Think2Thrive 'unplugged'

Earl Nightingale V (March 12, 1921 – March 25, 1989) was an American radio speaker and author, dealing mostly with the subjects of human character development, motivation, and meaningful existence. He was the voice during the early 1950s of SkyKing, the hero of a radio adventure series, and was a WGN radio program host from 1950 to 1956. Nightingale was the author of The Strangest Secret, which economist Terry Savage has termed "…one of the great motivational books of all time.

After the war, Nightingale began work in the radio industry, which eventually resulted in work as a motivational speaker. During the autumn of 1949, Nightingale was inspired while reading Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. Quoting from the Earl Nightingale official website: "When he was 29, Earl's enlightenment had come to him as a bolt out of the blue while reading, Think and Grow Rich. It came when he realised that the six words he read were the answer to the question he had been looking for! That, 'we become what we think about'. He realized that he had been reading the same truth over and over again, from the New Testament...to the works of Emerson. 'We become what we think about.' 'As ye sow, so shall ye reap.

In this Episode, Adrian will delve into Goals, the reason behind having goals in the first place and then how to decide what you really want!

For many people, they feel a sense of overwhelm when it comes to trying to decide what their goals are, or they are not thinking about it at all. As a species, we are goal seeking. We need to be aiming for something.

There is a natural law that states, 'if you are not growing you are dying', and that is the reason you need to have something to aim for. The reason for goals is to force you to grow, to learn, to pull something out from inside of you that you didn't even know existed. And it is with this growth, that causes you to gain.
