Personal trainer/Coach

I started my personal training business 3 years ago when I was really struggling to enjoy life, I had fu**ed up my college course,I made a lot of bad choices around gambling drinking ect then I fell deeper in to that whole after I left I started working in bars late nights not a great place for me to be considering my lack of discipline around alcohol. I then moved on years later to get a job in a factory the supposedly best job you could get outside of college degrees. I should have knowing that that job was not for me because I need to be in an active environment that yields results and growth and that's just what I need to stay focused, safe to say that I hated my job that I spend 5 days a week in. IT just was not for me it's perfect for other people just not for me . It had got to a point were it was affecting me mentally.I was so unhappy I needed to get out and go start something new and this was not easy as I had a lot of pressure from other people telling me that that job was the best thing for me and that I would be foolish to give it up. I was drinking a lot trying to escape.It got to a point that every Sunday I would go out just to make myself unwell so I could justify not going to work the next day then I would try think of excuses not to go the day after that and so on. What I should have realised is that nobody knows what's best for me I should have understood that only I know and they were only looking out for me telling me to stay in the job and I was crazy to leave, but I would have ended up in a worse place if I didn't leave.

One day I sat in the house for a full day staring at a piece of paper trying to get options onto a page to see what I could do to fix this situation that I had got myself into a vicious circle of unhappiness. I knew I needed a job where I could thrive be active and interact with people. So i enrolled myself in a Personal trainer and group instructor course , to be honest when I first set out doing this course I never thought that I would be doing what I am now. I always had a big sporting background, I played anything I could when I was young and got into the gym when I was 16 but I never thought i'd be a fully operational P.T. I was going to use it as a chance to help myself get my mind back on track and into a environment were I could grow again and be happy, But to say I am delighted the way It worked out is an understatement I love what I am doing at the minute I get to help people change their health and fitness situation and I love the gym environment/lifestyle.

Anyway I completed the course and 3 years later I am a full time personal trainer and class instructor working in a gym, coaching semi-private classes , 1on1 session and I have started my own online training business which is kicking off a bit quicker than I thought it would. When I look back now I have regrets that I did not get myself out of the situation I had got into earlier but you just don't see it sometimes when your judgement is impaired and who knows if I left earlier would I be doing what I am now.

So that's how I started my business it's never too late to grow and fix something you only live once and i'm going to make the most of my life!!!! what are you going to do with yours??????? 👊😉.
