What4 Story
I’ve chosen to model accountability, show vulnerability and hold myself accountable for my biggest mistake and largest life lesson.
New Years Eve 2004, 20 years ago, I made an incredibly poor decision to get behind the wheel of a car after having too much to drink…
The accident resulted in a fatality, the consequences of which were far reaching and will remain with me for the rest of my life…
In respect for my victim, ensuring his death not be in vain, I found my purpose, or what I call it 'What4' to prevent similar mistakes from happening to others.

The Take4 Model
remembered by the Acronym: L . I . S . T
4 checks before you jump in and do something you may live to regret.
L stands for for Legacy:
Is this something I will look back on and be proud of?
Q. How do you want to be remembered by those you love when you are gone? If you were to die tomorrow, what would be said about you?...
I is for Improvement:
Is this an improvement to my mental & physical health?.....
Following is easy. It takes guts to lead and there is a leader in all of us.
S for Support:
Will family, friends, colleagues support this?...
There is a belief that you are the direct result of the 5 people you spend the most time with, so make them good ones!...
If you want to go fast go alone….. Want to go FAR… go together….
T is for Time!
Is this a good use of my time and effort?
Life is Short! Only here for a very limited time & no currency is greater!... It’s both free and priceless (pause)
4,000 weeks in your life, 1000 months. Not a lot when you put it like that….
Identifying purpose and having clear goals is the best investment you can ever make, to maximise that time.
You call the shots.
