The Speed Mentor Podcast

‘How Do You Get the Figs into the Fig Rolls?’

This has been a famous and iconic ad run by Jacobs biscuit years ago but Gavan, the speed mentor, is still fascinated with this. How so?

In this episode of the Speed Mentor Podcast, Gavan reflects on how figs can be likened to healthy relationships we have, or we can have. He also shares The Parable of the Fig Tree to support his statement; just like the fig tree, every human connection requires concern, care and affection. Let’s admit it, we have, maybe once in our lives, have taken granted a relationship we have – may it be with your loved ones or with people at work. It’s time to put in some effort and let the fig tree (your relationships) grow, so you’ll have something to harvest!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The Parable of the Fig Tree tells the story of the vineyard owner who has been disappointed with his tree because it has not been bearing any fruits for three years. He asked the gardener to cut it down, but the gardener refused and swayed the owner instead that he be given a year to nurture it. If the tree still hasn’t borne fruit by then, then the owner could do as he pleases.
• Just like the fig tree, every relationship should be taken care of. Don’t expect relationships to flourish if you don’t do anything. Start communicating and add value to others. We should take responsibility if we see that our relationships are deteriorating. Are we too distant? Do we drag them to their misery?

BEST MOMENTS

• “Stephen Covey said, ‘When you show deep empathy toward others, their defensive energy goes down, and positive energy replaces it.’”
• “We expect so much of others, of our relationships with others, of there being there for us, of the relationship to flourish, but so few of us are spending the time to fertilize the fig tree that represents the people in our lives, and the figs are the fruits of our relationships with them.”

When was the last time you experienced failure? If you can’t remember when, then maybe, you’ve been in your comfort zone far too long!

Today on the latest episode of the Speed Mentor Podcast, Gavan encourages you to get out of your comfort zone, do it, and get ready to fail (and succeed). Life is too short to be wasted on sitting there wondering and worrying about what could happen. Start moving, do your best, and aim for success. Treat the failures as lessons on how you can improve yourself and help you in your next decisions. Success will surely come in your way if you have the right mindset and motivation. So, let me ask you, are you prepared to fail?

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Start getting out more and challenge yourself more especially if you know that you are stagnating. You have to upgrade your routine, your habits, or your tasks if you want to grow and improve yourself.
• According to Peter Thiel, failure is not a necessary part of a learning curve to achieving success.
• You will either succeed or fail at everything you do. But, don’t worry about what will happen in the end. Do your best, so you get to the end goal you want. You’re able to exhaust the knowledge and the skill set you probably don’t even know you are capable of having.
  • Gavan knows he’s not the best of the best, but deep down, he knows that he has to get the speed mentor message out there. So, he goes out of the way just to do this.
• There are a lot more opportunities for success when you don’t box yourself in what you’re comfortable with. Explore. If you don’t think you have the skill, then start learning.

1. The risk of failure is everywhere.
2. Protect the downside.
3. Don’t let the fear of failure stop us from acting.

BEST MOMENTS

• “The beauty of not knowing whether something will succeed or fail is you’re forced to level up, to dig deep, to find your secret sauce, to be the best that you can be, to work harder, to give more, to get creative, to persuade others to help you, and to be resourceful, so you don’t fail.”
• “Failing is something we must keep in mind and something we must consider.”

Be grateful with what you have and what you don’t have.

On today’s episode of the Speed Mentor Podcast, Gavan talks about what he learned from Nick Vujicic. Nick is a motivational speaker who was born with no limbs and no arms. He knows his no ordinary, so he learned to embrace the fact; he makes it as his ultimate power to contribute value to others. It was difficult for him being different growing up and almost gave up on life. But, he got through it and decided that he has a mission – a mission to inspire others through his personal stories and experience. The biggest takeaway of Gavan from Nick is when you want something, then there should be no excuses. Listen in to know more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Gavan’s advice: When taking down notes, go digital instead of using papers. It’s easier to go back to them anywhere, anytime if they are also synced in the cloud.
• Nick Vujicic is born with Phocomelia, a rare congenital disorder, characterised by the absence of arms and limbs. He is now 36 years of age and now known as a motivational speaker.
• He was bullied a lot when he was in school and this significantly affected his mental health. At the early age of 8, he was depressed and suicidal.
• He has a ‘chicken drumstick’, as he calls it, which is one of his two small and deformed feet. This can type 45 words per minute according to him.
• Nick’s parent treated him as a normal person. For example, when Nick asked his mom to reach something from the top shelf because he couldn’t reach it, his mom refused to get it for him and advised to find his own ways on how to do it. Instead of sulking about this, he got creative, went out of his way, and amazingly did it.
• Your truth and value are not the numbers of likes you get on Facebook, it’s the people that you surround yourself with.
• His speaking career journey all started from the time the school janitor told him he could be a speaker. The idea got stuck on his head and decided one day to just go for it. He contacted schools and got rejections. He refused to give up and instead, learned the art of pitching.

