The Book
Written by Neil Fachie MBE, foreword by Sir Chris Hoy, audiobook narrated by Peter Forbes
‘Earn Your Stripes: Gold medal insights for business and life’ outlines the methodology in becoming the best in the world at what you do. By breaking your performance down in to five key areas and providing you with simple to use tools, this method will initiate a real shift in your level of performance and hence success.
The book is available in multiple formats:
If you master these Five Stripes you can achieve champion status. Earning your stripes takes time and effort, but the rewards are worth it.
We start by looking at what drives and motivates you. Understanding this is crucial if you are to achieve your full potential. Drive isn’t everything; if you are heading in the wrong direction, you’ll never reach your intended destination. Make sure it’s the direction you want. Drive and direction are a powerful combination.
Next, we delve into performance, getting the most out of yourself through your working methods and choices. Planning and strategising are crucial, giving you confidence and conviction in your decisions. Most importantly, we look at redefining failure, seeing it as something to seek out and learn from.
There are no self-made winners: alongside every champion stands a team. In this section, we look at how you build a support network designed for success, using experts to optimise your performance. The environment around you will heavily influence how you approach challenges. If you create the right environment, filled with driven, talented people, your chances of achieving incredible things will be multiplied.
To be a champion, a champion mindset is required. Self-doubt, failures and self-sabotage are common: champions find a way to push through. The human brain is an incredibly powerful tool, but it often tries to work against us. Subconsciously, a part of your brain tries to stop you progressing to new levels because it sees change as a threat. This section shows you how to fight back.
The final section deals with performing under extreme pressure. The magnitude of a situation can often sabotage a performance. What if you could use the high-pressure situation to your advantage? This is where true champions excel.

ABOUT NEIL
Neil has represented British Cycling, ParalympicsGB and Team Scotland at multiple World, Paralympic and Commonwealth Games. He has amassed an array of titles and records over a long and illustrious career. In 2013 he was awarded an MBE in the New Year’s Honours List for services to cycling.
Far from being an easy journey, Neil’s successes only followed after a spell of unemployment and depression. It was this low, along with the challenges he faces due to his visual impairment, that gave him the impetus to chase his dream, to compete at the London 2012 Paralympic Games.
Through developing his five step strategy for success, not only did Neil make it to London, he won gold and silver for his country, breaking a world record in the process. While still a full-time athlete, Neil now enjoys sharing his knowledge with others, particularly in the high-paced world of business.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS THINK
I would like to thank you again for the session you took with the team last week in Milton Keynes. Not only are your achievements inspirational but you presented them in an engaging, clear and relevant manner.
Neil had the room on the edge of their seats from the start. We could tell by the reception in the room, and via social media since, that everyone loved hearing Neil’s story and how he manages his mindset prior to, during and after big events.
We had some key messages that we really wanted to deliver to our athlete crop with 11 months to go to the Games. Having coached Neil I knew that his inspiring story would help the athletes understand some of the things they need to do.
