WORKWork is going a dream, to be honest. Ive just signed a new contract and I wasnt sure that would happen. Now that Ive signed an extension for the lease at work I can properly get to work. In the next 12 months I want another gym up and running, I will be really annoyed if I havent.Im working 30 hours this week at £30-35 an hour. With other trainers working 10-15 a week, paying me £10 per hour...

Ive not posted on this in so long, mainly because ive been so busy. Why of which I will write about.I only ever really write on here when somethings on my mind....WORKIve been so busy with work, I own a private gym in Aberdeen and its busy, its going well. In my first year of business (2017) I turned over £30,000 and had a profit of around £10,000.... for any business, thats incredible, let...

The businessThe business itself is going quite well, I sometimes still have to pinch myself about where I am. I sometimes feel a lot of spite towards myself because of my extreme opinions and views on everything, and because it seems to be working towards helping my current success. I think the fact Ive even manage to get where I am now is very good - but its not enough for me. Im always wanting...

I havent wrote on here in a while purely because Ive been so busy with things. I dont know why I write on here, I dont expect anybody to read it, maybe one day I could look back at it and have a laugh. Life has changed so much, I feel like I have grown up and now Im bang in the middle of adult life but I still have and always will have the same old immature funny humour, it makes me different....

What isnt there going on in my life??The business has a problemUni is taking over my lifeMy ex girlfriend is talking to me againTime is non-existentThe business is going very well, Im making some extremely good money considering I only work 10-15 hours a week, like VERY good money.However, the person I rent the gym off is going solo, this means myself and the other trainers have only so long to...

I know a lot of people that will do nothing but work, they dont have much of a life, its not very nice to say but its true. Some of my friends have been in a relationship their entire life, dont get me wrong, relationships are gold, I miss mine, I do... but at the same time every single person needs to experience heartbreak in order to grow, it makes you stronger and it makes you who you are.I...

Recently, because mainly University is getting harder and making us learn a whole load of weird theories, I sometimes create my own....Something that Im amazed by is why some people, like myself currently, are working hard and being successful, earning very good money, yet Im still miserable?Some people will never work, they will remain unemployed with no motivation or goals.Some people will get...

The businessIn my last blog I explained how Ive started a hybrid business, however its hard work. Trying to fit it in with my life alongside University - especially this upcoming semester will be the biggest obstacle ive ever faced. Im breaking even, which if you offered me at the start, Id have probably snapped your hand off - I can see why SO many new businesses fail, its really hard.I worry and...

Right, first things first, no name calling in this to save myself from possible liability.But I work for myself and rent from another company, in return I gain facilities and occasional business, in the meantime I also have to find custom for myself. Its hard, but I love it, and Im bloody good at what I do, but there are a couple of very bad things within the duopoly business, you might say.For...

Wow.What a hectic few months, I never allow myself to stop and think because if I do I will just stop. I come from a pretty poor area in England with the a childhood that isnt something that Id like to think was amazing, but now and Im flying.The business itself is slow, its going to take around 1 year I think before I start making serious money, but this is mainly why I started it now, doing it...

Coming homeIve been home now for 3 weeks, but it feels so so so so much longer, mainly because Im constantly doing stuff and seeing friends. On average I will see around 2/3 people a day, driving to various places, and thats usually after I go to the gym in the morning. I sleep so well - mainly because my mind is at ease, Ive been with people I love, I have a slight edge of happiness that isnt...

The last couple of weeks have been somewhat good, some of my friends came up from England and along with a friend from University we went off to T in the Park, that was so much fun. My diet went out the window and ive put on a lot of weight. Then the other night I went off to a gig with Ella, a girl in Aberdeen who ive known for a few years, and who ive slowly warmed to... She stayed over the...

So the other week my course started, its hard, its really hard, and Sunday is assessment day where we have to do 2 theory tests and a practical exam, Im praying for a minor miracle because I am nervous, but I think once we get started it will be alright, Im fairly confident in myself. If I fail I fail, and I will just do it again, but the plan is to pass, and then have a good time at T in the...

The other weekend was by far the best couple of days ive had this year so far, after constant work and study, it was an odd feeling being able to wind myself down and relax for a number of days at least without any worries and without any studying.On the Friday I got the train down to Preston, arriving at around 9pm, I met Jamie and James both at the pub where they had a pint waiting for me,...

Start of something potentially specialWork and bossSo today marks the last early shift Im ever going to do and the last weekend of work at my current job, its a really nice feeling knowing I dont have to get up at 4am anymore to come to work at a pretty dead end job. Instead Im working during the week with normal day shifts. Why? I decided that to give myself the best possible chance of tackling...

In LimboSo University has finished for the year and its that time of the year, those 1/2 months where everything is just in limbo, because of my part time job I cant go anywhere like away to see friends or back home, and because of my course this year in the summer Im almost fixed up here until August. At the moment during the week I dont really do much, I workout every single day and then study...

So last night I fell asleep at around 10ish, getting up at 4.20 for work, which is where I am now. Considering during the week when I have Uni and Placement I average around 9 hours sleep a night, I dont mind cutting back to 5/6 hours sleep on the weekends, its easy once you get your head around it.It keeps me busy, and for a student at Uni it keeps me with more a lot money than I actually need at...

Things are changingSo this week I had my step sisters home and my step cousin from Devon, as always ofcourse its nice to see them but seeing people I havent seen in so long is interesting. I feel things are changing, I feel my mind is thinking differently and because over the past 6-8 months ive had this sudden urge to become independent and successful, my ambition has come back from where it was...

So this week I was well back into routine, after work on the weekend I had a busy week with uni and placement, mixed with my normal gym workouts to keep my body in very very good shape. The weeks are going to get busier and it will keep my mind off anything else, because I do like a drink and to have a good time with mates. The early mornings for work have never been easy but you just get on with...

Home, Nan and Mum, plans for 2016Well yesterday I arrived back in Aberdeen after being back home in Torquay for around 2 weeks, and as always it was nice to see everyone. Dad is dad, hes great but after a prolonged period of time with him he does my absolute head in. The first morning I was there I walked up the road to the local gym and got a short membership there, just to keep me in mediocre...
