The first rule of fight skool – tell everyone about fight skool

Last week we started our first fight skool programme at 12 Rounds

10 weeks of intense training with the end goal of a fight at Clapham Grand on 23rd July

Despite my utter terror, I’ve decided to join

Something I’ve thought about for years is getting back in the ring

I love the team spirit and the camaraderie of fighting. I loved having a goal and something to work towards

But it’s a big commitment. Training for a fight is incredibly tough, both mentally and physically. For the last few years I’ve not had the time or energy to give boxing competitively

I’m not sure what changed. Maybe the fact that our fighters are mostly newbies to the ring and I want to lead by example and take this journey with them

Or it could just be that I got drunk at the Joshua/Klitschko event and told everyone I was going to do it 😂 (I’m pretty brave when full of vodka!)

And that’s my point today. If you’ve got a goal and something you want to achieve – tell everyone about it

For me, it keeps me accountable and means I won’t back out

Following through on what you say you’ll do is really important to me. I guess it comes back to integrity. If I say if going to do something, I’m all in. I hate letting people down

And keeping the promises you make to yourself is massively connected to self esteem. A lot of time this is something we don’t do, then we wonder why we don’t trust ourself. Think about it, do you like or trust someone who continually doesn’t do what they say they will?

So if there’s something you want to achieve, tell everyone you know about it. It will keep you accountable and committed

‘Commitment means staying loyal to what you said you were going to do long after the mood you said it in had left you

Have a great week 😊

ps. If you think you’ve got what it takes to get behind the ropes, we still have a few spaces left to jump onboard the programme

And if you tell people about our fight skool, it will be great marketing for us too 😂
