Full interview in the comments!

I had someone say to me once “I don't want someone telling me what to do”. And I thought, “Good. Because that’s exactly what I don’t do! 😊 Despite 15 years as a Physical Training Instructor in the Army, I can’t even get my young boys to eat their vegetables! ===== Anyway, you’re an adult, you don’t want anyone telling you what to do either. That’s good because coaching is not about telling people what to do. My role is not to tell you what to do but to support you to make the best decisions possible and then take the appropriate actions. You’re in charge of your business. ===== What are your thoughts on receiving instructions vs being guided to make the right decisions? ===== To find out more watch this video: https://lnkd.in/eyejkSsF #law #lawyers #lawfirms #lawfirmmanagement #lawfirmstrategy

This post will not make me popular. I know this, but I’m going to post it anyway. At 22 years old, the young man in the shared post has the road freight industry at his feet. He’s excited about his job, and his boss has put a lot of faith in him, which is awesome. He’s clearly worthy of such confidence and faith, which is rare in our industry. In short - he’s a diamond. However, if he doesn’t change his lifestyle, he’s not going to be around to fulfil his ambitions 😢 This is NOT a body shaming post. I’m very concerned for his future but I admit I don’t know what he’s eating; or drinking; or whether he’s exercising or not; or whether he has health conditions that cause him to appear, in the only photo I’ve seen of him, to be very overweight. My only concern is that he appears to be not of great health for a 22 year old. This is an amazing young person who has a wonderful future; the opportunity to have a family and maybe his own transport company. But if he doesn’t look after his health, it will be just a dream. A beautiful, tragic dream that isn’t realised. If we don’t start acting and doing something about the health of drivers in our industry, there won’t be an industry to worry about. I know that Healthy Heads in Trucks & Sheds has done amazing work with bp to offer wonderfully healthy options for drivers; but what happens when they’re not at a bp ? We need to do more. We need to encourage drivers to visit their Doctor every year as an absolute minimum to cover off all the items they should be for a health check. We need drivers to demand healthy options at truck stops, not fried food, regardless of whether it’s a bp or not. We need to promote healthy eating in the same manner as we promote mental health and road safety. Otherwise, people like Nick will become just another statistic of our industry. We need to do better for legends like him 💖
