  • #83 Ants Don't Have The Need For Chairs. Be More Ant!

    In this week's episode, whoever invented the chair has a lot to answer for! We weren't designed for a sedentary life and we've forgotten how to move. Also in this episode, Mark opens some brown envelopes, summer storm warnings, our thirst for conflict and is anyone still listening to us?

    "The body will become better at whatever you do, or don’t do. You don’t move? The body will make you better at NOT moving. If you move, your body will allow more movement." — Ido Portal

  • #79 Motivation & Accountability

    What's the difference between motivation and accountability and what's the difference between those who apply it and those that don't? How do we break through the monotony, the apathy and the autocracy to achieve our goals? The answers lie in us and us alone. Oh, and Life Hacks are back!

    ---

    "Yes, that’s right. Sometimes accountability will pretend to be motivation. It’s a sneaky little trick that convinces many of us that to achieve success in our goals, we just need someone else to come and check to make sure we did what we said we would. The ruse works for a while because the accountability does add an element of urgency and excitement, mostly because we don’t want to feel shame or regret when we haven’t followed through. But eventually, the novelty wears off, and we don’t care as much about meeting the approval of others. Then, the gig is up, accountability’s true identity is revealed, and we’re left with the realization that to keep making progress, we have to look away from others and towards ourselves." - Heather Fuselier

    4. #74 A More Meaningful Life Begins With Your Underpants!

      Welcome to episode 74, the second attempt! In true Wabi-sabi style, this pod celebrates the perfectly imperfect by being born out of a realisation that sometimes you just have to stop, breathe, regroup and go again. This episode looks at the overwhelm and how being all-consumed is a point you have to get to in order to see the truth, your truth and nothing but the truth. Plus, a practical and effective way of starting our personal Great Resets as we learn to Build Better for a brighter and more meaningful future.
