Next, here are a few short thoughts this week.
Money
1.
“The word burnout was coined in the 1970s by Herbert Freudenberger, an American psychologist who studied workers in free health clinics. He found that the prime candidates for burnout were those who were “dedicated and committed,” trying to balance their need to give, to please others, and to work hard. He noticed that when there was added pressure from superiors, people often hit a breaking point.”

There are no dead ends, only speed bumps.
Health
1.
You can buy a new car. You can move to a new house.
But you only get ONE body.
Money spent on your health and fitness is not an expense; it’s an investment.
Pinch pennies elsewhere.
Relationships
1
Depending on when you see someone or the setting you meet them, you might be more acquainted with their victories than their vulnerabilities.

“No matter what you do, the tides of time will wash away your sandcastle, so there’s no point reaching for some foolhardy sense of immortality, when there’s real work to be done with real people right now.”
-John Green

How to Make More Money in Fitness
A workshop
Over just 3 hours, we’re revealing the business secrets that top coaches obsess over but burned-out trainers ignore.
–> Info and registration here
It’s not a lot you need to know.
The high-level topics we’re covering are:
• A repeatable system to get 4 new clients in 7 days that you can launch anytime you need more people.
• Money habits to keep (and grow) more of what you make.
• How to finally benefit from the UNTAPPED POTENTIAL of your network with a referral system.
I picked these 3 because they offer the perfect combination of easy implementation and high impact.
This is a live online event. If you cannot make it live, no problem. We wil send you the replay via both video and audio after it is over for your review.
