I started combat sports years ago because of my underlying fear of being out of control in physical situations. Once I started this, I realised I had faced my biggest fear head on and everything else seemed possible ✅ (despite constantly losing!)
Doing hard things on purpose rewires your belief in yourself. 💪
When you voluntarily face challenge — instead of waiting for life to force it on you — you prove that you can handle discomfort and push past limits.
Each time you do what once felt impossible, your brain updates the mindset:
👉 “I can do hard things.”
That’s where real confidence comes from: from evidence.

I’ve started a new business called Sentinel, so I’ll be changing the name from RJF Behaviour.
A sentinel is someone who stays observant, noticing what’s happening early, understanding patterns, and responding before things escalate. That idea fits the work better than “behaviour” alone.
Sentinel focuses on the ability to understand, act, reflect, and then behave in a way that aligns with who you want to be.
Same work at the core, just a name that fits it better.

Rufaro @sentinelbehaviour really has manifested becoming a part of @_mentalitygroup ✨✨✨
We create our reality and this is proof. ✅
I asked what it is that he is looking forward to on our wellness day hosted on @thebigwoodestate with @the_mind_boxer and @mrs_monica_bird …we have the benefit of hindsight with the footage…..but it’s clear to see!👀💯
What a gift life is and how incredible it can be when people come together and make good things happen!💙🧡🩷
Big shout to @socialbloomstudios_ and @kelly_mac_content_creator for the 📸🎥🤳

Can you guess which South London park we’re at?
We met with our newest recruit, Rufaro — founder of @sentinelbehaviour
At Mentality, we’re always looking for people building tools that help others better understand themselves, and Sentinel is doing exactly that through behavioural insight and self-awareness.
Excited to have Rufaro joining the journey and looking forward to what we’ll build together. 🚀

Nothing better than being part of a good team.
I had the opportunity to support running a mental health wellness day as a trustee for Mentality, alongside people who are doing real, consistent work in a space that matters.
I also had the chance to speak on self-awareness. It’s a simple idea, but one that underpins how we manage ourselves, our decisions and ultimately our mental health.
Days like this are about collective effort, shared intent and creating spaces where conversations that matter can actually happen.
Proud to contribute to work that genuinely makes a difference.

I move with the strong belief that nothing I experience day-to-day can shake my mindset.
Not because I think I’m above it, but because I’ve spent time putting myself in uncomfortable situations, reflecting on it, and doing what I say I’ll do. That’s where self trust comes from, and that’s what builds confidence.
I still get things wrong. I still have many days where it doesn’t go to plan. That’s expected. It’s part of any process that actually moves you forward.
The difference is I don’t see those moments as setbacks. They’re just part of it.
If you want a stronger mindset, start putting yourself in situations that challenge you and be honest about how you respond. That’s where it changes.

Learning to access different sides of myself is a skill I’ve had to develop.
The version of me that leads, the one that supports, the one that protects, the one that plays; they all matter. Different moments require different parts and resisting that only limits me.
This life reminds me that strength isn’t one dimensional. It’s being comfortable enough to show up as what’s needed, when it’s needed.

My takeaway from today’s seminar with my good friend Raf:
• Have a goal—but make it meaningful. For me, it needs to go deeper than just appearance.
• Be present. Watch your thoughts and notice your emotions—awareness is where change starts.
• Be someone who does what they say they will do. It builds trust and creates discipline. Start small and stay consistent.
• Align your goals with your values. Being polite and positive stood out, and for me, also being reliable and leading by example.
• You don’t have to be the best. Failure is part of the process—it builds resilience and helps you grow.
Massive thanks @sentinelbehaviour
I was given a great opportunity to talk to @thehubfit community this morning after a brutal workout led by @bensullivan321
Sometimes you don’t get to the next level alone.
You can have discipline, intent and a clear vision but the right people accelerate everything.
My mate Ben has done that for me more than once. He’s pushed me to places that would be difficult to reach by myself, through his ability to coach, challenge and raise standards without ego.
It’s a reminder to be intentional about who you keep around you. The right people don’t just support you, they challenge you.
Grateful for that and aiming to be that person for others too.
MEMBERS DAY 🔥
April 19th. 8:30AM start.
We’re kicking things off with a BIG team workout 💪
Energy high. Music loud. Everyone in it together.
Then… we slow it down.
Coffee. Catch up. Good people. Great conversations ☕️
And to top it off something special.
We’re bringing in a guest speaker…
Rufaro Fielding from Sentinel Behaviour
A powerful seminar on behaviour & mindset.
How you think. How you act. How you show up.
Because results aren’t just physical… they start in the mind.
This is more than just a workout day.
It’s about connection, growth, and levelling up together.
If you’re a member you don’t want to miss this.
Let’s make it a big one 👊
Self-trust isn’t built in big moments.
It’s built in the small ones you usually overlook.
Every promise you keep to yourself reinforces it.
Every one you break weakens it.
Under pressure, you don’t rise to your intentions.
You fall back on what you’ve proven to yourself you’ll actually do.
