The Straight-Talking Guide to Creating and Enjoying a Brilliant Life

S.U.M.O. stands for Shut Up, Move On. It’s a phrase to say to
ourselves (and sometimes others) when we are acting or thinking in
a way that is hindering our ability to succeed. It doesn’t
necessarily mean ‘get over it’ or ‘pull yourself together’
(although there may be occasions when both responses are
necessary). ‘Shut Up’ means stop what you’re doing, take time out
to reflect, let go of baggage and beliefs that hinder your
potential. ‘Move On’ means tomorrow can be different from today,
look for new possibilities, don’t just think about it, take action.

There are six S.U.M.O. principles that are designed to help you
create and enjoy a brilliant life. If you are wrestling with life’s
challenges, these principles will help you do so more
successfully.

1. Change Your T-Shirt – take responsibility for your own life
and don’t be a victim.

2. Develop Fruity Thinking – change your thinking and change your
results.

3. Hippo Time is OK – understand how setbacks affect you and how to
recover from them.

4. Remember the Beachball – increase your understanding and
awareness of other people’s world.

5. Learn Latin – change comes through action not intention.
Overcome the tendency to put things off.

6. Ditch Doris Day – create your own future rather than leave it to
chance. Forget the attitude ‘que sera, sera, whatever will be, will
be.’

‘A superb book. It combines honesty, humour and inspiration to
help people move ahead in life.’

–Allan and Barbara Pease, authors of Why Men Don’t Listen and
Women Can’t Read Maps

‘Powerful, simple and effective. A highly engaging and thought
provoking book. Anyone who reads it is sure to look at themselves
and the world differently as a result.’

–Octavius Black and Sebastian Bailey, The Mind Gym

The S.U.M.O. guy is Paul Mc Gee, an international speaker and
author. He has been developing the S.U.M.O. principles over the
last five years.
