I currently live in Telford, Shropshire with my wife, Lee - and took the big decision to take control of my own destiny back in 2007, when I took the plunge and joined the Property Mastermind Programme. At that time, I was a director of a national Courier company, often working 80+ hours per week, permanently stressed and traveling 50,000 miles per annum on the UK's already overcrowded road networks. I was getting little satisfaction from my job, and felt that I was not moving forward at all - I was stuck! I had a good salary, nice car and all the outward trappings of success, but inside I just knew there had to be more...have YOU ever felt that way I wonder? I had always been interested in Property, and thought I knew a bit.... until I joined the programme that was. But do you want to know the really good thing about this was to find that I was in a group with so many like-minded people, all with the same ambitions, the same fears and sometimes even the same darned fool questions! It is this support network by the way that will prove your biggest ally! Sure, the learning curve is immense, the speakers...inspirational and the Power Team, knowledgeable. But you know, for me, the biggest learning’s came from the success and challenges from my fellow Mastermind friends and associates! Shortly after joining Mastermind, three months in to be exact...I realised that I was not making the progress that I had wanted - I was forever working and allowed myself every excuse not to be moving forward with volition! Then one day I realised that the only way my life would change was if I were to change it myself...not Simon (although he was giving it a good go), not my wife ONLY me! So I decided to take massive action, and subscribed to a two year personal development programme that would see me qualify as a Master Life Coach, and give up my job only eight short weeks later! Since then, I have been living at cause and not effect, and have seen huge changes in both myself and my relationships with the people dear to me. For relaxation, I enjoy touring Europe on my motorcycle with my wife, reading motivational books and photography, and love working with people. My main strategy is Property Options, which gives me the opportunity to combine my love of helping people with that of my other passion for property, something I take great enjoyment from.
