Favourite piece of advice received:
"If you don't shine as you think you should, try cleaning the light bulb before blaming the power station."

I find this helps to remind me to concentrate on bringing things into my control and making efforts to make them evolve positively. I try to focus less on things I can't control.

"No one is completely wrong, they must be correct at some level. Consequently, everything is true and/but partial." (Ken Wilber, Cosmic Consciousness CD)

This helps me to keep open minded about opinions, viewpoints and theories. If you presuppose most people are right at some level and not completely wrong then you tend to listen more and understand more things. I apply this to myself also and consequently I know I don't know complete answers to anything really. I only know the partial truth and this keeps me interested in learning from people.

Inspirations: Sir Ranulph Fiennes, Tiger Woods, Sir Clive Woodward, Jonah Barrington, Parents, Ken Wilber.

My Coaching Philosophy (in 100 words!!):
As coaching directly involves people and communication the 'coach' first and foremost must continually develop high level skills in understanding people and how most appropriately to communicate with them. People are different. We are strange concoctions of emotional, physical, spiritual and behavioral qualities. If, as a coach, you can utilize and develop a person's specific qualities to a high percentage and you can offer beneficial content knowledge relating to the sport in question, then you are likely to help create a player who achieves close to their fullest potential. Wherever that takes them will remain unknown until it happens! Ultimately, I believe the coach should nurture players to become highly emotionally intelligent people, who ironically begin to make their coaches almost redundant.

Key Words: Innovation, Optimism, Planning, Enjoyment, Learning, Growth, Desire, Honesty, Integral
