Always a Little Further is a motivational guide that distils hard-won lessons into practical, life-changing advice, inspired by the many interactions Billy has with people who ask what it means to lead, and what it takes.

Always a Little Further harnesses clear life lessons from Billy’s career – on the front line, and in front of, as well as behind, the camera, not to mention developing street smarts in his early years - showing how small, intentional actions can lay the groundwork for life-changing breakthroughs. Told in Billy’s unique style, blending toughness with compassion, it will present a powerful message of self-acceptance, self-discipline, and sustainable ambition.

A call to action for anyone ready to reclaim their potential – as Billy says, motivation needs to be grown like a muscle! Always a Little Further will teach readers to see success at life like an SAS mission – teaching adaption, flexibility and confidence in decision making.