BEST MOMENTS

• “Her parents said to him: You need to sort yourself out. No one’s going to do it for you.”
• “He doesn’t know what’s impossible until he knows what’s possible.”
• “Attitude is altitude.”
• “You can be angry for what you don’t have and be grateful for what you do have. Have the courage to feel. Embrace your journey. If it was easy, there will be no joy and achievement.”
• “…he didn’t listen to that comment because he knew what he wanted. Nick decided he wanted it so badly, he wasn’t going to let rejections get in his way.”
• “Believe in the impossible – an impossible dream, and it can be born.”

It’s not just goal setting that guarantees your successful future, it’s also essential to practice sacrifice setting. So, how do we do sacrifice setting? On this episode of the Speed Mentor Podcast, Gavan helps you in this process and also shares his own experience. From absolutely nothing, he was able to rebuild his business, because he was willing and making the sacrifices for himself and his family. Discover how giving up the stuff that only gives you short-term gratification will better yourself and help you in the long-term.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Once you start your journey, you have to understand that you have to make a lot of sacrifices along the way. No successful person ever had it easy.
• Often, people use the ‘Family is everything’ card as an excuse to work harder. Remember that all the little things you do today are for them. So, if you’re missing out on a lot of things, remember that those are things that you need to sacrifice for your comfortable and hassle-free future.
• Make a list of sacrifices you’re willing to do to better yourself. List down things that don’t add value and are wasteful. Most of all, defer short-term gratifications. Whether it be buying that jacket, choosing a hotel, or paying for a premium subscription, always ask yourself if this will actually benefit you in the long run.
• When Gavan lost everything he owned, he knew he had to do drastic changes just to rebuild the financial fortress for him and his family. He wasn’t able to see his family most of the time because he was rebuilding the business. Gavan and his wife made these sacrifices:
  • No travelling abroad for 7 years.
  • Shave head every 6 weeks. It saves money.
  • They ate food nearing the ‘best before’ date.
  • They lived with relatives for a while.
  • Gavan had to give up his church Sundays with his family.
  • He gave up rush hour traffic.
  • He gave alcohol.
  • They refrained from buying new clothes, except for underwear.
  • He worked 100 hours every single week.
  • They downgraded their cars.

BEST MOMENTS

• “Along the way, you’re gonna have to do a lot of sacrifices if you really want to achieve something significant.”
• “Think about long-term, folks… The earlier in your adult life you make sacrifices to create abundance in life, the better.”
• “Short term gratifications kill long-term aspirations.”

It’s difficult to stand out among your competitors and create traction to gain followers. Gavan’s advice is to call them believers rather than followers.

And, in this episode of the Speed Mentor Podcast, Gavan also gives you advice on how to hone your first believer – yourself! Of course, no one’s ever gonna be interested in what you’re selling them, whether it be an idea, a product, or a service if they feel that you’re not authentic. Learn today how to create your believers/followers, offline and online, organically. Start listening in.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Ask yourself first: What is your purpose? You need to answer this big question so you could start attracting your followers.
• Believe in yourself so others can believe in you. When people agree with your ideas or just even feel the confidence that you show, most likely, they’ll be interested.
• Create a movement of people. If people believe your message, they’ll have an urge to spread that message, and consequently, this might also grow your followers.
• Be authentic and don’t go copying somebody else. What you post and publish should match what you are saying. It will be difficult to get the trust of people if you’re not real and consistent.
• Be Consistent and Post regularly.
• Connect with others.
• Use hashtags.
• Standout from the crowd.
• Value your own ambition more than the opinion of others.
• Start conversations with other people.
• Create events that people can go to.
• Comment on other people’s posts.
• Let others know how their lives will change for the better.

BEST MOMENTS

• “Who might be your first follower or believer? Who does it need to be? Because it’s a lot closer to home than you might realise.”
• “If you don’t know what you stand for or if you haven’t ruminated or cogitated about it at length, then why the hell would anybody else be bothered to believe in you?”
• “Keep your message straight.”
• “Once you have a purpose then you have something to execute.”

