โผ๏ธ WARNING: LONG AND RAW POST AHEAD โผ๏ธ
This morning, I caught myself simply looking at this logo on the television that displays the workouts each day and I got hit with a complete sense of pride and gratitude.
Running a small business is incredibly difficult and the fitness industry is a complete bloodbath, if Iโm honest.
You mix the two together and itโs a damn rollercoaster ride a lot of the time, so little moments that I had to myself in the gym allow me to stay grounded.
That moment came from being proud of everything thatโs come into fruition the last few years and making the brand something thatโs completely true to my core.
One For All. Itโs exactly that.
It also came from looking around and being surrounded with the people that I am truly blessed to share my mornings and afternoons with in this space.
Often in small business, youโre either focusing on growth or panicking when things are going pear shaped that you forget to just simply enjoy what you have NOW - which is a solid community of people that were members that became my friends.
Iโm really grateful for you all.
You lot, as well as my family are forever the fire that continues to burn in me to kick on no matter what.
You often see the high energy, hear the whacky questions and see the complete lunacy on display by me on the daily.
What you may not know, is when times go pear shaped (and in the last few years - there have been plenty of times) I get anxious from to time, yet, turning up each day being with you lot have truly assisted me to keep pushing, because this s**t matters to me.
You see a fun, big kid on the daily too - but what you may not see is behind that, thereโs a stubborn, relentless mother you know what, who is NEVER willing to quit.
The efforts that my wife Brooke went to with painting and organising the logos, along with my love for you lot and everything that comes with the gym will ALWAYS keep this fire inside of me.
After 8.5 years, thereโs still plenty of it and this s**t isnโt just flickering.
This isnโt just โsmall businessโ to me. This is my life and I bloody love it.
Thank you for reading and being apart of it ๐
