About our Business

"My mission is to unleash effortless abundance worldwide, by helping people realise that abundance is their natural state, and that their `limitations' are only in their mind."

History
I was heavily involved in Rotaract aged 18-33 and became Club President three times and District Chairman of two out of the three districts in Scotland.

I was a Financial Adviser for 17 years and I successfully ran my own Independent Financial Advisory practice in Edinburgh until I decided that my heart was no longer in it, so I closed it during 2006 and instead I chose to concentrate on my new project called "Inspire Scotland 2006".
Unfortunately I cocked up my finances and I went from one extreme to another. In an effort to clear my feet financially, I have since lost my nice house and car, girlfriend and all of my (fairly substantial) savings.
At times like this, it's hard to remind yourself that 99% of the project was very successful and I did achieve my goal of touching and positvely influencing many lives.

During my time as an IFA, I was Area Chairman of the legal representative body (then called LIA, standing for "Life Insurance Association") and I became a member of MDRT (Million Dollar Round Table). Apparently only 4% of Financial Advisers in the world are entitled to join MDRT so I was delighted to participate and I met some incredible people including Sir Roger Bannister (world's first 4 minute-mile), Christopher Reeve (Superman), Michael Jordan (and many others).

Public-Speaking
I can talk authoritatively on many subjects such as; Property, Investments, Motivation, Inspiration, NLP, Hypnotherapy, even Budgie-breeding and my favourite is "limited-belief-busting".

I have been involved in Toastmasters and Public-Speaking Associations and I have spoken on a number of platforms including; Millionaire-Minds, Rotary Leadership Challenges, Time-Mastery, Entrepreneur-training
