About Me / Story of Mindset for Motivation…
Hey!
I want to start this page slightly differently because I need to address this first before I start talking about myself and my story.
To you, the reader, I’d like to take this opportunity to say thank-you.
I really appreciate that you’re taking the time to explore my website. The time you spend with me matters more than anything else, because I understand that your time is the most valuable gift you could offer.
❗This page is all about why Mindset for Motivation was born, specifically my blog. If you want to find out about my consultancy, click here.
Let’s get started…
I will take this opportunity to introduce myself, explain my story so far, and begin to lay the foundations to build a strong relationship with you. 🙂
This is me:
My name is Corey Dawson, founder of Mindset for Motivation, and full-time conversion consultant dedicated to the personal development niche.
I am British, I have lived in England all of my life and super proud to be part of its heritage.
One of my biggest achievements in life was getting my Physics degree from The University of Nottingham.
I am an adult volunteer with the Royal Air Force Air Cadets (RAFAC), I was a cadet myself at 14-years-old and never left because it’s the greatest organisation in the world to be part of!
One of the greatest privileges I have as a volunteer is watching the development of young people throughout their cadet career, as well as helping them through difficult times in their life.
I’ve always felt that there is so much more to life than society suggests, which is why I got into personal development.
I, therefore, decided to start a blog called Mindset for Motivation in the Summer of 2014…
What’s in it for you?
Before we go much further…
I want to make sure that this website is right for you.
My blog contains only high-quality content for personal development. My posts are designed to encourage you to keep going, even when adversity (and life) is trying to put you on your knees and keep you there.
If you’re not committed to being the best possible version of yourself, which isn’t always easy, then I would say this is not the blog for you.
So, seeing as you’re still here that’s AMAZING!
You’ve just committed to yourself! 💪
You’re part of the tens of millions of people around the world that every day are focusing on becoming better than they were yesterday.
It’s important to remember here, that the only person you should focus on being better than, is yourself.
YOU are the most important person in your life, and I 100% respect that.
This is why I am dedicated to giving you the BEST possible chance of achieving your personal goals. No matter what goals you have, what dreams you have for your future, I am confident I can help you in some way.
You’re interested in your own Personal Development, but not sure if this is the right place for you…?
Would you really ask yourself this question?
If so, then I’m going to tell you something that will definitely shock you…
I created my blog for YOU!
Yes! Seriously…
I’ve struggled with relationships, and I have been devastated when my dream careers shattered into pieces before my eyes.
But I never stopped trying.
I realised my dream is to help others achieve their dreams.
I want to use my experience and emotions to help people make sense of their reality. The techniques I’ve used have driven me to expand my outreach from local, to global.
Now, you’ve made it this far into my ‘about me’ page, and I applaud you for that. Many people wouldn’t bother.
But you did…
You are interested in personal development because you meet my criteria.
You want to be the ideal version of yourself, perhaps an idol, or a role model to those around you.
Most importantly, you’re willing to invest time into YOURSELF.
That makes you an inspiration to others! Including me. 🙂
So if you know, deep down, that you no longer want to treat yourself like a machine and instead respect yourself as a human being with emotions…then this is the place for you!
You are now 100% committed to your Personal Development, so how can I help you?
I’m glad you asked…
At the beginning of 2017, I decided to (metaphorically) attach a 500bhp engine to Mindset for Motivation to drive it to be BIGGER & BETTER than ever before!
More of that later…
When I started my blog back in 2014, I wanted the chance to give back to the world. I wanted to give people hope when they may not have any themselves.
My mission is to provide the world with the means to carry on through the face of adversity via the power of mindset.
I’ll be honest with you, there’s no ‘schedule’ of what I should and shouldn’t post.
I think it’s more important to write from the heart and talk about what’s happening right now.
Sometimes I’ll post a quote, sometimes it could be an article either written by myself, or from a credible source.
Whatever it is, it’s my story.
It’s what I’m going through at that time. I don’t like the idea of posting for the sake of posting. I post from the heart, and I think that’s important.
To you, the reader, it gives you an open window to my life for one moment.
That, is a tremendous privilege.
More than that, I want it to mean something to you one day.
It may not be today, it may not be tomorrow. But one day, when times are tough, all of a sudden something you read on my blog POPS into your head.
It’s happened to me so many times.
Out of nowhere, I think of a quote that I came across at some point, and it was EXACTLY what I needed to hear at that moment.
So when you read through my blog, you see my story.
Then at some point, my story will become your story, and both of us will become connected. I believe that’s quite powerful, don’t you think? How we can be connected because of my blog… that’s unbelievable.
Now, back to what I was saying at the start of this section…
At the beginning of 2017, I decided to expand Mindset for Motivation…
For more information on how to find me on social media, and get access to EVEN MORE exclusive content, you will find everything you need to know at the bottom of this page. 🙂
But before you scroll down, I have more to tell you…
Since then, I have been researching how we can begin to understand our ‘true calling’ in life;
Our ideal career, hobbies, relationships, and perhaps most importantly, how we treat ourselves and if we’re making use of the time we get to ourselves.
When no-one else is around, we are not defined by our names or what other people think of us, we are defined by how we spend the time for ourselves.
I believe that we should spend time being ‘selfish’, not against other people or animals, societies or communities, but to spend time during the day focusing only on goals that immediately benefit us.
That’s when I decided to write my first book:
I talk about the 3 secrets that will help discover your true purpose in life…
- Finding & Using Your Core Values
- Eliminating Limiting Beliefs
- Making Conscious Decisions
Today, I have built my own “tribe” of fans, followers and subscribers which exceeded my expectations, all thanks to this book!
