Bedtime Routines of Successful People | Secrets of Iceland’s Stunning Euro 2016 | I Voted For Brexit & Regret It – Legends Report

By Jairaj Singh, Associate Partner, Lighthouse International

As we see time and time again, legends develop a level discipline to succeed that is above most ordinary people. We’ve explored the importance of evening routines before but if there is one thing we need to do to learn, it’s called repetition. Author & Coach Tony Robbins calls repetition “The mother of all learning.” So check out this article published yesterday on Entrepreneur.com about what Arianna Huffington, Mariah Carey, Barack Obama and Bill Gates do before bed. Use it to inspire your own evening routine this week…

“I read an hour almost every night,” Bill Gates told The Seattle Times. “It’s part of falling asleep.”

Can you imagine a country that receives a huge amount of funding from football and invests it in grassroots pitches for kids? Can you imagine what might happen if you offered football coach training to the entire population and one in every 800 people took it up? Can you imagine a country with the population of the London Borough of Lewisham creating a youth system for football that is beginning to rival the best in the world?

Well if you can, you’ve imagined Iceland. Today they will take on one of the world powers of football at Euro 2016, they will face an England team full of superstars and millionaires. This tiny Nordic country teaches us all that if you invest in the right areas, educate and train enough good people and provide access to opportunities for all, you can achieve miracles. So no matter where you are in your life, never doubt you can achieve great things.

Steven Lennon, who used to play for Scottish club Rangers but now plys his trade in Iceland told The Guardian:

Could British football change, learn, adapt, pick apart the strands? Lennon has a bit of a laugh at this. “I don’t know. Maybe we’re just more greedy about it. There [are] people back in the UK taking massive salaries for the same job they do in Iceland. People in those FAs, they’ve got massive egos and they want those high salaries. Whereas here they’re all about developing the game. So I don’t know. You’d have to see massive change. Maybe not just in football.”

Why I Regret Voting For Brexit

You’d be forgiven for getting a bit tired of the wall-to-wall coverage of the UK’s decision to leave the EU last week 🙂 – but what it reveals is so much more than a simple political vote. What it revealed to the public and politicians alike is where people really are, how they really feel and that the status quo needs to change. It may or may not be a bad thing that the UK leaves the EU, can anyone really know in the long-term? What is important is reflecting on what this means for society, for people taking control of their own lives and for their futures.

The Telegraph yesterday published a piece from a courageous person who admitted she made a mistake with her vote. How many of us would come out in public and say we are “ashamed of our mistakes”? We all make them right? No one has a right to get self-righteous about who was “right” and who was “wrong” in this campaign. Yes there may be nut-jobs on either side of the debate, but at the heart of it are good and decent ordinary people who want to build a better life for themselves and voted because they had good intentions. Let’s remember that while we absorb the drama that may ensue. True legends are balanced, they look at both sides before opening their mouth – we would all do well to remember that in every area of our lives…
