I talk about looking at an old photograph of myself before swimming the English Channel and how healthy I looked and how after the swim made me feel less healthy and physically fit.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• I’d love to tell all of you that I look and feel healthy, but I don’t. Ever since I swam the English Channel the physical game has become a bit of a battle and it’s been sliding downhill: Injuries mounting, laziness increasing, maybe even living in past glories.
• I’ve been looking at things quite differently recently. I’ve been letting my hair grow, I’ve got a longer beard than I’ve ever had. I don’t see this as a bad thing or a dirty thing, the hair is quite unruly and has a mind of its own! I’ve been thinking about getting clean-shaven and cutting my hair so that I’m more in line with the person that I was, but the funny thing is that on the other side of that point, I could be that same person, just with a long beard and long curly hair.
• Why do I want to cut my hair and be clean shaven? It’s not because I think people will respect me more or look at me and think “he’s a good guy. It’s simply because I look at a representation of myself from the past and think “yeah, I want to align to be that person”.

BEST MOMENTS
‘Looking at this photo jump started something in me, it made me feel something and now I’m inspired by it and committed to it.’
‘What is it that makes us think that if I do this action, I will be closer to that outcome? Is it grasping at straws? Is it desperation? Is it spontaneous action?’
‘To not be open minded means that you are not allowing something to flow in your life, there’s a dead end, a perception, a choice.’
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.
