Bradley 'Super' Skeete!

Resistance to change is futile. What we deem as steady right now might not be. So, it’s always good to reassess, to learn, and to prepare for what’s next.
Today on The Steven Sulley Study Podcast, we talk to Bradley ‘Super’ Skeete, a professional welterweight boxer about his boxing career and his plans. There are many things that sports teach us – talk about discipline, determination and teamwork among other stuff- but what some athletes aren’t aware of is the need for having to manage your financial life. Bradley has long seen the need for post-career, financial planning. That is why he set up his own business, Super Fit Boxing & Training Business.
Also, he also gives advice for aspiring professional boxers and gives us an update on when he’s going back to the ring. Bradley would like to fight for a European title again. Find out more on these when you tune in.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
There will be times that our emotions will get the best of us. Know how to properly deal with them. You can’t just shove them under the rug or hold it in. talk it to your support group, your family or friends. 
If you’re trying to achieve personal development, career growth, business expansion, or anything, also improve your physical health. Sound decisions and new come naturally if your body and mind is in a health state.
Understand that there’s nothing permanent. Bradley acknowledges the fact that he can’t be in professional boxing for the rest of his life. But know at the end of cycles, there are new beginnings. Bradley is looking forward to more time he can spend with his family and his business.
Financial education is vital for all athletes. It might seem stable since you’re experiencing the peak of your career, but what happens if you suddenly fall off? Prepare for your future. If you feel that you’re not equipped with enough knowledge and skills to secure financial stability, have a mentor and start learning.
Bradley’s advice for aspiring boxers: “Don’t be put off by it. The main thing is going to the gym and doing it. Once you’re in there, it’s enjoyable. I just believe that its hard work and dedication that you have to put in to anything.”

ABOUT THE HOST
The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should focus on a number of key areas to be a well-rounded individual. Success should not be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships. As a person who has made a success in life and also made some cock-ups, I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit of success.
I started from leaving school at 16 with very poor school results to pursue a career in plumbing following the directions of my parents that then lead me to a barrister's chamber and then to a sales floor. From here, I established a foothold in the sales market promoting financial products as well as being a founder of an art agency that has a Soho based art studio.
In addition, I have invested into an urban fashion brand and into a wellness tech company, and my latest addition to the business portfolio is a property company that which creates HMO's in Medway, Kent. The diverse range of industries I find myself in has allowed me to create wealth that enables me to be my own boss so I can pursue my dreams.
As a former boxer and avid sportsman, I find there are similarities between the running of businesses and competing. In my episodes, I will be sharing some of my experiences to explore deeper these connections and how they may bring you success."
