  • Words Change Lives: What Story Will You Tell - Kristin Johnson

    In this very special series of episodes, Paul talks to the co-authors of his amazing new book, ‘Mastering The Game Of Life’, in which twenty global co-writers have shared stories about how they have mastered this ever-evolving game.

    This time, Paul talks to writer Kristin Johnson, who talks about her unique chapter, ‘Words Change Lives’, and how the simple act of choosing a well-timed word may be far more powerful than we think.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Words have immense power and energy. By selecting the right one, and by discerning the best way of expressing those words, we can move the hearts of readers and listeners.
    • Hope is a powerful beacon, especially in the world at present. It provides a guiding light to those in times of darkness.
    • Terrible things happen often, and life’s challenges can seem insurmountable. We can’t rewrite the past, but we can re-frame the stories of our lives in order to provide hope.

    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘Books have been a part of my life forever’

    ‘We are all creators, but what are we creating?'

    ‘Perception is all there is'

    ABOUT THE HOST

    One thing that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – something he is totally aware of.  He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned the iconic ‘Think Different’ Apple commercial narrated by Steve Jobs in 1977:

    “Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules.  You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do!”

    Paul has a long and distinguished history of coaching & mentoring – particularly focusing on helping people make the transition from pain to purpose; a journey he has made himself, from the depths of a deep dark existence, to now living a life of happiness and prosperity.

    Through this Mastering The Game Of Life podcast, and books he has been involved in – including being a best-selling co-author – Paul also helps others to get their own inspirational messages and stories out into the world; as well as offering support to many charitable organisations, in their development & fund-raising.

  • 10 Disciplines Of Love: Polarity - Kelly Brandli

    In this special ongoing mini-series, Paul and his special guest, relationship expert Kelly Brandli, talk in detail about the Ten Disciplines Of Love, the concept developed by Tony Robbins in order to allow us to build extraordinary relationships. 

    This time round, Paul and Kelly discuss the discipline of polarity, and how we use opposing energies to keep passion and romance alive in relationships. 

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Masculine energy is generally more protective and assertive. Feminine energy is more nurturing, compassionate and sensual. 
    • As children we tend to have a much more defined sense of energy. As we grow into adulthood, we tend to filter this energy to fit societal expectations. 
    • When we talk about polarity of energies, it’s important to remember that the positive displays of these forces are the crucial factors in relationships. 
    • The “spark” in a new relationship is often a chemical reaction in the body, based on familiarity. The problem is that familiarity isn’t always positive. 

    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘When we peel back the layers, we come to a discrepancy’ 

    ‘You’ll be much more successful in early dating if you understand how important polarity is’ 

    ‘We need to move away from that mindset that you need the spark!’ 

    ‘You create more happy, healthy partnerships when you understand what it is that’s making it a successful relationship'

  • There Are Seasons Before Us - Gary Clarke

    In this very special series of episodes, Paul talks to the co-authors of his amazing new book, ‘Mastering The Game Of Life’, in which twenty global co-writers have shared stories about how they have mastered this ever-evolving game.

    In this episode, Paul is joined by Gary Clarke, to discuss the many ups and downs that life can throw at us, and how Gary himself has found the mental fortitude to see his way through.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • All it takes is one small diversion in life to set us on the wrong path. We must be constantly vigilant of our place in the world, and how others see us.
    • Nothing in life ever comes easy. Usually the simplest path through life is to not take responsibility for your effect on others. It takes will power to take yourself away from the easy, detrimental path.
    • We must consider the effects that our journey and story may have on future generations. Hero worship of darker souls can lead to perpetual negativity. We have a real responsibility.

    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘As a young lad, I chose the wrong path in life’

    ’That thin line in life - we can just fall the wrong side of it for whatever reason’

    ‘Once you get in that way of life it’s like a drug - it’s very hard to get out of’

  • One Ball At A Time - Paul Kelly

    In this very special series of episodes, Paul talks to the co-authors of his amazing new book, ‘Mastering The Game Of Life’, in which twenty global co-writers have shared stories about how they have mastered this ever-evolving game.

