"Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago." Warren Buffett

In this episode, I explore my thoughts on why it is important for us all to monitor how we exchange our time and the value we get in return. Time is our most precious resource.

As selfish as I feel I am with my time I am also considerate of the time others give up for my benefit. It is not for me to judge how someone uses their time but it is up to me to appreciate the time that they give. Enjoy this thought.

Like a ball of snow that starts off small but as it rolls down the hill, it expands in size at an ever increasing rate until it becomes a large mass of accumulated snow. Everything in life that we repeatedly do can have this effect with results both favorable in unfavorable outcomes. 

A miner who was convinced there was a rich deposit of gold in a specific location began to dig. He dug and dug, and dug some more until he couldn't bear to dig anymore. He gave up and abandoned his mine yet still went on dreaming for that he could never find.

Another man stumbled upon this same site and with an axe in hand thought he’d give it a strike. In only a few picks you wouldn’t believe the sight. A depositary of gold that allowed him to retire for life.

“We numb vulnerability. We are the most in debt, obese, addicted and over medicated adult cohort in US history. The problem is that we cannot selectively numb emotion.” Brene Brown

In this episode, I share my thoughts on why numbing emotions isn’t ideal. It has been inspired by a TED Talk I heard recently by Brene Brown. I wrote a short article about it here.

The thought is that by numbing our emotions we numb all emotions even the good ones like happiness. This can place us in a vicious cycle that is certainly no benefit for living this experience as fully as possible.

I share ideas as to how we can avoid numbing emotions. Strategies that have worked for me and in doing so found a greater balance with my emotions, greater control over them and more joy in life.

Let me know what you think by leaving your comments below.

In this episode, I share my story. Why I am passionate about suffering and regret and creating lifestyles that minimize these elements. 

I want to share what I’ve learned because I believe there is some great value to be had in creating a life with more freedom, fulfillment, and happiness.

Over the last year, I’ve written a book and created a mentoring program called The Ultimate Life Map. I will be launching a campaign soon to publish this book with the intention to raise funds to complete a schooling project in Uganda.

Prior to that I will be rolling out a menotring program that i've created to support people in the process of creating and living their own Ultiamte Life.

Have a listen to this episode. If the program sounds of interest, please message me directly or email me at [email protected].
