Linked Coach

Is your client discovery call booking calendar full? If not, please read on... 

Spoiler alert- You may learn something you never knew before.

Most people will tell you you need to run ads to a webinar, give away ebooks, set up a Facebook business page and do lots of other potentially pointless actions to fill up your booking calendar.

I can tell you that it's a load of baloney! Yes, there are lots of ways to fill your calendar, and they all require lots of work. But most of them produce little or no results.

If however, your audience is on LinkedIn (most audiences are!) then I can tell you, it's probably THE best place on the planet to find potential clients for your business.

Unlike other social media platforms, most users on LinkedIn are highly educated and highly paid. (The average salary of a user in the US is over $100K/year). 

They're also generally more serious about getting results in life and in business and not interested in videos of cute kittens or who got drunk at the weekend.

This means that if you know how to attract and interact with them your chances of creating clients are multiplied many times.

As a LinkedIn business coach at LinkedCoach 🤓 I can show you exactly how to do this and systemise it in such a way that actually creates real connection in an authentic way with your audience, resulting in more clients... lots more clients!

But even knowing all this is not enough. I've seen so many coaches, consultants and entrepreneurs fail, not because of their systems or knowledge of how LinkedIn works but because they didn't have the mindset to make it all work.

So at LinkedCoach, we don't just focus on mechanisms. We focus on people too, and helping them to get out of their own way to take the actions that produce results. We've done this for thousands of coaches and know exactly what it takes...

So, I’m a Coach that helps Coaches, Consultants and Small Business Owners simplify using LinkedIn to create high-paying clients so they can build incredible businesses that change the world. 

I do this because I passionately believe that everyone has the ability and the right to work for themselves, if they so choose, and I know that LinkedIn is THE best tool to enable them to do that.

Most people struggle with LinkedIn because they’re posting endlessly, have a profile that’s not getting noticed, or can’t find the right clients (or all 3 of those!). I fix all that – and I do it without the typical LinkedIn hustle.

So, how can I help? 

Well, the first thing I would recommend is to join the community. We share training, workshops, challenges, live events and much more for absolutely no cost. Nada. Zero. Gratis!!!

And we don't just focus on LinkedIn... Yes, LinkedIn is a brilliant tool to help grow your business, but what really moves the needle is developing an entrepreneur mindset and keeping yourself accountable.

All good things must come to an end

Yes, we're ending our business relationship...

I've known Tina for 7 years and worked with her on and off for 5.

We have a lot in common and we've become great friends.

Now we're going in different directions. Which makes me sad.

But I'm also excited - for both of us!

Tina wants to do something that lights up her soul, and I have no doubt what she's working on is going to be incredible. (Watch that space!)

And I want to do what I do best - helping people with their LinkedIn & business growth strategy. 

So we're both doubling down on what works for each of us.

It doesn't mean I'll never work with Tina again. I'm sure I will. We'll always have a connection and I know we'll collaborate on projects in future.

But now it's time for each of us to spread our wings.

Watch this space - things are evolving and I can't wait to share what's coming up.

Here's to new beginnings.

I'm off to have a little cry now. 😢

LinkedIn is changing fast. Don't get left behind.

Here's what I'm doing about it...

People are fed up with AI generated posts, engagement pods and DM pitch slaps.

Trust is at an all time low.

Now with the new Boost feature, impressions have never been so low.
But I don't care.

Because I know the real value on LinkedIn is networking and relationship building.

So in 2026, here's what I'll be doing:

- Writing my own posts (no AI)
- Creating an email/web newsletter
- Repurposing it as a LinkedIn newsletter
- Reaching out to connect with more people
- Creating lead magnets that help solve problems
- Running live events to show people how to do all this

I'm going to run through the whole process in upcoming workshops. If you want to be notified about them, get on my email list. No spam - I promise 😉

Open article: How LinkedIn Is Changing by Adrian Shiel • 8 min read

I made a commitment to myself that I would post every day Monday to Friday...

So this is me keeping my promise to myself.

I really didn't feel like posting today, or have anything that I really wanted to say.

I get those days sometimes, but usually I have content written in advance.

Not today.

So at least you know this was written by me and not ChatGPT 😅

Do you have 'those days'?

What do you do when you have them?

Photo of Adrian Shiel with hands up in the air

Want to get 1,000+ subscribers in 7 days?

I'll give you the exact strategy to do it.

I created aa resources document for a workshop on how to use LinkedIn newsletters to combat falling impressions.

Lisa Hammett attended and took immediate action.