    In this week’s episode, Paul talks to Paul Kelly about how life can throw many different challenges upon us at once, and how we can learn to focus on one task at a time.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Life is like cricket in that we may find ourselves on the receiving end of multiple balls, with many different targets. We must learn to focus on one ball at a time.
    • People are far too crippled by fear these days. We need to take the responsibility to challenge injustice - to stand up for what we believe in, and install high values everywhere.
    • It’s important to recognise that we can all struggle from time to time. Asking for help is not a weakness. If anything, it empowers another person to help.

    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘You can’t hit all six balls in one go - you can only hit one at a time’

    ’There are many people out there who’ll help you, guide you, and point you in the right direction’

    ’The ultimate game plan has got to be to master the game of life'

  • 10 Disciplines Of Love: Daily Intimacy - Kelly Brandli

    Continuing with their fascinating mini-series, Paul and his special guest, relationship expert Kelly Brandli, talk in detail about the Ten Disciplines Of Love, the concept developed by Tony Robbins in order to allow us to build extraordinary relationships.

    This time, Paul and Kelly discuss daily intimacy, and how important it is to nurture not just a deep emotional connection, but also a physical one.  

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • The word “intimacy” is best explained by breaking to down, until it is read “Into Me You See”. It is the act of allowing another into the smallest and most private spaces.
    • A relationship that contains a deep mental compatibility but not a physical one, may well be a deep friendship instead of a romantic relationship.
    • Often, a relationship that is going stale, is one where both partners are on track towards the same goals, but are doing it along two parallel lives, with only the briefest of touch points.
    • We can rekindle the fun, playfulness, and excitement in our relationships, merely by doing something unexpected.

    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘Intimacy on a daily basis is really about getting inside the person you’re in a relationship with’

    ’The most fulfilling, complete relationships include both aspects’

    ’To take your relationship to the next level, you really need to incorporate play and fun’

    ‘Part of playing is being able to use different emotions to your advantage'

  • Visibility Is More Than Just Being Seen - Kym Hamer

    In this totally unique 20-episode special series, Paul talks to the co-authors of his amazing new book, ‘Mastering The Game Of Life’, in which twenty global co-writers have shared stories about how they have made inroads to master this ever-evolving game.

    In this particular episode, Paul talks to Kym Hamer about her chapter, entitled ‘Visibility Is More Than Just Being Seen’, and how it may mean more than simply displaying our physical selves...

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Being visible is not just about having our physical selves seen, but our emotional, mental and spiritual sides on display to the world.
    • When we listen and pay attention to how others respond to us, we understand that while we may feel that we are projecting a certain image to the world, others see something different depending on their own perceptions.
    • Our brains build an automatic defence mechanism in order to protect us. This is a natural instinct left over from our past, but we must ask ourselves what it is protecting us against now.
    • By opening ourselves to new experiences, we condition ourselves to accept differences. It is a crucial part of understanding who we are and how we want to be seen.

    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘People buy from people’

    ‘Be open to the fact that life changes and that’s okay’

    ’Who tries the most stuff wins!’

    ’There’s a grounded-ness about who you are in the moment'

  • What Does Mastering The Game Of Life Mean To You? - 20 World Game-Changers

    To celebrate the forthcoming release of his new book, Mastering The Game Of Life, in November - a book built upon a message of hope, inspiration and love - Paul has invited 19 other selfless, game-changing co-authors from around the world to give their insights into the very powerful question: “What Does Mastering The Game Of Life Mean To You?"

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Mastering the game of life means that you have achieved mental, emotional and spiritual sovereignty. When you achieve this, you make moves with purpose as an empowered creator.
    • True listening comes from understanding the meaning of someone’s message. We must put aside our own emotional filters and accept the meaning willingly.
    • Crafting and creating a life that we truly want should be the aim for everyone. Finding that path with our hearts, creates a passionate, rich creative life.
    • We all wish that we had the wisdom of a lifetime when we are young, but in fact we do have that opportunity. By listening to those who’ve walked the path before us, we can swiftly attain wisdom and insight.
    • Mastering the game of life is about learning lessons from every experience. Relationships and love are the defining factors upon the shape of our journey.

