Remember The Mission

Go and pick a Xmas tree they said. It’ll be fun they said. Jesus if there was ever an environment where perfectionism took over, it’s walking through fields of 100’s of Xmas trees ?? just looking for one. And to top it off take the whole family to completely disagree with each others choice ???? We got there in the ?????????? #xmas #xmastree #family #bants

Your family won’t remember your job title, but they’ll remember how you showed up for them. It’s easy to get caught up in the hustle—chasing deadlines, grinding for success, and thinking you’re doing it all for your family. But the truth is, the moments that matter most aren’t found in your inbox or your bank balance. They’re found at the dinner table, during bedtime stories, or simply being present when your loved ones need you. Balance isn’t a luxury—it’s a priority. Ask yourself: Are you showing up as the partner, parent, or role model you want to be? If not, today’s the perfect day to start. #FamilyFirst #LeadYourself #WorkLifeBalance #PurposeDriven #SuccessWithClarity #JamesBoardmanMindset #ShowUpStrong

How My Business Evolved: From Chaos to Mission-Driven Impact Growth isn’t linear—for people or businesses. My journey is living proof. When I started, I was driven by passion, but I lacked structure. I was running bootcamps, dabbling in online coaching, and trying to help men improve their lives, but it wasn’t sustainable. I was working hard, not smart, and spreading myself thin. My time, energy, and focus were scattered, leaving me exhausted and directionless. The turning point came when I realised that what I was doing wasn’t working. My family wasn’t getting the best of me, and the men I wanted to help weren’t getting the results they deserved. I was stuck in a cycle of chaos—busy but not productive, stretched but not effective. I had to make a change. I took a step back and asked myself: ? What kind of man did I want to be? ? What kind of business did I want to run? ? How could I create something that truly helped others without sacrificing my own well-being? This clarity led me to develop the Mission Framework, a system that transformed not only my business but also my life. The framework focuses on six core pillars: 1?? Structure and Routine: Creating consistent habits that provide control and focus. 2?? Time, Energy, and Focus Management: Maximising resources for both personal and professional growth. 3?? Life Mission: Defining a clear purpose and aligning daily actions to achieve it. 4?? Mental Resilience: Building strength to navigate challenges with confidence. 5?? Emotional Connection: Deepening relationships to fuel fulfillment and motivation. 6?? Balanced Growth: Thriving in all areas of life, from work to family. As I implemented these principles, my business transformed. I went from being reactive and chaotic to proactive and intentional. Every decision became rooted in my mission, and the impact extended beyond my professional life. My relationships improved, my energy increased, and I felt truly aligned with my purpose. This framework has evolved over the years, but its core remains the same: helping men not just survive life, but thrive in it. Today, my business isn’t just about making an impact—it’s about leading a movement. A movement of men ready to step up, embrace their potential, and lead their families, businesses, and themselves to new heights. If you’re feeling stuck in chaos or wondering what’s next, know this: evolution requires discomfort, courage, and consistency. But when you commit to growth, the rewards are life-changing. Your career is a reflection of you. When you grow, it grows. Ready to evolve? Let’s get to work.

Seven years ago, I invested ￡5k in someone to help me structure and publish my first book. ?? It was a terrifying decision—I felt sick with anxiety. But deep down, I knew it was the right move. The money wasn’t just an expense—it was an investment in myself, my business, and my brand. And honestly? It’s one of the best business decisions I’ve ever made. (I’ve made plenty of bad ones too—but who hasn’t?) At the time, I had no idea how to start writing a book. I was struggling financially, not yet working online full-time. My bootcamp business was barely scraping by because, truthfully, I’d fallen out of love with it. My partner was expecting, my van needed major repairs costing ￡2k, and I was preparing to run my first 100-mile race. The pressure was immense. But something inside me kept saying, You need to do this. So I did. I made the leap and got the coaching I needed to do it right. Looking back, that decision was monumental. That chapter of my life set the tone for everything that followed. 20,000 have read that book I wouldn’t be where I am now, having created the frameworks in that first book, if I hadn’t pulled the trigger. It’s powerful to reflect on those defining moments—the decisions that shape your future. Your journey hasn’t been linear either. You’ve had twists and turns, challenges and wins. But some of those moments have been pivotal. And here’s the truth: sometimes you have to take a leap of faith to get to the next level. A lot of people wait. They wait for the “right” moment to invest in their future. They wait for the “right” time. But how many of you are waiting until January to get going? There’s still time to achieve more in the next six weeks than most people do in six months. The difference is a state of mind. 99% of people will stay stuck, regret not taking action, and keep waiting. 1% will move forward—and they’ll never look back. If you’re that 1%, I’ve got an incredible offer to work with us through 2024 and 2025 to help you become the man who gets to the next level. DM me with 1%, and I’ll send you the details. #LeadershipMindset #InvestInYourself #BusinessGrowth #PersonalDevelopment #HighPerformanceHabits

What Legacy Will You Leave Behind? Imagine this: You’ve passed away. ?? (Let’s start with a cheerful thought, shall we?) Now ask yourself: What would you want your kids to say about you? How would you want them to remember you—as a father, a role model, and a leader? Here’s the tough question: Are you living up to that standard right now? If the answer is no, then it’s time to make some changes. Because let’s be honest, your kids aren’t going to remember your job title, your salary, or how many hours you put into work. They’ll remember: ? The connection you gave them. ? The lessons you taught them. ? The example you set for how to show up in life. Will they think of you as someone to emulate or someone to avoid becoming? These are the moments that shape your legacy. So, how will you change what’s happening now to be the father and leader they’ll remember with pride? It’s worth thinking about.

Hi, I’m James Boardman [JB] Let me introduce myself. I’m slightly younger than I feel most days … especially when i've been grappling with savages in the morning. I’m a recovering perfectionist and a natural problem-solver … which means I’ve spent too much time trying to “fix” things that didn’t need fixing. I believe in structure and systems—but not at the expense of having fun when i can. I live on the south coast, but my heart belongs to my family and BJJ—the place I go to reset and refocus. I spent years chasing success in my business, thinking that working harder was the answer. Spoiler: it wasn’t. It wasn’t until I started leading myself better that I realised the key to thriving wasn’t in working harder but in working smarter— with clarity, purpose, and balance. That’s when I discovered my mission. Now, I spend my days: ?? Helping businessmen create structure in their chaos ?? Guiding them to lead with purpose in work and life ?? Showing them how to build success without sacrificing what matters most I’ve written 2 best books, had over 15,000 men come through our range of coaching programmes both free and paid, and hosted numerous live face to face sessions helping others step into their potential. I'm a former Royal Marine Commando, sniper and physical training instructor, I'm a father to 4 and husband to my best mate Jemima. My mission now is being passionate about seeing men and business owners thrive—not just professionally but personally, too. That’s a little about me. what drives you, challenges you, or inspires you to show up every day?