“The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek.” – Joseph Campbell

This quote applies to start a podcast. It’s tough at the beginning, but it becomes gratifying throughout the journey. In this episode of the Speed Mentor Podcast, Gavan takes us closer to the world of podcasting. Matthew Thompson, the #1 podcaster right now in Belfast, discusses with Gavan some great tips for those who are thinking of starting a podcast.

Starting a podcast and creating great content for it is definitely no joke. You have to be your own speaker, writer, producer, and editor among other stuff. Most importantly, you have to have to be motivated to provide value among the listeners. Make sure to tune in to know more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Gavan waited for six weeks to open the boxes, containing the containing podcasting equipment, because of fear.
• He had to learn everything about podcasting. When he started using the mic recorders, he had issues with how his voice came out. Sometimes, it was too monotonous or sometimes, he can tell from hearing his own voice that he loses his flow.
• Tips on Podcasting:
  • Shure mv88 – A microphone you can plug on your mobile easily.
  • Anchor – Install on your mobile so you can record a podcast on-the-go. The Anchor app is available on iOS and Google Play.
  • Stop reading scripts verbatim. Make PowerPoint slides to help you structure your discussion.
  • Learn how the basics of producing, editing and publishing your own podcast.
  • Take note that the beginning will be the most difficult. Always continue learning.

BEST MOMENTS

• “If you’re too scripted, it turns into an audiobook.”
• “That’s why podcasting is exploding now… It’s because of its so many barriers for entry. You have to be a producer… you have to be a good editor… you have to be a good public speaker… The more barriers you can remove from your life, the more shows you make.”
• “You, especially who loves the journey and taking people on the journey… you should love the fact that people will look back in 10 years’ time and laugh at your first episodes… They’ll say, ‘Look at how crappy he started, and look at where he is now.’”

He’s the Speed Mentor and serial entrepreneur, who shares with you all the breadcrumbs of success and just as importantly the failures. If you listen, you can avoid the potholes and learn to conquer your fear and live a life of success and abundance just like him.

But be warned, his message can be stark and will not be for those seeking shortcuts. If you’re wanting to be told that the law of attraction will deliver success wrapped in a bow to your front door, then this Podcast isn’t for you, as that’s never going to happen! It’s time to own your own sh#t, never blame others and take the massive action to create the attraction.

The opportunities and whitespace are everywhere. Gavan will help you get outside your comfort zone, connect with others, shed the scarcity mindset, set gorilla goals and achieve so much more.

When’s the last time you had a good night sleep? Moreover, when’s the last time you felt that you were productive and creative with your waking hours?

Learn in this latest episode of the Speed Mentor Podcast how you can maximise the activities you need and want to do when you’re awake. Gavan emphasises how important sleep is in your daily cycle. You sleep to replenish the energy you need to conquer your entire day. We’ve all been carefree about resting and caring for our body. Gavan gives excellent recommendations to get that good night sleep every night. Build your sleeping routine and start increasing your productivity today so listen in.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Where do you fit?
  • The Bullsh#tters.
  • The Macho Men.
  • Those who don’t realise how important sleep is.
  • Those who would like more sleep but don’t know how to get it.
  • Those who do so little activities during the day.
  • All the rest who cherish their sleep
• Gavan’s body requires him to burn more energy than any other person. In his 20s, he did heavy partying almost every single day. His next job as a barrister also caused him sleep deprivation.
• Sleep deprivation can lead to dementia. Have a sleep routine and get 8 hours of sleep per night as much as possible.
• If you want more rest, here are Gavan’s recommendations:
  • Change your mindset.
  • Start using an alarm clock. Set it a little earlier than the time you ordinarily wake up.
  • Hydrate properly.
  • Don’t work beyond 9 pm and have enough chill time before sleeping.
  • Have a healthy diet. Avoid caffeine.
  • Reduce your alcohol consumption.
  • Keep your technologies, which can be distracting, out of the bedroom.

BEST MOMENTS

• “Your outcomes in life will depend far more on how you utilise and maximise your waking hours and how many hours of sleep you actually get.”
• “Warm shower is the closest thing to REM sleep that you can get when you’re awake.”
• “The extra sleep has been extraordinarily beneficial to me as I move from running businesses, which have well-defined processes, and the grocery franchise industries into more creative ventures, such as podcasts and tech start-ups.”