    BEST MOMENTS

    ’No matter what we have in life, bad, good or indifferent, it’s all an experience’

    ‘Our words create our reality’

    ‘As you go through life you will hit a few snakes that bring you down, but there’s no such thing as failure’

    ‘We’re all here to learn lessons. We’re all here to become better people'

    ‘Relationships are what define us'

  • 10 Disciplines Of Love: Absolute Courage And Vulnerability - Kelly Brandli

    Continuing with their fascinating mini-series, Paul and his special guest, relationship expert Kelly Brandli, talk in detail about the Ten Disciplines Of Love - the concept developed by Tony Robbins - in order to allow us to build extraordinary relationships.

    This time, they exchange thoughts about the discipline of absolute courage and vulnerability, and why the two are inextricably linked... 

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • It takes immense courage to allow ourselves to be vulnerable; to lower the defences and allow another person inside.
    • Courage allows us to take the first step towards revealing our true selves. Vulnerability is the practice of being truly seen, no matter what the consequences.
    • In relationships, we want to be able to see inside a person, to the parts that shape and define them., Those who refuse access are often labelled as “emotionally unavailable”.
    • We often bend the truth or exclude a fact when in relationships. This is our way of withholding the vital essence of ourselves. In the long run, it may have a detrimental effect upon the relationship.

    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘Vulnerability is the last thing I want you to see in me, but it’s the first thing I look for in you’

    ‘Vulnerability is not a weakness, but our greatest measure of courage’

    ‘I’m just putting it out there - I am not singing on this podcast!'

    ‘Vulnerability is about giving glimpses over time’

  • How Young Game Changers See The World - Ellie Eichenlaub

    In his continuing focus on viewing the world through younger eyes, Paul talks to Ellie Eichenlaub, a compassionate caring student, who has devoted much of her young life so far, to working in the community.

    In this episode, Ellie talks about her unique outlook on life, why the world is very different for young people growing up, and her hopes for the world going forward!

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Young people are almost raised upon the new way of reporting news - namely a largely negative perspective upon every world event on social media. 
    • Human beings are not infallible. They make mistakes. We are constantly growing. To punish someone for their past transgressions by “cancelling” them is not helpful or productive. 
    • The younger generation are often mislabelled as rude, when sometimes the opposite is true. It can be the older generation that acts as more entitled.
    • Causes championed by the younger people are often seen as radical by those who are older. But they aren’t radical. They are simply benevolent and require empathy instead of confrontation.

    BEST MOMENTS

    ’It feels like some of the older generations aren’t as aware’

    ’Social media is used to create more fear than love’

    ‘We grow by learning’

    ’This is the bare minimum. You need to go further'

    • People always want to allocate their philanthropic funding in order to create change, but often get in their own way. Sometimes beliefs can hinder the impact they are seeking to effect.
    • Before we begin to give freely, we must ensure that we are taking care of ourselves. This can be through learning or development, but the end goal should always be growth.
    • Most funders do genuinely want to make a difference in the world when they give away their wealth with charitable intentions, but are often misguided in the way they do it.
    • Guilt can play an interesting role with the wealthy. Especially in terms of those who have inherited their wealth, a sense of guilt around their privileged place in the world can lead to a belief that self-development is not worth pursuing.

    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘I help them to increase the clarity, impact and joy of their giving’

    ‘In order to help other people, you need to take care of yourself’

    ‘You do have to take the time and be willing to change the lens with which you’re thinking about your giving’

    ‘We need to be the best philanthropists and donors that we can be'

    ABOUT THE HOST

    One thing that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – something he is totally aware of.  He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned the iconic ‘Think Different’ Apple commercial narrated by Steve Jobs in 1977:

    “Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules.  You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do!”

    Paul has a long and distinguished history of coaching & mentoring – particularly focusing on helping people make the transition from pain to purpose; a journey he has made himself, from the depths of a deep dark existence, to now living a life of happiness and prosperity.

    Through this Mastering The Game Of Life podcast, and books he has been involved in – including being a best-selling co-author – Paul also helps others to get their own inspirational messages and stories out into the world; as well as offering support to many charitable organisations, in their development & fund-raising.

    “Remember – Mastering The Game Of Life Starts, By Embracing Our Hearts!”
