The Weekly Letter

Every leader has a team. Very few lead themselves.

One letter a week from performance coach Tom Heath. Standards, boundaries, energy and a quieter head, for founders, directors and business owners who look after everyone but themselves.

Who it's for

On paper you're winning.

You run things. A business, a team, a department. People rely on you. In private, you've quietly stopped trusting yourself to do what you said you'd do.

  • 01You know exactly what to do. You're just not doing it.
  • 02Ten out of ten for three weeks, then nothing.
  • 03Team first, clients first, family first. You come last.
  • 04Your head won't switch off at night, so you wake up flat.
  • 05Knackered all the time, with more to give and no idea how.

You don't need more motivation. You need standards that hold on the bad days.

What lands in your inbox

One idea a week. Use it by Monday.

No fluff and no ten step plans. The things I say on my coaching calls every week, written down. Things like:

01

You don't have a time problem

You have a boundaries problem. Every yes is a no to something else.

02

Motivation is overrated

Standards don't need you to feel like it. That's the whole point of them.

03

Ten out of ten is a trap

Seven out of ten every week beats ten out of ten for three. Moderation is a skill.

04

Your evening decides your morning

The day you want starts the night before, not when the alarm goes off.

05

Fewer decisions, not more discipline

The people who look disciplined have usually just decided once.

06

Recovery beats a perfect streak

You will slip. What matters is how fast you steer back.

Who's writing it

I'm Tom. I'm in your corner.

I coach business owners and leaders to lead themselves as well as they lead their teams. Training is the way in.

Most people come to me to lose weight, get fitter or finish an event. They stay for everything else. Boundaries, decisions, a quieter head, and the kind of confidence that comes from keeping promises to yourself. Some have been with me four years.

You'll notice there are no letters after my name. That's on purpose. My clients are the heroes, not me. I've taken the same ideas into rooms too, speaking to sales and financial planning teams about performance.

Strength
Standards
Clarity
Control
Behave your way to success.
