From Sixth Form to Six Figures!
Joe Mitton, founder of the successful sport and fitness company Mittfit, and former Long Road student, shared his inspiring journey with Business and Sport students this afternoon.
Despite struggling academically, coping with dyslexia, and facing significant health challenges, Joe defied expectations with his drive and personal ambition. After college, unable to go to university, he pursued a career in personal training before quickly moving on to found his own company, Mittfit. He now works with thousands of clients, billionaires, celebrities, and leading businesses around the world.
He highlighted the importance of hard work and determination, emphasising that success is not solely measured by academic performance. He encouraged students to be ambitious, focus on their priorities and avoid distractions.
He emphasised the value of mentoring learning from other professionals in his field, especially those who have been more successful than him.
Joe encouraged Long Road students to absorb knowledge, set ambitious goals, and pursue their dreams, regardless of what others may think. And most of all, he encouraged students to be curious and confident.