She got 625 subscribers in less than 24 hours and over 1,000 in 7 days.

If you could get those kind of numbers on your email list you'd probably be prepared to pay good money for it, especially as you know they're going to be engaged readers.

So why wouldn't you do that with your LinkedIn newsletter?

Just let me know down there if you want the document with ALL the resources (and more) and I'll send it across.

Are you using LinkedIn newsletters? They're easier and way more effective than you might believe... 

And I can prove it. Ask me how 😉

I forgot to give 47 people something that helped someone else get 1,000+ newsletter subscribers.

In less than 7 days

And I feel bad about it.

Last week I ran a workshop on LinkedIn newsletters. 

Tech failed spectacularly (everyone was called 'Adrian Shiel' 😅), but people still got results.

𝗟𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝘀𝗮, 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗴𝗼𝘁 𝟭,𝟬𝟬𝟬+ 𝘀𝘂𝗯𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝟳 𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀.

She messaged me after: "Thanks to your brilliance I now have 625 subscribers!"

(Now she's over 1,000)

From ZERO. In a week.

But here's what's bothering me...

A ton people signed up for the replay but I completely forgot to send them the resources. The templates, the silver bullet strategy, the repurposing framework - everything Lisa used.

They got the recording but not the actual tools.

𝗦𝗼 𝗜'𝗺 𝗳𝗶𝘅𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗻𝗼𝘄.

If you want the exact resources that helped Lisa get 1,000+ subscribers (and that I forgot to give all those people), let me know down there 👇🏻

I'll send you:

• A custom GPT to write hooks
• Everything from the workshop
• The image sizes to use in articles
• The silver bullet invite strategy template
• The repurposing system, 4 long form + 10 posts
• My newsletter framework to bypass the algorithm
• A custom GPT to pull post ideas from articles or videos

Impressions are tanking. We all know it.

But newsletters? They go straight to inboxes. No algorithm BS.

Lisa proved it works. And honestly? If she can get 1,000 subscribers while I'm having tech meltdowns, you can too.

Just let me know and I'll send everything over.

PS - Yes, this works even if you think it's not for your industry. Lisa writes about mental fitness and burnout in healthcare. But she makes it valuable. And that's why she got 1,000+ subscribers in 7 days. 🤓

I know why your followers don't convert into leads.

And I know how to fix it.

LinkedIn is different from all other social media platforms in may ways...

• It's for networking
• It's great for business
• It can help you find a job
• It's the 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘧𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭 platform
• Its users are the highest earners

All these things are true, but there's something else very different about LinkedIn that you need to understand if you want to use it to help grow your business.

𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝘃𝘀. 𝗙𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝘀

It's great to have thousands of followers on LinkedIn.

And you should always aim to have as many as possible.

But connections are equally, if not more important.

That's because of the way the algorithm works.

Whenever you post something the algorithm runs a test with your 1st degree connections before anyone else.

So you have to be sure that not only does your content land with them, but they are also the right kind of person, i.e. your ICP.

If you don't have a high percentage of your ideal clients in your network, you may grow your following with random people, signalling to LinkedIn that they should show your content to more random people, instead of your potential clients.

And here's the most important part: 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗺𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝟭𝘀𝘁 𝗱𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆. 

But 𝗡𝗢𝗧 your followers (unless they have open profile...)

You might think "so what?" 

Well, I'll tell you what... 🤓

Business is about relationships, not followers.

You can garner attention and communicate '1-to-many' through content.

And that goes some way to building a relationship.

But if you sell a high-ticket offer, you need to have 1-to-1 conversations.

So when your followers send you signals like:

• Subscribing to your LI newsletter
• Opting in to your lead magnets
• Commenting on your posts
• Engaging with your posts
• Inviting you to connect
• Viewing your profile
• Or following you

This is the exact moment 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 to start a real, human 1-to-1 conversation. 

It takes effort, but it's the fastest way to grow your business.

Agree or disagree?

PS - I ran a workshop last week to teach people exactly how and why LinkedIn newsletters are a great idea - especially in the current climate of all time low impressions. You can watch eh replay here: https://lnkd.in/df2x4bG6

Adrian Shiel in a library, reading a paper with the headline 'Eureka!' and a lightbulb over his head.

My first time speaking in public was a disaster.

I didn't just bomb. I crashed and burned.

I was asked to present in front of about 200 engineers and technicians at the company I worked for. 

The subject I was given didn't feel comfortable from the beginning, but still, I agreed to it, created my little slide deck and off I went.

The brief I was given by the organiser was "just have a discussion - get people talking and debating".

