Daily Inspiration: Meet Dion Harris

Today we’d like to introduce you to Dion Harris. 

Hi Dion, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstories.
I’m a professional bodybuilder and fitness coach. I actually started when I had suffered an injury that limited me to play certain sport’s and through physical therapy rehab, I found the passion that I wanted to help individuals attain a better lifestyle through my experience as guidance to assist others which also led to competing in bodybuilding when certain sports were limited. Growing up my father and cousin had a huge impact on me to workout but never had the courage until I had an injury 

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Nothing is never easy in life. Where there is no struggle, there is no strength. From dealing with injuries, death of a sibling, and maintaining priorities and obligations there was always a challenge. I just had to have faith and pray to GOD daily to get me through and strengthen me mentally, physically, and spiritually. Be ready to receive when GOD blesses you and see that you’re working diligently towards your faith. You must have consistency in order to seek perseverance. 

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
My career has mostly been in the fitness industry. I specialize in challenging and motivating by making everyone better than before they started mentally, physically, and spiritually. I work with the Youth, senior citizens, and school for blind as a specialty training as well. I’m just so proud, grateful, and blessed that I have the ability to work and share my expertise for all aspects and levels of individuals

Any advice for finding a mentor or networking in general?
When finding a mentor find someone or company who a good reputation and personality who has a history of success and have satisfied customers or clients that will definitely refer others to your services. Everyone has different methods when it comes to business and especially in the fitness industry, so it’s all about who will cater to your goals and do the proper consultation and assessment to better design your program because everyone can’t do the same program depending on health and physical background.
