It's a hard pill to swallow but, for most people, goal-setting just doesn't seem to work out.

So, should we just give up on achieving what we want?

Heck, no!

Jingle Bells: by Ozzy (using Jack's Christmas collar ;) )

Thought I'd better clarify something I said in episode #129 - particularly as 2016 has seen so much happening.

Any bad stuff that happened in your life...

...my best guess is you attracted none of it.

So quit beating yourself up!

You may have to take responsibility for sorting some of it - but you're not to blame and it's not your fault.

Big difference :)

As we race towards the end of what could be described as a momentous year, it's time to take a look back at 2016 and figure out how it shaped up for you.

We're not going to look at politics, or the number of celebs who died...

...we're focusing solely on you.

It's almost a week since the last episode, and I think I owe you an explanation.

So here it is.

It may sound pretty boastful at one stage - but stick with me and you'll see that's not what this is about :)

17 years ago today, my dad suddenly passed away.

This episode was a tough one to record, but I wanted to pay tribute to my dad...

...and for you to be able to take something from it.

A lot to cover today:

- a great course I heartily recommend,

- an exciting new video series,

- where I've been the last couple of days,

- and, most important of all, your list.

I know you have one - we all do - and it's time to start checking things off.

Oh! And here's the link I promised you in the podcast, to where you can discover more about the course - https://whensmytime.com/mfwm/

OK - tricky one, this time.

I'm not saying it's a bad thing to follow your passion - but it's not always as straightforward as some folks would have you believe!

Check out what I believe is a better way to find fulfilment.

There are certain people who seem to have everything figured out in life.

Then there are the rest of us.

If you're one of the majority who still hasn't worked it all out, 2 things you should know.

1 - you're not alone, and

2 - you can fix that.

A guy called Adam Leipzig has identified 5 questions to ask yourself...

...and the answers to those questions are going to help you figure out your purpose.

Beliefs - we all have them.

They can be fantastic and sustain us

- or they can be totally destructive, bringing us down at every opportunity, without us even noticing.

Let's take a look at whether our beliefs are serving us...

...and what to do about it if they're not.
