Here’s a quick quiz for you. You don’t have to send in a response or email or even answer out loud. This is a quiet quiz.

Ready?

  • Can you name the last 3 Nobel Peace Prize winners?
  • How about the last 3 Brownlow Medal winners?
  • Any 3 Miss Australia winners?
  • The last 3 Melbourne Cup winners?

If you’re anything like me you have struggled with some or all of the answers, and yet these people (or horses) reached the absolute top of their chosen field. Some of them have contributed to the well being and happiness of 1000’s of people, and yet we forget them as quickly as they are announced.

Let’s try another quiz.

  • Can you remember 3 teachers from school that made a real impact on you?
  • Can you remember 3 friends who made an effort to help you out of a tough spot?
  • Can you recognize 3 family members who you will never be able to fully express your appreciation for the difference they have made in your life?

Isn’t that interesting?

The people who make the most difference in our lives, the hero’s who are most memorable are not necessarily the ones who win awards. They don’t get applauded by 1000’s and written up in magazines and newspapers.

Our hero’s, who make a difference, are often the one’s closest to us who simply do what they do day in, day out.

So here’s two challenges.

Firstly, thank your hero’s, give them a little recognition.

Secondly, what are you doing to be a hero for someone else?

Give Yourself Space For Success!

An Interesting Concept - Finding Space for Success in Your Life!

Answer me this - Do you have enough space for Success in Your Life?

What I mean is, do you have time in your life when you are able to ponder? So many of us are so busy in “the thick of thin things” as Stephen Covey puts it, or “majoring in the minors” according to Tony Robbins that we don’t have time to wonder what is possible. The time we take to sit and dream can pay us enormous dividends. It’s when we stop having conversations with the voices in our heads (yes, we all have them) that creativity has the opportunity to take place.

Remember Pavlov’s dog? There is a gap between stimulus (the bell ringing), and response (the dog salivating) where we humans have the opportunity to choose. Do you recognize that gap? Being able to choose our response, rather than reacting (or over reacting) to any situation is what separates us from animals.

Are you choosing wisely or simply responding the way you’ve always responded? That gap can make all the difference. Have you heard the saying “if you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got.”

If you’re happy with what you’re getting keep doing what you’re doing. If you want better results, take a moment… Ever considered a career in the fitness and health industry?

What’s so important about making a difference?
Consider the alternative. How would feel about a career that doesn’t benefit anyone? A job (justify our breathing) that you turn up to each day, doing the same stuff, with mediocre outcomes? Sounds fairly uninspiring doesn’t it?

The health and fitness industry is making a difference.
As a personal fitness trainer or massage therapist you can change people’s lives - for the better! Make a difference by helping people take control of their lives, losing weight, gaining strength, avoiding cardiovascular disease, having more energy and relieving stress.

Making a difference is what will inspire you to get up each day!

Personal trainers make a difference every day inspiring their clients to exercise harder, with better direction, better exercise selection, and ultimately better results. Massage therapists make a difference every day with their clients releasing tight muscles, avoiding pain and injury and reducing stress.Full time personal trainers and massage therapists enjoy a lifestyle and a purpose for life that few other careers can offer.

So where do you go to get a career, not just a qualification? Which educational facility will “Make a difference” for you?
WYN Training stands for “What You Need”. Courses have been designed with career outcomes so our graduates are successful in the health and fitness industry. Graduates from WYN work in every major health club chain, small facility and sporting organisation in Australia. Many graduates take their skills abroad.

So what does WYN do that guarantees your success? Classes are available at four campuses in Victoria, plus South Australia and NSW. Full time courses can get you industry ready in eight weeks as a personal trainer or nine weeks as a massage therapist. Part time courses are available to work around other study or working commitments. Classes have a maximum number of 16 students each. This means you get 200% more attention from your lecturers than the industry average.

Finally they have the MAD Training System (Making A Difference). An integrated approach to changing someone’s behavior and actions to give them the results they want.  It’s that attention to detail that makes the difference.
