Why do we talk about change so much but rarely do whats required?Why is it such a big topic for so many people?I talk to a lot of people about their goals. Deeper than just writing it down. Really stripping it back. But once its stripped back it shocks a lot of people just how much work is involved and how much sacrifice is required. And Sacrifice requires change. It requires you either growing into a new more fulfilling habit that drives you towards what you need instead of what you want. Or just plain and simple means you break an existing habit. Like drinking. Smoking. Bad eating. Drug use etc. So why is it then that people take that initial step to set goals but when they strip them back and get the slap in the face but so few push on. Or the ones that do don’t pursue with the course towards what is ultimately good for them?I cover all this in Episode 10. Hope you enjoy it. Peace.

S2 - EPS 10: Why we don’t change 

Before you set out on any endeavour, especially business related please have a clear understanding of your why. Don’t confuse achievement and success. They aren’t the same. Achievement is measurable, it’s tangible, it’s mile stones and a tick list. Success is how you feel. It’s fulfilment and it’s directly related to your why. Without a clear understanding of your why you’re in danger of getting caught up in the what and the how of your business. But that doesn’t inspire people. It’s important you know it from the outset but even more important to not lose sight of it as you grow. Especially as you become more successful. Trust me I speak from personal experience here. I really hope you enjoy this episode. Please leave your comments and feedback. Nothing but love people.

S2: EP9 - Knowing your why 

S2 eps8 Very off the cuff episode this but I wanted to record this in the moment to share what I was feeling at the time and the process I am currently going through to get me through a tough spot. Having a strong mindset isn’t about never feeling weak, sad or vulnerable, we aren’t robots. It’s about spotting when you perhaps need to double down on your efforts to get yourself back on track. Hopefully there is inspiration in this quick episode for you if you’re experiencing something similar right now. If you are please reach out. 🙏🏼

S2: EPS8 - What to do when things get tough. 

Everything starts with a thought. We are surrounded by original thoughts. Everything you can now see in your current reality starter as an original thought in someone’s mind. And was brought into reality by targeted action. I want you all to take part in a very useful and fun experiment for 4 weeks. Start writing down your ideas every day. Aim for at least 15. Trust me on this one. It’s an incredibly powerful process to go through. It breeds creativity within you and also creates productivity. On the right tasks. They don’t all have to be home runs. That’s not the point. I just want you to go through the process. No matter how small or dump they might seem. Take a listen to the Episode and I’ll explain this in more detail. You won’t regret it

S2 #04 - Are you willing to go broke to be rich. 

S2 #03 I’ve seen complacency kill just as many dreams once goals have been met as laziness has killed off newbies when things get tough in the early days.For me hitting a goal doesn’t mean I’m done. Far from it. It’s an opportunity to refine that goal and push on. Either through expansion or diversification. And those goals you’re chasing will also come with new levels of stress that need managing and new problems you’re yet to deal with. You have to be constantly adjusting your approach and adapting to what’s happening around you. Stay hungry people. Peace.

Taking massive action This isn’t about being a busy fool. This is about setting goals (realistic or otherwise) and being able to reverse engineer those goals back to the present day. Once you’ve done that you then should start looking at what your current daily activity looks like and if that marrys up anywhere close to getting you towards your goals. So unless you’re monitoring your data (yes we all have data) and your daily activity you’re just stumbling into this blind. Where you’re at right now is a direct result of the decisions you’ve made. If your goals require a different version ofYou then the big question is...are you willing to make the necessary sacrifices required to get you to your goals? Over to you people. Enjoy the episode.

S2: #02 - Taking Massive Action

This is a huge topic for me and something that I am incredibly passionate about. A day spent without helping someone is a day wasted. We all have the power and the ability within us to help others but so many people don’t. Either out of laziness, fear they aren’t qualified to or simply because society has conditioned them to believe they shouldn’t interfere in people’s business.I position myself as a problem solved. Always have and always will. I want the stuff that’s difficult and that nobody else wants as I’m incredibly confident I’ll be able to find a solution. The ability to give with wanting to receive is a calling and rare quality. You need to remove the ‘Whats in it for me’ mentality and just start looking for opportunities to help.Because the universe is always watching...and it will deliver back on to you you 10 fold that which you gave out. So keep an eye on what you put out...as it works for good and evil alike. Enjoy the episode folks. Peace.

#21 - An interview with Lucy Ingram of Ride property

This episode is my first after my Thyroid Cancer Surgery (6 days ago at the time of recording this) and I’m going to say possibly my best yet. My best in terms of where my mindset is personally and the message I deliver within. I don’t say this to be cocky. I say this to be confident. Because I have every reason to be sitting back on my arse procrastinating right now but as you’ll hear from this episode that does not sit well with me. You don’t need motivation, you need discipline. But if this episode doesn’t put a fire in your belly nothing will. Thanks for listening guys. Nothing but love.

#18 Good Habits In this episode I get into the importance of building good habits. And how they can not only prepare you for the success you’re chasing but also for the adversity that is likely to come along the way. Good habits require discipline and this builds a strong mindset. They are all interlinked. So for those of you struggling with mindset, just work on building better habits and your mind will deliver. ‘Prey that success doesn’t come to you before you’re ready to receive it’

Had a huge break from my podcast but no excuses and I’m straight back into it here with some inspiration for those of you chasing big goals. This episode is me sharing my journey over the last 12+ months of exactly what is possible to achieve if you switch off all distractions, focus on your goals and show up every day and put in the reps. You are worthy of all of your goals, the question is do you want them bad enough. I mean really!! Massive change doesn’t come without sacrifice. If you keep doing what you’ve done you’ll get what you’ve always got. Take a listen and hope you take some inspiration from it. Peace.

Win & Tonic (Trailer)

Every day we are faced with an endless barrage of decisions we have to make. Some of them big...most of the small. You have to train your brain to recognise these questions and make sure you’re always striving to make the right decision. Make every decision a win or success and ultimately the day, weeks, months and years will also be a success. As with most things it isn’t easy. It might mean you saying to a drink with the boys and going for a run instead. Or missing your favourite TV show to watch a webinar. Listening to an audiobook on a long drive instead of the radio. You see my point. The decisions to make the changes you need are all around us every day. Try it for a week. Or better yet a month and report back with the difference. I am genuinely curious to see how it effects you for the better. Peace.