I had no idea whatsoever how to do that and I was nervous as hell.

On the morning of the event, I got into a conversation with one of the other presenters and I shared what I was going to cover.

He asked me to show him my slides, so I did, of course. Why wouldn't I?

He said they were great and it made him remember something he'd missed in his own presentation. That actually helped calm my nerves a little...

He was speaking right before me and to my horror, when he got up to present, I saw that he'd taken the main theme of my presentation and made it the main theme of his.

I can't really remember much about my presentation, except for that awful feeling of complete shame and embarrassment. 

I didn't present in public again for many years. But of course, if you want to progress in a company or in business, public speaking is something you need to master.

So I slowly got back on that horse and kept trying...

I don't think I'll ever feel like I've mastered it. But I don't get hung up on that either.

Last week I ran a workshop. 

I was expecting 20-30 people but over 100 showed up and they were all called Adrian Shiel.

That's not some kind of pun. The were actually named 'Adrian Shiel' in Zoom!

For a few milliseconds, that horrible feeling came over me that reminded me about that incident years earlier. 

But I caught it. I took it in my stride and laughed about it. Everything was fine.

Does this mean I've mastered public speaking?

Probably not, and probably never will. 

But I no longer get stressed out when things don't go to plan. 

So I guess I've mastered something within myself. I'll take that.

Got any public speaking horror stories of your own? I'd love to hear them, just to know I'm not alone 🤣

Me with a fake surprised look on my face speaking in public with the audience's faces also looking surprised.

People are freaking out about the boost feature. 

But I’m laughing about it. Why? 

Because I know the real money on LI is in the DMs.

So I'm not that bothered by declining impressions.

People come here and post AI generated 'meh' posts and think that's going to get them clients.

But what gets overlooked is that it doesn't matter how good your content is (well, I guess good content helps 🤓).

If you don't know how to network and build relationships, it's always going to be a struggle.

Because it comes down to this:

People do business with people they trust.

So if you just focus on building trust, it will help your business grow.

And in my opinion there's no better place to do that than LinkedIn.

Agree or disagree?

AI can draft posts.

It can't build trust.

You can.

Positive Masculinity

Positive Masculinity is about allowing men to authentically be themselves, breaking free from societal expectations, disregarding external opinions, and cultivating a 100% clear understanding of who they are. The core belief is that being true to oneself leads to 100% success.

The coaching is tailored for men who have realised the emptiness of material success and aspire to change the world by first transforming themselves. It targets those tired of conforming to someone else's rules, leading to stress and frustration. This coaching is for men who sense they are destined for more, value compassion and empathy, seek meaningful relationships, and strive for personal freedom. It's for selfless, loyal, adventurous, brave men who seek clarity, conviction, and purpose in life.

The Power Shift Coaching Method, my unique approach, focuses on internal thoughts and emotions, shifting attention from external circumstances. This addresses the root cause of stress by rewiring perception and belief systems. The Prioritise, Optimise, Execute Philosophy guides participants in defining a compelling vision, aligning habits with core values, optimising mindset and behaviours through belief system rewiring, and executing their vision with clarity and confidence.

My coaching facilitates holistic transformation, encompassing mental, emotional, and behavioural shifts. Participants gain agency and empowerment by understanding the underlying mechanisms driving their actions. Through cycles of self-discovery, belief system realignment, and goal execution, individuals emerge as masters of their own destiny.

Every single man I've worked with has a renewed purpose and direction. Armed with clarity, confidence, and a refined belief system, they navigate life with ease and authenticity. With a clear roadmap and aligned priorities, they embark on a journey of joy, fulfilment, and impactful living, both personally and professionally.

Coaching and Mentoring Successful Men Who Feel Stuck to Cultivate Confidence, Connection, Empowerment, Purpose, and Clarity for Lasting Happiness. Men's Coach.

Fellas, you’ve got everything you ever wanted… so why does it feel like something’s missing?

The career. The income. The responsibilities. The respect.
From the outside, you’ve made it.

But inside?
The pressure never stops.
Your time isn’t your own.
Switching off feels impossible.

And when you do try to take a break, the guilt kicks in.
Because in your world, slowing down feels like slacking.
Taking care of yourself feels like taking away from others.
Saying no feels like letting people down.

So you push through. You tell yourself, “This is just how it is.”

Until the stress, exhaustion, and frustration start bleeding into every part of your life, your energy, your health, your relationships.
It doesn’t have to be this way.

