About Us
Get A Grip was created in 2001 in response to our observations that so many people were doing it hard, and were struggling in many areas of their lives.
We wanted to help, and felt the best way to do this was to make what we know publicly available. This way we can help more people all at once, instead of just one at a time.
Along with other skills and experiences, we have great experience in training those in corporate land in improving their communication skills, time management and general personal excellence. We know that what we were teaching our business clients was just as useful and relevant to individuals looking to improve the quality of their lives.
We created Get A Grip so we could focus on helping people find personal solutions they could easily adapt to their own circumstances: mums and dads at home, kids in school, uni or college students, retirees, self employed, the unemployed - all those frustrated with the results they’re getting now and who were prepared to take some action.
Our Commitment To Quality
The Get A Grip Team enjoy working together to bring you the best of everything we can possibly provide.
We constantly strive to deliver exemplary service. The difference we make shows because we care about what we do - we actually really love what we do: serving, helping and providing you with all the tools, techniques and systems you want in order for you to live a life of peace, security, fun and a achieve a sense of accomplishment.

Author & Company Director
The Get a Grip website and, in particular, the Live Your Life program are the results of ideas and information gleaned from hundreds of personal development books, tapes and courses. More importantly, it’s what I’ve tried, still use all the time and know works for me.
Of all the things I have learned, one stands out as the most important: take baby steps.
For many people their problems are so many and varied that simply looking at them is all too much and they retreat back into ‘instant gratification’ habits to make themselves feel better.
Baby steps is about taking things easy - one small step at a time. Don’t try too much at once, it’s not a race. With support, some focus and a kind guiding hand you can truly turn your life around
Phil
Chief Technical Officer
The Get a Grip website is lovingly created and maintained by the most patient man on earth. Phil is brilliant at holding many ideas in his head all at once, and is blessed with Clear Vision. He can always see the big picture, how it all should look at the end.
He is worthy of worship as he takes all my ideas and makes them a reality, looking so good in print and on the web.
We are looking at building him his own shrine, where others can come on bended knee and whisper in awe - ‘That’s amazing.’
He is also is the one against whom all ideas are bounced, and unfailingly gives his honest opinion. Luckily he agrees with most of what I come up with, and we negotiate the rest.
