65. Ladies and Gents... Introducing 'The Routine Champion of the World'... Dane Beauchamp!
Manage episode 401243279 series 3340218
This episode is a paradox. We explore possibilities of finding more love for self, life and people with one of the great Australian Muay Thai fighters of our time ... Dane ‘Daddy Kool’ Beauchamp and he certainly lived up to his reputation. Dane in this episode was very 'Kool'. It's so easy to speak about his record in which he won more than 80% of his fights and his achievements in winning Australian and Intercontinental belts are folklore, but his famous victories are not the real story. As Dane himself says, 'It was the dedication to training and routine that earnt the 'kudos'. I reckon most of my training sessions were harder than my fights.'
At one stage of his fight career, Dane was so good that no one in his weight division would fight him. He had to put on 4 kgs of muscle without losing his trademark speed and footwork just to find worthy opponents. Changing the shape of his body was tough dedicated work. He trained every day. His discipline was legendary, and this is where Dane offered us so much.
"Being disciplined is the ultimate self-love."
Wait till you hear what Dane has to say at the 20-minute mark about the importance of routine, discipline, effort, energy life and self-love. It's not for me to elaborate on his message, it's up to you to absorb a wisdom so profound. In addition, the metaphor Dane offered comparing life to the continuous mental battle between throwing your own punches while running the risk of being hit hard by life was powerful. The way he explains why attacking life is so much more important than worrying how hard it will hit you is insightful. His reasoning is so insightful. It sort of reminded me of the old Rocky Balboa clip where 'The Rock' had this to say to his protecting, safe and conservative son ...

It's almost ironic that we could learn so much about love for self and life through a pugilist, but it is Dane's constant dedication to the battle which allows him to understand life so much more than most. The take home pay in this episode will delight you.