Imagine…
🥳Waking up clear-headed, with energy that lasts all day.
🥳Running your business or career at a high level without running yourself into the ground.
🥳Setting boundaries without guilt, so your time, health, and well-being come first, without compromise.
🥳Feeling in control of your life instead of being pulled in a hundred directions.
🥳Doing the things you love with the people you love, without that nagging voice telling you, “You should be working.”

This isn’t about slowing down. It’s about optimising your life, so success and well-being work together, not against each other.

The Power Shift Method: Take Back Control of Your Life

I help driven men, business owners, leaders, and professionals, break free from stress, guilt, and exhaustion so they can perform at their best by prioritising their well-being.

Through The Power Shift Method, I give you the strategies, structure, and mindset shifts to master your energy, decisions, and habits. It’s built on three powerful steps:
🔹 Prioritise – Get crystal clear on what truly matters to you. Define your vision, cut the noise, and align your life with your values.
🔹 Optimise – Align your time, energy, and habits with that vision. Set powerful, guilt-free boundaries and rewire the beliefs that are keeping you stuck.
🔹 Execute – Take bold, strategic action. Make high-performance your default state without falling into burnout or self-sacrifice.

Because peak performance and well-being aren’t opposites, they’re the foundation for long-term success.

I’ve lived it, cracked the code, and built the system for you.

What’s Next?
If you’re ready to step out of the stress cycle and into a life of clarity, control, and guilt-free well-being, let’s talk.

🔹 Book a ‘virtual cuppa’ for a no obligation informal chat.

It’s time to build a life that works for you. 🫵🏻

This has GOT TO STOP!
Too many good men are quietly falling apart...

I’m furious that this has become normal.
Too many men are burning out, breaking down, and calling it “just life.”

That's why Jamie Humphrey and I have pulled together a superb group of men for International Men's Day for a live event that's going to be real, raw and honest.

Too many men are lying to themselves, shutting down, numbing out, just surviving.
At best it ends in burnout.
At worst in heart attacks, long-term illness, or suicide.

This is not an f-ing drill. Look at the suicide figures for the UK, it's frightening.

We cannot allow the status quo to continue.
We cannot keep losing good men.
We must stop struggling silently.

We must create the conditions for men to feel comfortable telling the truth, about how they feel and about how debilitating stress, anxiety and overwhelm are.

Overthinking might be common.
But it’s not normal.

Not being able to switch off isn’t strength, it’s a sign we’ve lost connection with ourselves.

Strength is not pushing on through.
Resilience is not endurance.
Power is knowing when to pause.

We all need to stop shrugging it off and saying "well this is just my life now..."

If, like me and Jamie, you’ve had enough
and you want to change this for good
join us on 19th November at 12pm. (link in the comments)

You'll hear from men who've been there and are leading the way out.

Andrew Pain an accredited speaker safeguarding men's mental health.
Dr Edward Rainbow the mind GP who helps men build more sustainable futures.
Paul Sutton host of 'The Middle Man' podcast who speaks to men regularly about their struggles.

And Olumide Ajulo - psychologist and counsellor from Leeds Beckett University, whose research reveals why men aren’t getting the help they need.

How many more good men do we have to lose before we finally change?

Men’s Coach for Clarity, Purpose & Peak Performance | Positive Masculinity Mastermind | Creator of The Power Shift Method™ | Inspirational Speaker

Wouldn't you love to be surrounded by a group of men who actually get it?
Men who stand shoulder-to-shoulder with you to figure out life’s challenges and call you forward when you start holding yourself back.

Men you can turn to when life feels tough.

A trusted board of advisors who bring honesty, integrity, and accountability.

That’s what the Positive Masculinity Mastermind is all about.

One monthly online call where we tackle what really stops us performing at our peak, the overthinking, the guilt, the pressure and replace it with calm, confidence, and clarity.

No judgement.
No bravado.
No posturing.

Just real conversations with men who are done pretending everything’s fine.

You can leave any time, no contracts, no heavy commitments. Just £50/month to be part of something that will shift how you think, lead, and live.

Doors close for this round Friday 14th November.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to back yourself, this is it. 🫵🏻

Drop me a message and I'll send further details. Or click the link in the comments.

What's the one thing you wish men talked about more openly?

Priortise. Optimise. Execute. 😁😇
100% Clarity 100% Belief 100% Success

Most men don’t realise this… until it breaks them.

I used to wear my stress like a badge of honour.

Head down. Keep pushing. Provide. Don’t complain.

