I became intensely interested in personal development whilst striving to become a professional golfer in the mid 1980's. I achieved my dream of becoming a professional golfer in 1989 when the state governing body awarded me an invitation to participate in tournaments as a fully fledged professional golfer even though I was still yet to complete my three year traineeship. As Napoleon Hill has said in his famous book "Think and Grow Rich", 'What the mind of man can conceive and believe, he can achieve'. he was right I had achieved my goal eighteen months earlier than expected. During this time and during my playing career I devoured scores and scores of personal development books, worked intensively with a very successful sports psychologist and mixed with some of the biggest names in professional golf at that time. Without hesitation I applied and perfected strategies into my life and professional golfing career and I competed full time on the professional golf tour for almost four years, the highlight being invited to compete in the Australian Masters in 1993. Although my playing career was becoming more and more successful, true happiness seemed to be alluding me. "Why am I not happy?" I kept asking myself. "All the experts say that if I follow my dreams without giving up when I achieved my dreams I will be ecstatically happy". But yet I wasn't.... Nearly ten years of 'personal development' and I was playing professional golf competing against Greg Norman and the like i.e. "living my dream", but yet something was missing. In 1993 I decided to discontinue my career as a professional golfer to the dismay of my family and friends and began my 'leave no stone unturned' search for what had been alluding me up to that point....true Happiness! Since 1993, I have been researching what makes happy lives and applying the 'theories' to my own life as a kind of human 'guinea pig' as well as observing 000's of people around the world. During this time I coached golf for twelve years in Australia and Europe and have had five years experience in the corporate world consulting on golf course developments and international recruitment. Over the past sixteen years I have also assisted people with very personal issues such as incest, sexual abuse, sexual orientation, depression and anxiety. In my search for happiness I have experienced the highs of pure ecstasy (no, not the drug ;-)) and spontaneous extended periods of pure bliss following intense spiritual training and lengthy periods of meditation. It was a natural progression that I would develop Rohan James.com as I have an enourmous passion for assisting others to become all they can be and nothing makes me happier to know that some else's life has been enhanced through the information that I can pass on through this medium. The information provided on Rohan James.com is a combination of my own study as well as my personal experiences of: • the lows of depression
• experienced altered and expanded states of consciousness while
• Professional Golf Coaching I now live a truly abundant, inspired and peaceful life as a result of my relentless study, trial and error and never give in attitude which of course is also balanced with a sense of fun, playfulness and definitely not taking myself too seriously. I have developed Rohan James.com as a tool for sharing my knowledge and ongoing growth with you. And by doing so I sincerely hope that my site can help to positively influence your life. Have Fun!
