"There are things known and there and things unknown, and in between are the doors" Jim Morrison
Questions drive us and while the answers have utility, they are not the ultimate.  This episode will explore this unusual dichotomy and teach you:
- To excel at any given situation 
- To understand yourself
and of course
- How to Upgrade yourself.
Lets begin!

Self Discipline Upgraded - the Synergistic effect

If you could will yourself to do what you wanted to do, life would be amazing right? Possibly - the fact is many people do this and either fail or are miserable.

This doesn't make sense, until you realize discipline while being an incredible tool is not enough on its own...

 

Emergency Tool - Use in case of Panic, Apathy or Unresourcefulness

If you want to spend a significant portion of your day 'meditating' to become centered:

1) This will consume a significant amount of your valuable 'spare' time

and 

2) Results are NOT guaranteed

What would be better, is a tool you can use in the moment, that could help you to calm down the craziness, become charismatic and just enjoy your life...

The FEAR Epiphany

Once you realize, I mean understand at a deep level that you make up your fears, you are on the way to conquering them.

'But what if it's a dog going to attack me?' or something equally urgent?

This and other questions are answers within.

Remember:

Defeat your fear and start living.

Archetypes: the blueprint to overcome and make a comeback

You are not alone whatever you are going through:

Understanding this is just the first step...

Yes OR No - The consequences of your choices

Life is a series of choices. 

Choose whats right,

Chose what makes you happy,

Choose what is important.

However are you aware of the implications of each choice? Each time you say yes to something you are in effect saying no to many more things. Let's go deeper in this episode...

 

Deal with Toxic People and Friendships

We are directly influenced by our environment, and impacted by those closest to us, as such we need to make sure we make the right choice when it comes to dealing with difficult people. 

Sometimes its good to cut them out, sometimes however this will hurt you in the long run. 

Let's deal with this dichotomy head on.

Time Compounding - Delayed Cause and Effect

Cause and effect in science is straight forward but in terms of human behaviour, it's not.

This is not necessarily a negative though, through understanding and adapting to this, we are able to make the changes to achieve more than you even thought was possible!

From here you can achieve any goal, behaviour or outcome.

Red Pill VS Blue Pill. What it really means, the Journey to Truth.

Neo : What are you trying to tell me? That I can dodge bullets? ... You take the red pill - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes ... (from the Matrix.)

There is much discussion about red and blue pills, and between pseudo self help, pop culture, viagra, left and right wing politics, becoming 'woke' and waking up it has basically lost its true meaning. 

When you take the red pill, it is the step of pursuing truth. The truth is not always pleasing to hear, so we often gather teachers to please our itching ears instead. If you are ready, let us begin.

 

Persuade, Motivate and Influence

In this episode we will unpack the incredible tool that has an extensive evidence base which supports its use.

Used for self change, on others, family and social dynamics. Once you understand what Influence really is, you can then motivate or persuade others in the most ethical and effective manner.

Master your Memory - Long term Recall in the short term.

You must have heard or read something about memory and hacks to improve your memory. After seeing someone memorise large lists effortlessly you may try their techniques only to find that it does require more effort than you thought. 

There are two options: be flooded by information on how to master your memory or spend a few minutes listening to the show, then the same time practicing and you will be infinitely better off.

 

Social Anxiety - THE Solution feat. Move from Failure to Success

The solution is discussed in the podcast or better yet the book:

My Martial Arts Journey (as it runs parallel to) My Personal Development Journey

Aka ZERO to HERO

I hope you had an amazing Christmas and wish you all the very best for 2020!

 

This episode is in response to some of the listeners I interact with about martial arts, it unpacks my martial arts journey, which runs in parallel to my personal development journey.

 

You may hear people say, “If I can do it – then anyone can…”

 

In my case I really mean it, coming from the worst athletic background ever, to where I am today

 

• Rather than impress you - I want to impress upon you that you really can do it, even if objectively speaking you are pathetic physically, because I was probably worse than you were!

PS: Update - Something I’m not sure I mentioned in my recording was that I finally passed the arduous 2^nd Dan Black belt testing in 2019, along with going up a grade in Jujitsu, all while focusing mostly on boxing. Please comment or message me if maybe Martial Arts is part of your 2020 plans and / or what your 2019 achievements were?

 

The Philosophy to Change Everything - (side effects include integrity and alignment). Feat Find your Courage.