That old script men like us inherit without ever agreeing to it.
Which for me turned into perfectionism and chronic anxiety. 
Caused bytThe “push-through-it” mentality.

I genuinely believed endurance was resilience
until it dragged me straight into burnout and cost me more than I care to admit.

I wasn't fine, but that's what I would have told you at the time....
Most men aren’t “fine.”

They’re overloaded, exhausted, trapped in their own success…
trying to hold everything together while their nervous system is on fire.

We confuse coping with thriving.
We wait for a future where we’ll “finally be okay”…
but that future never comes because nothing changes.

That’s why on 19th November at 6pm (UK) I’m joining States of Mind for a live event:
Inside the Male Identity Crisis.

This won’t be another surface-level chat.

It’s an honest, practical conversation about burnout, emotional resilience, and how to calm your nervous system when your head won’t switch off.

If you’re tired of doing this alone…
If you want more clarity, confidence, and a life aligned with your values…
If you know something needs to change but don’t know where to start…

You’ll want to be in the room.

Join us.
It doesn’t have to be this way.

Prioritise. Optimise. Execute. 😁😇
100% Clarity 100% Belief 100% Success

If overthinking burned calories, most men I know would be shredded.
You know that feeling when your mind won’t shut up?
Endless loops of what if, should I, did I do enough.

You tell yourself it’s normal, that it’s just how your brain works.

That this constant noise is the price of providing.

But it’s not normal.
It’s not strength.
And it’s definitely not sustainable.

Most men are mentally sprinting through life, 24/7, thinking they have to figure it all out alone.

Carrying the weight of work, family, and the world on their shoulders, then wondering why they feel stuck, wired, and drained.
I've said it before and I'll say it again until you hear me..

IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY!

You don’t need to handle it all alone.
You don’t need to earn rest or prove your worth through exhaustion.

What you actually need is clarity, calm, and connection, space to switch off, reset, and realign your focus.

That’s exactly what we do inside The Positive Masculinity Mastermind, a monthly group for men ready to rise above burnout and take back control.

☑️  Practical tools.
☑️  Real conversations.
☑️  Accountability that drives change.

It’s £50/month, and the doors close this Friday, 14th November.

If you’ve been stuck in your head for too long, this is your signal to act.

Send me a message today for details.
You’ll stop doing it all alone and start leading with clarity, calm, and confidence.

Prioritse. Optimise. Execute. 😁😇
100% Clarity 100% Belief 100% Success

Overthinking. Not switching off. Struggling silently.
That’s the daily battle for so many men right now.

You lie awake replaying conversations.
You check emails at midnight.

You tell yourself it’s just stress but it’s become your normal.

It doesn’t have to be this way!!

Imagine having a group of men who get it.

Men who listen without judgement, challenge without ego, and hold you accountable to the life you actually want to live.

That’s what we do inside The Positive Masculinity Mastermind.

What it is:
☑️ A monthly online gathering for men who want to think clearly, feel calm, and take back control - with honesty, courage, and integrity.

You’ll get one live group call, a private WhatsApp community, and grounded tools to help you perform at your peak without burning out.

What it isn’t:
❌ This isn’t about toxic positivity, quick fixes, or performative ‘alpha’ energy.
❌ There’s no pressure, posturing, or psychobabble BS.

Just real conversations, real accountability, and real change.

Who it’s for:
☑️ Men who are ready to stop overthinking and start acting.
☑️ Men who are tired of doing it all alone.
☑️ Men who want to redefine success on their own terms and live with calm, confidence, and clarity.

Who it’s not for:
❌ Men looking for a motivational pep talk, a magic formula, or a place to compete.

If you’re not ready to be honest with yourself, it’s probably not your time yet.

You can leave anytime, no contracts, no pressure.

Just £50/month to invest in your mindset, energy, and purpose.

My wife calls it one of my 'scenic detours'. I call it creative navigation. 
Either way, we ended up in the wrong valley. 😳

We were hiking in the Yorkshire Dales, that mix of wind, drizzle and wild beauty that makes you feel small and alive at the same time.

I’d brought my new compass, determined to prove a point.

“This time,” I told her, “we’re not getting lost.”
She smiled the kind of smile that says, we’ll see. 🤨😂

Five minutes later, I’m checking the compass every few seconds.

“Was that north… or was it slightly northeast?”
I turn it again. And again.
The needle keeps twitching.
My chest tightens. I mutter, “Come on, just stay still.”
I start shaking it furiously...

