    I dont know who Tony Robbins is?

    Here's your first bit of Tony Robbins. It's all about the momentum created by making one decision to take action.
    Perhaps we should challenge ourselves to some charity mountain hike or something next year? raise some money for something worthwhile....

    Make the decison to set yourself the target of organising and taking part in a charity hike by say, September.

    Then tommorow, make the decision to investigate locations and do something about it.

    Then, on Tuesday, make the decision to pick a charity and call them to let them know your plans and ask for their help in arranging it and setting a target.

    Then, the day after make the decision to contact every mortgage adviser you know to invite them to take part and follow them up.

    Result, you get a target, get fit and do something good - rather than just talking about it and asking a bunch of fat men sat watching lost if they fancy it.

    We'll do something strenous for charity. it will mean I have to get really fit and lose some weight so obviously there's a benefit for me but I think it would be a really good bonding exercise, and good for us all.

    Like a MortgageMamma, mm,marathon, maybe????

    Where's my trainers?

    Ah right I get it. Thats something I would do in the space on one day lol

    when I get something into my head I DO IT. How about a charity hike by us brokers then? we could have tents and things and perhaps do it over a few days? Come on michael, say you will be the first to join me?

    I have raised over £10K for charity in the last 12 months and another £14K form the two years' previously.

    I organise charity events every month of the year, even through my being ill.

    Can't look at your feet either, hands won't allow me to do any of that work any more - sorry!

    You don't half get yourself in the sh*t.

    Can you ride a bike?

    No bikes for me. Fractured spine aged 19 in an off track mountain biking tourney never been on one since. Hiking would be really good though

    Easy enough for those who can't do intense exercise and good for the soul
