BEST MOMENTS

‘Be true to yourself’

‘You don’t have to prove to anyone else what you do for others’

‘Once you go out of your comfort zone and you achieve, that’s when you grow as a person’

‘I'm not the most skilfully blessed person but I am one of the hardest working people’

‘You don’t want to be told how good you are you want to be told how you can get better’

‘I get nervous because I care about what I do’

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• I am very competitive, whatever sport I was good at; I would have done, rugby was something I was good at and as a young competitor, I was able to see that I was good compared to others.

• My ambition as a teenager was to be the Captain of Wales to play for the Lions from then on everything focused on getting to that point.

• Sacrifice, determination and mindset brought me the No7 jersey, representing that I was the best flanker in the country.

• If you are defined by your work then when you retire, especially for sportsmen who are usually still young the loss can be enormous, It is about ‘who are you?’

• Rugby was very tough as a career and so I wanted to pursue things that I enjoyed when I retired.

• I achieved what I set out to achieve and it’s nice to be nice and just a good guy.
