## Resource

I hear a lot of people talking about the non-negotiables in their lives, usually habits around exercise or sleep or other areas of wellbeing that make a huge difference in their lives. And whilst I am clearly an advocate of having these routines, I don't personally have any 'non-negotiables' with any of them. I was asked what my non-negotiables were in a recent panel discussion at a wellbeing event, and figured why not share my thoughts on the topic here as well :) In this short episode I talk / ramble about: Why I don't have non-negotiables The difference between a STANDARD and a non-negotiable The importance of TOLERANCE Why our habits should SERVE you and not ENSLAVE you Why it's better to be DELAYED with your progress rather than DERAILED If you'd like to connect with me on LinkedIn where I post some of these musings through the week, it would be great to see you over there... https://www.linkedin.com/in/coachgeorgeanderson And if you have a corporate event coming up that you think could benefit from a bit of a boost, drop me a line and find out about my masterclasses and conference keynotes!
