Are you one of those people who think that fulfilling a dream is a fantasy and that you have to put your feet firmly in the real world. What is a dream? It is a goal without a time frame. Obviously the unicorn as a pet is out of the question, but all those dreams that are based around the life lived should be possible.
They are not going to magically appear, it takes time. Time to plan the way, learn the right skills and to spend meeting the right (and wrong) people alongside a lot of other things. Successful people don’t get that way overnight, whatever X-Factor may have implied. Successful people don’t get that way alone, they find the right support team and advisors.
Pip Thomas is a support team and advisor rolled into one. She works alongside people to help them find the tools they already possess to achieve their goals, freedom and sense of empowerment. This, with the commercial experience of someone who set up 3 companies, sold 2 (1 of which she runs as MD) and is on the boards of others. Currently she is busy being the MD of N-Vest and accredited NLP trainer at Edge NLP
Kate Warr, KEW Marketing, says it brilliantly:
“Pip is one of those people that seems to have super powers but doesn’t brag about it! I did a course with Pip last year and not only did she provide us with knowledge and information, she was inspiring, positive and created a great atmosphere in the room. I then found out that her training company was just one of the things she did, plus a lot more. It made me realise that if you put your mind to something, you can achieve anything. She’s an inspiration to everyone :-).”
What unites all of Pip’s business interests is her focus on engendering excellence in others. She uses her ability to understand with her extensive people development experience to help businesses and individuals achieve their goals. I read recently that the best tips she can give to people are
- Live in the moment
- Empower yourself to take control of situations
- If you believe in yourself, you can achieve anything you set out to do
- Work hard on your personal relationships
We are especially taken with the tip to work hard on your personal relationships and cannot agree more that this is important to anyone wanting to reach their goals. You can’t do it alone, find people who you can help and who can help you.
And to top it all off, I think that the live in the moment and believe in yourself tips can be distilled into a practical application that Pip uses here
She has completed a sky dive, not letting fear get in her way, she practices what she preaches!
What are you going to start working towards today?
Have fun!
