I wish I'd known other people were finding things tough when I was in my 20s. I thought I was the weird, weak one. The more we talk, the more we can show others they aren't the odd one out. In fact, they're part of the gang and we're all here waiting to put an arm around them

Next time you're presented with an opportunity, regardless of how big and shiny it is, ask yourself this question: For what? If the answer isn't moving you towards a project that makes your heart sing. Then try politely declining and get back to what matters. Busy isn’t good.

If you want to start stepping into change you have to have faith in what is beyond your immediate experience. If it's meaningful enough then just start, even if it's messy. Trust that you may not know what follows that first step, but that you'll work it out along the way.

Your purpose isn't a fugitive on the run, needing to be caught and handcuffed to you. It's already within you. It's that moment the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. Your heart skips a beat. Your stomach flips. Get out of your head & watch out for those tiny whispers.

The feeling of starting a company never gets old. It’s hard to find those electric moments in the changing room before a game. But, not impossible. I’m here to help as many other athletes find the next thing for them that makes the hair on the back of their neck stand up.

Your sporting career finishes. You worry about the future. Of course you do. It's only natural. But, there is no path ahead to worry about because it hasn’t been trodden yet. Start focussing on where you are today - where is your energy trying to take you? Go that way.

I'm going to address something on all of your minds. "Is it even possible to have free time these days?" Short answer: Yes How: Get comfortable saying no

My 6 years post rugby in less than 118.4 seconds. Including how I missed out on £100k by 43 seconds. Head here to read: linkedin.com/posts/samsmith…

I lasted 3 minutes... The 1st time I went to watch a rugby match after retiring. I burst into tears and left. Sat in my car, I remember saying these kind words: "What the f*ck is wrong with you. Man up" I wish I'd known that asking for help was braver than bottling it all up

Horizontal vs. Vertical development Horizontal - learning to do more Vertical - learning to be different To live in a different world you've got to be willing to make sacrifices. Horizontal growth is good. To a point. Vertical growth changes your life.
