Dream big, live your life and always embrace the grind... It is the place where you reveal who you really are! Sonny Kalar MSc |
Welcome and I hope I find you in the very best of health.
Working/Coaching
I have been working full time for over 29 years now in my profession and at the same time, I have also been studying for a Masters Degree in Risk and Crisis management and I am pleased to say that I have now successfully passed. I am hoping that this additional qualification will prove invaluable to me in my future career choices when I retire. Whilst my full time job keeps me busy enough, I am extremely passionate about my coaching business as you will see if you book me for a session.
My thirst for coaching is borne from a desire to pass on my knowledge and experience whilst helping others to succeed in their lives and help them achieve their goals and the litmus test for me on a personal level has been surviving a life threatening illness where I survived double pneumonia, severe blood poisoning, lung pleurisy, MRSA, multiple-organ failure, type 2 respiratory failure, CRP levels at 587 with anything over 200 considered fatal and this was all at the same time in 1 brutal and painful sitting for 5 tumultuous weeks in hospital where I was even put in a side room to die and you get the gist that things were tricky.
The doctors told me that it was a miracle that I survived and that no-one with the illnesses that I had along with CRP levels that high gets out alive and with the doctors also telling me that it was years of playing high level sports (squash) that saved my life as my heart refused to give out along with my absolute refusal to throw the towel in no matter how precarious things had become, I truly felt blessed that my indomitable fighting spirit never let me down.
I had dug deep mentally and despite losing 3 stones, being on full oxygen and not having eaten for weeks I nevertheless fought back with every vestige of strength and mental fortitude I could muster and it worked. The doctors remained incredulous with my survival and later gave me a printout of my 587 CRP scores for posterity and a badge of purpose as I moved forward with my life and I am happy I can hit a squash ball again, still compete with my kids and most importanlty maintain good health.
This and other such experiences have taught me that nothing is certain in life and it is not what happens to you but what you do about it that defines you and my desiderata below exemplifies my thoughts sublimely;
Live your life and when it is all said and done, have the knowledge that YOU gave it everything you had with full-fat passion, true dedication, burning desire and a bruised up, worn out heart that was honourable until the end.
Always be an amazing friend - the very best you can get and live your life with total commitment.
Stay prepared and seek out opportunities, take the risks, develop your character and build the memories.
Keep nourishing your mind with knowledge, understand the wonder of nutrition, learn breathing exercises and travel to every far-flung corner of the world.
Make sure you always wear your heart on your sleeve, speak your mind, stand firm in your beliefs, live with a good moral compass and never show any fear.
Do your very best to stay positive and don't dwell on the past too long as relationships, love, friends, work, position, money and emotions will all ebb and flow, so learn to adapt and evolve when it changes as nothing lasts forever, so live it up, laugh it off, avoid the drama, take the chances and never have any regrets because at one point everything you ever did was exactly what you wanted.
Finally as depicted in my life mantra;
No matter how hard things are!
How tough your opponent is!
How much it hurts!
You are never out of the fight - So never give up!

Something different
Gameshows I managed to eke my way through gruelling auditions to make it on to several Gameshows including; the world famous Total Wipeout where we filmed in Argentina in a once in a lifetime trip, Fortune with Davina McCall, Exit List with Matt Allwright & the New Blockbusters with Simon Mayo where I WON the 1st ever Gold Run with 1 second to spare - PHEW! What unforgettable memories! |
