Normal, How?


Listen Later

‘Your whole life gets to be a whole lot more fun when you decide what’s normal for you’

This absorbing episode explores what normal is and why we should all be able to choose and take control of our own normal in life.

By definition tutors and entrepreneurs have chosen to walk a different path, a path of their own and this podcast is an invaluable insight into how we can calibrate and regulate normality to stay happy and healthy.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Normal is mostly perceptual, Philosophers and psychologists wrangle about what’s real versus what is subjective and objective but they agree that how we respond to, and interpret anything that is done to us impacts on well-being and mental health.
  • Normal is what happens most of the time it’s how we’d ordinarily behave and ordinarily think.
  • We moderate all the external stimuli through our beliefs and behaviours and this interpretation is manifested in the way we respond and behave.
  • We always have a choice and unless we exercise that choice today will just be yesterday repeating itself.
  • Decide on your own personal normality, how to do it and how to create a better reality out of that better normality.
  • Visualise in detail your perfect day and over time repeat and refine it clarifying in your mind what you ultimately want and then take action.
  • When you set up a trajectory for your life each small action makes a difference and if you keep doing it, it becomes a habit, your normality.
  • Those small changes build into a different way of moving through the world and as you change your business will change with you.
  • Over the course of a lifetime the change is huge,  just keep on recalibrating normality every day.
  • We all create our own lives and decide what normal looks, sounds, feels and smells like for us and it's vital to take control of your own normal.
