Liam James Collins: From The Dark Knight Rises to Building a Multi Million Pound Business

Yeah, completely.

Where did that come from? It's really funny with that one because I've always had, and again, I must admit, I feel like, This is one part of my personality that I am very cautious around sharing.

But fuck it, I'll share it anyway.

Make it exclusive here.

You know what? I think this is going to be an exclusive because I've always been scared to share this because I feel like it makes me unrelatable.

And that's not a good position for me to be in, if I'm being completely honest, because being relatable is like one of my things.

People are like, I want to do what Liam does.

He's like a normal guy, right? Which I am.

But one thing that I feel and I've noticed and I recognize that I've had something about me that's different to a lot of other people is is from as early as I can remember, I have just had absolute belief in myself to the point where my friends would even comment.

I'll give you a great example.

Sports in school, right? If I'm being completely honest, I was like average at every sport.

I was like okay at all of them.

But I was convinced, and I to this day still am convinced, that if I applied myself to any one of them, I would be at world level.

And my friends were like, how and why would you believe that about yourself? Where does that come from? There's no evidence for that.

And I don't know.

I don't know what, there isn't any evidence for it.

And I don't know where it comes from.

But it's one thing I have had that is unfalting self-belief.

I still to this day have the belief that if I apply myself to any one thing, I have the potential and even the likelihood to become world-class or whatever it is I focus on.

Don't know where that comes from.

This is going to sound like a complete contradiction because I've had times in my life where I have been absolutely on my arse, literally laid there in the fetal position, having panic attacks, struggling to leave my house.

But where it's going to sound a bit strange is is even then I still had this belief deep down that I was capable of being world-class.

I didn't even necessarily know what I was going to be world-class in.

Yes.

It's really, really strange.

Yeah, completely.
