A reading of a piece that I wrote for no reason other than to express and capture how I was feeling as I repaired my personal and professional lives after hitting my lowest point. Just thought I’d share it...

In this episode I talk about 2 key factors to consider when looking at why we might not be getting the results we’d like in our personal or professional lives.

When our phone battery drops really low we usually prioritise getting it charged up ASAP as we know how much we rely on it - why don’t we do the same with ourselves?

Our capacity and effectiveness relies heavily on our energy levels both mental and physical. We’ll often say how we don’t have the energy (or capacity) for something or other but how much energy are we actually leaking needlessly?

As regular listeners and followers of mine will know our language is a powerful element in how we behave. Today’s episode is another example of that - this time I look at whether it’s really a ‘sacrifice’ or ‘giving up’ of something or is it really an exchange??

Analogy time! The tools, techniques and exercises we use to repair our ‘vehicles’ are the same that we use to maintain or improve. When we demand more of our ‘vehicles’ why is it that maintenance is the 1st thing to get dropped?

The language we use has a powerful affect on us and those around us and I’m not talking about f’ing and jeffing here but more subtle and common words we use that can perpetuate the way we think and feel about a situation.

You know the usual time travel movie plot. Hero goes back in time, changes something that has or could have huge consequences in the future then spends the rest of the movie trying to fix it? Small things can have a big affect. Today is YOUR future past - take care of the small things...

Having clarity on a situation is essential for making sound decisions. In this episode I share an approach or a lens through which you can view any situation or person (including ourselves) that has or does cause you frustration, annoyance, disappointment, regret or guilt.

In any given situation the only thing we can control is our response - it’s not always easy or obvious but here’s a little tactic you can use to help.
