KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Just because things aren’t always easy it doesn’t mean that we should not accept them or not want them. It doesn’t mean that it’s a bad thing to experience this. Why? Because this is the human experience. We are souls in mind and body. So, for us to simply say “as a soul, I don’t wish to experience what the mind and body does” is a practical impossibility because whether you like it or not you’re in this mind and body
  • A lot of spiritual people will tell you to always be positive and affirm. Don’t cry about your pet dying, they had a great life with you, you shared great memories with them, they’re not in pet heaven and they’re no longer in pain. To me this is absolute nonsense. You should feel those emotions, a sense of loss, why shouldn’t you?
  • I was asked recently on a podcast: What would I tell my 10-year-old self? My answer was to learn to direct my emotions. If you allow your emotions to lead you allow your ego to control. That’s not the best or the most conducive path to living as progressive life. One of the best ways to control emotions is to welcome them when they’re coming, accept them, express them , and let them go.

BEST MOMENTS
‘In today’s world of spirituality and spiritual sales, a lot of people do not know what spirituality is, or they are merely suggesting it so that it enables their sales.’
‘We really must wake up to the fact that things are not perfect.’
‘Do not feel shame or guilt in experiencing human emotions. These are things that we really need to do because then we don’t carry them forward with us, we release them and let go.’

ABOUT THE HOST
Gavin Scott is a born entrepreneur with a passion for start up and scale up. He has over 20 years real estate experience in investment and development.
Gavin says: Over the years I have discovered that mindset is everything. Now, that might sound obvious, but it is! You see the number of awoken minds are very few in reality. Whilst acknowledging mindset is key it is absolutely different from utilising, influencing, impacting and effecting great change, for yourself, your loved ones, friends, colleagues and the wider public.
Why?
Like most of us I have had many ups and downs. I want to share the lessons learnt and promote a better environment for all, internally and externally!
How?
Through sharing my own experiences and hosting some fabulous individuals including some big household names to discuss key topics around mindset and the success formulas I hope the listener will become inspired to create space for change for betterment in their lives. I aim to inspire change by encouragement, not by force. I intend to inspire by education, not by regulation.
