Killer Wednesdays

15 minutes

If you get to the middle of the week and question what it’s all about then this podcast is a must-listen.

Desmond discusses why we experience killer Wednesdays and what we should be doing about it.

As individuals, we need to own our sh#t! listen in and start being the best you can be every day.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Wednesday is the day you start questioning life, is this what I want to do? am I really happy with my job?

Wednesday is a day for reflection, we look back and look forward to what we are doing and where we are going.

If you are questioning your interest, energy and passion, it’s important to understand the reasons why you feel that way.

You need to be aware of how negative and adverse feelings impact on your performance and output.

People fall into the trap of using external factors as an excuse to blame how they feel and justify their actions.

You have to take ownership of the stuff you are responsible for – we are all responsible for how we feel, how we react, our commitment, our energy, our engagement with others and the passion we bring.

If you are professional, you must own it, be responsible for it and deliver every time.

Wash away the thoughts of Monday morning blues and killer Wednesdays, start to think differently about how to perform and deliver at a high level all the time.

It requires skill to contain the stress, challenges and frustrations and continue in your role professionally.

If you want to earn more, do more and get more you’ve got to think differently.

We can all do more, achieve more, be better but we have to take control and own it. It's our responsibility nobody else’s.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Own your sh#t’

‘You can do something about it, you owe it to yourself and your employer’

‘You are in the groove for work but mentally at the point of ‘is this something I actually like’

‘Doubts start setting in you’ve completed 2 hard days of work and there are still 2 to go’

‘The internal factors are yours and you’ve got to do what you can to make it the best it can be regardless of external factors’

ABOUT THE HOST

I don’t know how this works, but you’re here now listening (hopefully) about my

exciting life, so I’m going to try and make this worth your while. I never got

inspired at school, I was too busy trying to impress my peers, chasing girls,

and being a fool to get inspired. I rejected school. But let me tell you

something for free! That was a mistake! I spent the next 15 years in jobs I

hated, with no direction, lacked purpose, and motivation for life. Yes, big

words, but that was me in a box. A slave to the system! Fast forward to today,

and well, I’m not sitting in my ivory tower or anything, but I love life and my

career. Yeah, it’s both painful and exciting rolled and wrapped up into one

giant subway, and who doesn’t love subway rite? The point is, you only get one

life, don’t waste it pursuing things you care nothing for, invest in YOURSELF

and grow as a person, be the best YOU by putting YOU first!
