While I have not always been great at it, I realised a number of years ago the benefits of giving.
Not only does it help others, it is great for my energy, mental health and overall self-worth. I am passionate about two charities:
The SAS Resources Trust.
Sadly in 1996, while serving in the SAS a terrible tragedy occurred outside of Townsville just after sunset on the 12th of June. 15 of Australia's finest soldiers and three Blackhawk aircrew died when two helicopters collided. While it was one of the saddest things to ever happen to my 'family' something great came in the aftermath, thanks to the generosity of many great Australians. The SAS Resources Trust was established to help look after the families of fallen and seriously wounded SAS soldiers and has provided housing and education assistance to those who lost partners and fathers. I am in awe of the work of the trust and seek to do my bit to help raise funds when I can.
Tour de Cure.
I always thought I had been lucky not to have had a significant cancer story in my life. But slowly, it started to enter my life. My mother, uncles, and then more recently, a respected mate, a client, a sister of a mate…and I realized talking to people that I needed to do my bit. Tour de Cure (TDC) is a great Australian charity that funds Cancer research. I have participated in the last two annual Signature Tour' bike rides that have together raised $6m for TDC. The rides are tough, painful and training to ride 1400km over 8-9 days requires a lot of time away from family and work. But as my fellow riders say, it is a small sacrifice compared to the suffering that others with Cancer endure. I really love doing my bit for this wonderful charity…because I can.
Reg is passionate about his family and has chosen to work part time to allow me to devote time to them.
For many years, my wife had to play 'second fiddle' to my career. A few years ago, she told me that she wanted to take the lead and flourish in her career. Although it was hard to step back from career success, when I realized that if I switched my mindset, it was all about supporting her and our family. I now get to take my last school aged daughter to and from school and her sport, cook (not very well), clean (even worse), manage the family admin, and look after the pets! I am not the perfect husband or father, but I try.
I also find that the time that I do get to spend with clients is better because I can focus on a less busy schedule. I am a very lucky man.

.@Channel7 and @BigBrotherAU should immediately cancel the arrangement to have Katie Hopkins appear on TV in front of Australian families.
And @ScottMorrisonMP @karenandrewsmp should cancel her visa and send her on the next plane out of Australia #auspol
