Transcending Yesterday

Yep, that's right.

Today is a special episode where I’m joined by my good friend Nils to talk about the differences and similarities between the routes we have been down. Nils went to uni, got a degree and then a job whereas I dropped out to start my own business.

So 2 very different paths yet I’d say we’re quite similar in terms of our work ethic, our philosophies and our general personalities. 

On today's episode, Bill Clarke and Nils will chat about the difficulties when it comes to deciding what you want to do, how university can mould us as people, as well as some of our tips for navigating your next steps in life.

So let’s start with something that cost me £20,000.


No, it wasn’t a car or a deposit on a house.


It was a choice.


A choice to do what everyone else was doing.


Imagine that, making a decision that you think is right but then slowly understanding you were just going along with the norm.


Hey, we all make mistakes. I make a lot of small ones and some big ones but this was one I know I truly learned the best lesson from.


When everyone is going one way, go the other.


An important lesson in personal development.


How can you know at the age of 16 what your path is? Do you go to university? Do you travel? Do you go straight into a job? Do you take the leap into entrepreneurship?


Self-improvement can really start when we understand our purpose.


That's when we can truly Transcend Yesterday.


Key points from today's episode = 

• Why are we forced to plan our careers at 16 - A-levels, uni, debt, grad scheme, life.
• The education system doesn’t show us the potential for life outside careers
• 3 tips to finding purpose (look at passions, look at 5 people you admire, trying new things both good and bad)

Stay safe and have a great day!

Have you ever found yourself doing something meaningless then wondered where the last 2 hours went? Today I talk about how I overcame unexpected distractions in my days and how you can too.

Key points:

• How distractions can come up from anywhere
• 3 steps to analysing your distractions
• How to realistically overcome distractions

£6 to save at least an hour every single day is something I’d happily pay. Especially self-employed where my time is money. I’m not sponsored by Casio in any way but £6 for saving hours and free next day delivery... That might be the Yorkshire in me coming out.

Have a listen to today's podcast on how my cheap watch saved me from hours of potential distraction.
