The Promise of a New You

Around about this time of year, people often take a closer look at themselves than they would normally. The world has spun round one more time, your waistline’s a few plum-puddings bigger than the norm; the bank balance is a bit slimmer after the Christmas madness…

This is the time that people start to make resolutions: “I’m going to get fit”, “I’m finding a better job this year”, “This is the year I buy a flat/car/plasma TV…” et cetera.

But New-Year resolutions invariably grind to a halt before January is even through; the waistline just gets bigger, the overdraft does likewise, the expensive membership to the gym club never gets used, and self-esteem starts to droop sadly towards the floor.

The problem is – and I want you to lean closer so that you won’t miss this – the problem is, people don’t have a proper plan.
You see you couldn’t even make your way to the local shop if you just walked out the house and ambled indiscriminately wherever the angles of the pathway and the pull of gravity moved you.

You have to know exactly where you want to go!
This is the secret: You got to have a plan.
Forgive the grammar there - that was just for dramatic effect.

I’m going to cut to the quick now, coz we have short attention spans these days, and there’s a pack of really interesting blogs out there just waiting to be glanced at meaninglessly.

I want to give you some free coaching.

Why would I want to give you something for free? It’s because most life-coaches (at least the ones I know) are genuinely interested in people and want folks to be the best they can be.

I know a heap of stuff, and if you come on the journey with me, I’ll pass on to you as much as I can.

Imagine this:

It’s five years from now and the start of the day. You are looking at yourself in the mirror, and enjoying seeing your body - which is at your ideal weight and level of fitness.
You’ve already been awake for a while (you get up an hour earlier now than you did five years ago), done a short work-out and eaten a healthy breakfast. You’ve planned your day, and given yourself some positive affirmations.
Work is a joy these days – you are more productive than you have ever been, get along better with the team, and the results speak for themselves: your pay increase has bought you the car you always wanted, and the mortgage repayments don’t cripple you the way they used to.
After work you go for dinner with your partner to your favourite restaurant, where the manager sends you a complimentary bottle of wine just for being a regular (and fun) customer, then you take in a show before heading home.
It’s been a great day, and before bed, you check how your secondary business online is doing. The good news is that it’s been the best week business wise for you in the last three months. This week alone will pay for your diving holiday in the Bahamas.
Before turning in for the night you phone an old friend you’ve been meaning to catch up with. You shoot the breeze for a while, enjoy a laugh about old times, and agree to meet up for lunch next week. Your friend has a business idea you might want to get involved with - you phoned at a lucky time. Actually all your luck seems to be good these days.
As you drift off to sleep now, you can’t believe the changes that have taken place in the last five years… and what plans you have for the next five!

If you want more, much more out of life, then come on a journey with me.
I’ll show you how to set powerful goals that will take you where you want to go career-wise. I’ll help you foster stronger and more loving relationships. We’ll learn how to make more money and how to make that money work for you.
You’ll develop unshakeable confidence, towering self-esteem and be fitter, healthier and smarter than you have ever been before.
I’ll teach you techniques to get what you want from other people – and how to learn new skills quicker and better.
I’ll help you develop those new skills, find a life-purpose, and show you how you can get more out of life by giving more in life.

I’ll help you every step of the way. I’m a good teacher, but you have got to be a good student.
Sure you might have off days - times when you slip back into old habits – you’re human after all. But if you dream big, plan well and take the right actions, I promise you, you are going to see tremendous results right from the start.

Come and visit me tomorrow and we’ll make that start.

Allan Dunn


Taking you beyond your best!
