This one has been a game changer for me for years. Whether that be living it, teaching it or holding myself and others accountable to it. 

A simple yet very powerful principle to embed into our lives and business that create a culture of accountability.

Power to you. 

Stop waiting for life to come to you. Why wait for the validation or permission of someone else or something else. We all wait even as grown ups. Take the plunge, enjoy the moment. Live your life. Be kind

We don't know what we don't know. We also don't know that what we know is correct most of the time...consider that for a moment!  

Getting comfortable in the uncomfortable in all areas of life is key to growing as a human being. Whether that be mentally, physically, emotionally, educationally, financially or spiritually...growing is the only constant. If we are not growing, we are dying.   

So what areas of your life and business do you want to grow stronger in? What part of your day is keeping you up at night? How many things are you putting off doing, because you don't believe you can?  

Time to start living....time to start getting comfortable in the uncomfortable.

Have you ever heard Dan Stanley of Better Men (https://better-men.uk/) speak before. If not, I wholeheartedly encourage you to follow this guy and join up with his tribe of men who in his words, leave their ego in the car park and walk out together. 

Dan joined us at Evo networking (https://www.evo-networking.com/) this morning and gave us 45 minutes of absolute gold in terms of challenging our thinking and how we feel about success, our lives and what really matters. He shared lots of wisdom as well as mentioning two epic books, which I highly recommend picking up, one being Legacy - the story of the All Blacks and the second being Untethered Soul - an absolute game-changer of a book. 

Dan asked us and challenged us to reflect on our choices, our disciplines, our habits that aren't serving us and to consider new ones that would serve us better, leaving us with an epic quote, part of that you can find in the title of this podcast and the purpose for this podcast.

Enjoy and reflect on it...what are you avoiding that you know you need to make a shift with. 

**Public disclaimer, my partner doesn't pick her toe nails...thought I better make that clear! 😂

People always say that life is about compromise, relationships, business etc etc its all about compromise! 

Here is why I don't agree with that! Because when we compromise ourselves, our values, our beliefs, what makes us us, disappears. Understand for you, how you define the difference between accommodate and compromise! 

Enjoy

An interesting musing for today....and one that I take very seriously as a coach. I believe as coaches, we have a very privileged position where you share a lot of fears, concerns, dreams aspirations etc with us and we help you get where it is you want to get too, despite all of that. 

Enjoy a few moments of reflection from a coach of over 20 years who was asked what is the biggest frustration you face with coaching and what is the bit you enjoy the most.

Such a simple question, but one, if we allow ourselves to ponder, we may find ourselves coming up short! 

Are you listening to hear?

Are you listening to respond?

Are you listening to the back of your neck?

Have a listen and let me know your thoughts. The Go Giver Book range can be found here: https://thegogiver.com/ We would highly recommend grabbing the range of books for you and/or your company library. 

Enjoy. 

Hell Yes! 

So this one is a classic and controversial at the same time - why? Because everyone has an opinion about it. 

In this musing, I share mine, after years of coaching and training thousands of business owners across the globe, across industry sectors...

Be bold. Be clear. be visible. 

So many people say they fear rejection and they struggle to hear 'No' from a customer. 

For me, I love a NO, almost as much as I love a YES...the ones that kill me, are the 'MAYBE' responses. 

Indecision, not knowing, paralysis - that't the hardest part for me. 

So I challenged myself years ago to get back to my values and understand what is required in supporting those to make a good decision for them, whether that is to do business with me or not!

When you truly get comfortable in this space, you are on a path to continued success. 

Sick of hearing that trust needs to be earned! What a load of horsesh*t!

The only limit you place on trust when you build conditions into trust is that on yourself. Your potential. The potential of what can happen when you do trust others! 

Trust is a given thing and Ernest Hemingway famously said "The best way to find out if you can trust someone is to trust them"

I recently read Matthew McConaughey's book Green Lights and what an epic read - if you haven't read this book it is a sin...you can get your copy here: https://greenlights.com/

He talks about trust is something you give 100% and that is what I have always believed, i explain more in the podcast/video - enjoy. 

If it resonates, feel free to share, if you want to keep it to yourself, thank you for tuning in!
