I'm Greg Bilney.

My passion is empowering people to achieve their goals to become the best version of themselves by utilizing goal oriented, solution focused, effective methods for creating lasting change.

Personally, I have a broad life knowledge base.

​

Since I was a child I was very musical and over my life I have mastered several musical instruments and have for many years had a semi-professional career as a performing and recording musician. I have also booked and promoted music events. I continue to learn and play music.

​

I am a father of three adult children and grandfather of two. My family, like most families, has had plenty of highs and lows. Over time the low points tend to fade away while the high point remain and gain strength every day. My family life and particularly parent hood and then becoming a grand parent has provided me with some of the greatest experiences of my life and a wealth of knowledge to draw from.

Over my business career I have worked for both small family businesses and multi-national companies, as well as running several of my own successful ventures. I have had many jobs and several big career changes. I have supervised managed, apprenticed or mentored many people over the years.

After leaving school I worked in a fruit & veg store while I took a few courses and than became a sign-writer/painter. I learned my trade and after working for a few different companies then became self-employed at 22 years old. I worked in my own successful business for 10 years at which point I made a huge shift into newspaper and online sales and marketing for the worlds largest news media corporation. From there I progressed further into other sales roles in advertising and then made a shift back to the construction industry as a Business Development Manager for one of Australia's leading maintenance companies. 

I ended up working for myself again in Construction & Maintenance, where after a short time I came to the realization "...this is no longer a passion and I now choose to follow a new path, one of passion & freedom instead of just meeting deadlines and chasing a dollar"

...here I am today living my passions in my work life.

Having worked across a number of different industries from construction, sales and marketing, media and advertising covering many roles including grass roots laborer and trades-person to mid and upper level management and leadership. 

After a serious car accident in 2003 I suffered debilitating injury and associated pain and then spiraled into a personal and professional collapse and when I finally bottoming out I eventually found my way by learning from self-help courses. That started me on a journey of discovery of the potential that I have and that we all have within us to own our lives and control our destiny.

Over many years I have managed to fix many my own problems and bad habits including: smoking, drinking too much alcohol, over-eating, procrastination, fear and anxiety, financial problems and one other thing for which is always a work in progress - sustained weight-loss. 

The techniques I used to improve myself and my situation have now become one of my life’s greatest passions. I'm not trying to re-invent the wheel - I believe there are time tested methods and practices out there that can be utilized to suit the individual to give immediate results that last a life time..

After many years of trail and error on myself I now have a very solid understanding of the best ways to achieve personal breakthroughs and to help you finally become the person you always should have been.

Another of my life’s passions are the Martial Arts. Something I took up at the age of 41. I currently hold the rank as a first-degree black belt and head instructor of my own dojo in the MBS Freestyle Martial Arts system. Martial Arts training has become a very important part of my life.

With regards to my training I used my knowledge of NLP to make huge changes in my life and to facilitate a high level of performance  that saw me reach the rank of black belt within only two years and nine months, a feat that I am tremendously proud of as I cut no corners, in fact I did more that was required of me.

I also used the new found power within to finish a half marathon, something I have now done 4 times to date and I have further intentions to complete a full marathon in the near future.

As a martial arts instructor I coach both children and adults and know the strategies required to achieve personal breakthroughs or for success across any discipline.

My accomplishments in business and the martial arts are due to overcoming limitations, bending to change, always pushing forwards and most importantly learning that through our adversities we begin in developing an 'iron will' a trait that is crucial to higher level achievement in all areas of life.

Having learned of Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) during my time in sales and marketing I began to developed a keen interest in the many ways one could apply these principles and techniques in business and further, and of particular interest to myself, to better one’s self personally.

I have studied many books and several courses on the subject and I am now a certified NLP Practitioner.

My interest studies and works with NLP, Hypnosis and other methods of self-transformation led me to EFT tapping techniques, of which I saw a demonstration on television that was carried out on a rather skeptical neurosurgeon, after a single tapping session he reported his lower back pain was gone, and was convinced that it had worked for him.

I was still a skeptic but there was an element of truth that I understood from knowledge previously gained therefore I was willing to try it to dispel any doubt of its validity.

I was intrigued and wanted to know more and chose to take several courses in study on the subject and have now been certified first as EFT / TFT Tapping Master Practitioner and have found using these techniques very beneficial to accompany existing treatments or as a standalone treatment for many different conditions issues and ailments.

I now know this: when you practice the EFT or TFT systems changes occur in your physical being. If you had a headache, the headache will reduce or will be completely gone; if you are having trouble sleeping, you'll sleep like a baby; if you have un-resolved issues from the past then you will learn to feel free and unburdened. 

I have learned to combine the EFT / TFT with NLP for powerful lasting results.

For myself, continued learning and sharing of knowledge in order to help people find their best life is my motivator; it is one of the things in my life where I find myself feeling extremely fulfilled, grateful and truly happy.
