Train with me to become a coach - www.andyramagetraining.com
On Saturday I had one of the best days of my life.
Seriously, if it all grinds to a halt tomorrow, I will go to my next adventure happy.
It all began with a simple question that I have asked myself every day for the last month:
What beliefs do I need to create to make today great?
Sounds too simple, I know.
But stay with me.
The world we experience on the outside reflects our beliefs on the inside.
This incredible wisdom has flowed through the ages.
You can’t control the events that happen to you, but you can control the beliefs you hold about them, which will dictate how you feel.
So you have ultimate control.
After 30 days of asking this question, momentum is starting to build.
I begin each day with a win.
I woke up!
Seriously, not everyone will wake up.
So you get another go.
You don’t have tomorrow or yesterday—only today.
Why waste it?
You can make every day a masterpiece.
On Saturday, I woke up to the most spectacular sunrise.
I asked myself what beliefs would make today great.
As I walked to the gym, the roads were empty, and I could feel the warm morning sun on my face.
I listed off some of my beliefs for the day.
Do not be afraid, everything will be ok
Control what you can control and let go of everything else
Smile
Radiate joy
You have your health
A wonderful family
Don’t sweat the small stuff.
Then I got a text from my wife Tara.
“Shall we go to London for lunch to our new favourite restaurant, Cambino on the Old Brompton Road.”
“YES!”
I added a twist.
We would stay fasted and walk from the city to the restaurant to take in the sights of London.
It took us about 3 hours, with some breaks.
And every bit of it was bliss.
From the Thames to Green Park and the Palace.
I then discovered another great truth:
Hunger is a great sauce!
It was after the first bite that I exclaimed.
“I am going to put a line under today. If this is the last one, I am happy!”
Life is a reflection of the beliefs you hold.
So my take away for you is to begin your day with a question:
“What beliefs do I need to create to make today great?”
Let me know how you get on.

Eleven years ago, I woke in a hotel room in London.It was 8 a.m. on a Thursday.
My head hurt, and my breath was short.
I was hungover.
Again.
I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. I was getting fat. I looked like a haggard 60-year-old.
I was still in my 30s
I didn’t have a problem, nor was there a rock bottom.
But I had had enough.
So I quit. Again.
Having spent the last two years trying, this time it was different.
And this time I cracked it.
As you probably know, it was my life's most crucial moment!
This Thursday, 11 years later.
I woke at 5 am and felt blooming marvelous.
42lbs lighter and a thousand times happier I went to the gym.
Then, I headed to London to coach a 1:1 client I love spending time with.
Next, I met the co-founder of the Equilibrium app and community, helping athletes transition their careers after their playing days end.
The Dryy revolution
After this meeting, I met with my great mate, Matt Pink, to discuss how Dryy will inspire millions to transform their relationship with alcohol.
The 2025 strategy is off the charts!!
Then, home to my girls.
Healthy, fit, and happy, doing what I love every day!
And I owe this life 100% to being alcohol-free!
So, today is a celebration of 11 years on the fun side of the island.
Here are 11 alcohol-free wins I will NEVER give up!
Quality sleep.More fun on the fun side.Optimal mental health and no panic attacks!More joy!Lots of extra time.Better skin.Better relationships.The confidence to leave my career to coach and start new businessesMaximum consistency Ambition to make a differenceMost importantly, I will never give up all the friends I have made and continue to make on this adventure!***