Then the voice in my head kicks in. "What if we’re already off course? What if you’ve messed it up again? You always do this." 😫

The more I 'try' to figure it out, the worse it gets. 😤

The map’s flapping, the wind’s howling, and I’m spinning in circles while my wife quietly says, “We’re lost again, aren’t we?”

She’s right, of course.
Eventually, I stop. I take a breath.
I hold the compass flat in my palm and just… wait.

Bit by bit, the needle settles.

And when I finally trust what it’s showing me, trust myself, everything falls into place.

The path appears.
We find our way back.

That’s when it hit me.

The compass had been right all along.

It was me, my constant checking, analysing, overcorrecting, that threw it off.

That’s exactly what 'overthinking' does.
You already know where you’re heading.
You just don’t give yourself the stillness or self-trust to follow it.

That’s why I created The Positive Masculinity Mastermind.

For men who are tired of second-guessing themselves and want to feel calm, clear, and in control again.

One monthly online call.
A private WhatsApp group.

Real conversations that help you switch off without guilt and trust your own direction again.

It’s £50/month, cancel any time.
Doors close tonight! Friday 14th November.

Send me a quick message and I’ll send you the details.

Maybe it’s time to stop spinning the compass and start trusting your true north.
Anyone else have a terrible sense of direction?

If you spoke to others the way you speak to yourself… you’d have no friends left.

Most men never admit this out loud.

That the harshest, most relentless voice in their life…
is the one inside their own head.

The voice that tells you you’re behind.
The voice that tells you you should be further on.
The voice that takes one small mistake and whispers:
“There you go again… typical... you stupid ****”

You can lead a team, provide for your family, solve a crisis, and hold everything together, yet still get dismantled by a quiet sentence no one else hears.

The truth is your inner critic isn’t even yours. 😳

You absorbed it.

From childhood expectations.
Family dynamics.
School.
Sport.
Work.
Comparison.

The pressure to “be a man” and never crack.

You’ve been carrying someone else’s voice and calling it truth.

This is why you’re exhausted… even on the days you “haven’t done much.”

It’s why you procrastinate on things you actually care about.
It’s why you overthink everything.
It’s why you don’t feel proud of yourself, even when you achieve.

Negative self-talk doesn’t just dent confidence.

It shapes your identity if you never stop to challenge it.

The good news is, it doesn't have to be this way...

You can retrain it. 🫵🏻
You can rewrite it. 🫵🏻
You can replace it. 🫵🏻

You can build clarity, confidence and control from the inside out.

You don’t need to bully yourself into becoming the man you want to be.
You need to stop fighting yourself.

If this hits home, if you recognise the voice I’m talking about, I’ve put together a simple, powerful tool to help you take the first step:

My Negative Self-Talk Worksheet, that I developed from my 1:1 client work. It's a practical way to catch the critic, challenge it, and reclaim your headspace.

Because you can build a life that feels good on the inside, not just one that looks good on the outside.

What's the most horrid thing you say to yourself on a regular basis that you would never say to anyone else?

Stop accepting suffering as normal!
I’m genuinely p-d off...

Because too many good men have just accepted suffering as their reality.

Stress.
Frustration.
Anxiety.
Overthinking.

Running on caffeine and adrenaline, unable to switch off, no energy left for the people they love. Short tempered and having a few beers to take the edge off.

And they just shrug and accept it. 

And we call that life?
We call that success?

It doesn’t have to be this way!!

We don’t have to bend ourselves out of shape, sacrificing our health, our relationships, and our peace of mind, just to earn a few quid.

We can operate from the Three Cs of calm confidence, clarity, and control… and probably earn more as a result. (I did in my previous career)

Because time is our most precious resource.
And our focus and attention is how we spend it.

Yet most men let their focus be hijacked by distraction, by reaction, by everyone else’s demands.

And every time you do that, you’re giving away your power.

Your focus and attention are yours.
You control them.
You don’t have to live by society’s rules or anyone else’s expectations.

You can live by your own, with integrity, authenticity, and self-respect.

Stop living from “should”, “must”, and “have to”.

That’s the language of guilt and resentment.
It kills self-worth.

You are not a human doing.
You are a human being.

So, ask yourself this: who are you being?

Are you deliberate, present, in control?
Or are you a victim of your own life?

Because if you are, there’s only one person who can change it.
You. 🫵🏻

Stop settling.
Stop coping.
Stop saying “I’m fine” when you’re anything but.

You deserve better.
Your family deserves better.
The people you love deserve better.
Come on fellas, let’s do better!

Prioritse. Optimise. Execute. 😁😇
