus
Performance
All suffer.

Bring others in.
Take time.
Consider the long view.

CHEAT CODE: NOTICE THE CONTROLLER → PAUSE → INVITE INPUT → NAVIGATE THE LONG VIEW

Exploring With The Controller - Why Control Limits Leadership and Growth

“Wisdom begins in wonder.” — Socrates

The Controller moves fast.
Decides quickly.
Acts immediately.

But it skips curiosity.
Ignores other maps.
Assumes it already knows best.

In the end the Controller creates dependency and isolation.

Control has a place.
But only in a small window.

Explore before acting.
