and Pliability.
In the past, I had struggled to get into a daily stretching routine even though I understand how important it is to help reduce stress levels and the risk of injuries in the gym.
I then stumbled upon Pliability, and for the last 18 months, I've barely missed a day, and I feel awesome!

It’s my 38th trip around the sun this week, and every year I write a little post about the things I’ve been pondering and learning this year that have made me healthier, happier, fitter and stronger.
Let’s go..
-
Discipline is a muscle that needs to be exercised daily. Find something that’s good for you to do that you don’t want to do and do it every dam day!
-
Nothing humbles the ego and calms the mind better than practising Jiu Jitsu.
-
The sober life is not for me. Life is better with wine and beer. Moderation is key
-
It’s incredible what daily cold plunges will do for your body and mind.
-
Mindfulness is bodybuilding for the brain. It will help you to have thoughts and allow them to pass without judgement.
-
Escapism is good for the head in small doses. For some people, it’s Netflix; for me, it’s virtual table tennis.
-
The older I get, the less shiny things I want.
-
Leave people better than when you found them.
-
Life is easier to play when you stretch every day.
-
Overwhelm is caused by having too many thoughts in your head. Daily brain dumps will help with this.
-
The heaviest weight in the gym is the front door - James Clear
-
Real strength is sharing your feelings with others.
-
It’s easy to talk to people and make new friends when you ask them questions about themselves and genuinely want to hear the answers.
-
“We should submit ourselves to a higher standard than we can ever achieve because the minute we become satisfied, we are lost” - The Shrink and the Sage
-
If you want your life to change, don’t watch from the sidelines; participate!
-
Write a list of all the things you look for in a partner, and make sure you embody them yourself. - Sahil Bloom
-
If you're consumed by what others may think of you, rest assured they are likely doing the same about themselves. Consequently, no one is actually spending their time pondering about you.
-
Don’t listen to what people say; watch what they do. Action and results are more powerful than words.
-
The brain is for thinking, not for remembering; write shit down.
-
All your excuses for not doing something are entirely valid, however…Allowing them to stop you from doing things will not improve your life.
-
No one ever won an argument with a stranger on the internet.
-
Blaming others for the problems in your life takes your power away from solving them yourself.
-
I still have no clue what I’m doing with my life, and I’m winging it every day. Newsflash so is everyone else.
-
Seek discomfort every day, and your life will become more comfortable.
-
Daily breathwork calms the mind, so make sure you do it often.
-
You’re the average of the last five people you had a WhatsApp conversation with.
-
The best investment you can make is in your own personal development.
-
You’ll never fix a feeling with a lot of thinking.
-
Never take things personally. Most of the negative things that people say and do have everything to do with them and nothing to do with you.
-
Casinos still play with casino chips because something physical still holds more value than something digital.
-
Knowledge isn’t free; you have to pay attention.
-
Everything is “easier said than done.”
-
You can have everything you ever wanted and still be unhappy if you don’t know how to appreciate it.
-
The sexiest thing a person can wear is their confidence.
-
If you don’t sacrifice for what you want, what you want becomes the sacrifice.
-
Most problems can be solved with a good night's sleep.
-
And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music. - Friedrich Nietzsche
-
A person who is always deeply immersed in feelings doesn’t have control over things. A person who is always in control of things doesn’t have time for feelings. Both are fools and unhappy!
I hope you enjoyed my 38 things!
Let me know which ones were you’re favourite, and I’ll speak to you next week for more knowledge bombs!
