[Ep 76] No Matter What, Come Back To Your Breath

  • Reading time:3 mins read

Most of us think that just because we do something all the time, that we must be good at it. That’s not always the case. We breathe naturally throughout the day without even thinking about it but most of us never focus on the WAY we breathe. When life throws obstacles in our way, we tend to panic or become scared or worried. When we feel these emotions are breathing tends to become more rapid and shallow. That isn't a great way to deal with worries or panic. If we could become more conscious of our breath, and bring ourselves back into our bodies, that would be the best way to deal with the situation.

[Ep 75] The Classic 80/20 Rule In Relationships

  • Reading time:3 mins read

In this episode, I’ll be talking about the classic 80/20 rule in relationships by Pareto. The 80/20 rule means that 80 percent of your outcomes come from 20 percent of your inputs. This rule applies to almost everything in life, be it relationships, learning, money, work, or happiness. We see many different people running around town who appear to be busy. But most of these people tend to accomplish very little. Why? Because we waste time on tasks that our of a low value to us and don’t focus on our main goals and ambitions in life. The big goals and aims we have in life tend to be the hardest, which is why people tend to avoid them and waste time on less valuable goals.

One example of the 80/20 rule in everyday life is with relationships. In…

[Ep 74] Body Meditation To Release Trauma

  • Reading time:2 mins read

In this episode, I’ll be speaking to you about a new form of meditation I’ve started doing called TRE, Tension and Trauma Release. I found this type of mediation to be very powerful and intense and it brought out a lot of emotions inside my body that I didn’t realize I had. The exercise was created by Dr. David Berceli, Ph.D. and he created it because he noticed that during traumatic events, children shake naturally in order to release trauma and afterwards they are able to go about their day as if nothing has happened. Adults do not do this. We hold ourselves very rigid. Which means, we store years and years of trauma in our bodies, without even realizing it. Podcast Content TRE Meditation My experience doing TRE Releasing my trauma We don’t we listen to our body? When I tried this type of exercise, I realized that I had a lot of emotions inside my body that I was not…

[Ep 73] Circumstances Do Not Make The Man…

  • Reading time:2 mins read

In this episode, I’ll be talking about a quote in a book by James Allen. Circumstances do not make a man, they reveal him to himself. Our life is dictated by the way we choose to think. If our life seems like it is hard or negative things keep happening, then maybe its because you keep on expecting negative things to happen to you, and voila, negative things happen. Whatever we expect, will come true, because of the power of our mind, especially if there's strong emotion associated with it, which negative thoughts usually have. If you have a positive mindset and believe that good things will happen to you, then there is a high chance that this will happen as well. You can decide which direction you want to travel in. Podcast Content Quote by James Allen Use life as a clue Changing your mindset Rid negative people from our lives Create your perfect life through your mindset If your life…

[Ep 72] Action Matters More Than Plans

  • Reading time:2 mins read

How true is this! How many times have you planned to have a catch up with a friend or plan to go get a coffee and it never happens? Instead of wasting time making plans, why don’t we just do things? Instead of pretending like we are going to do someday far away in the future, why don't we take action right now? I was recently involved in a scavenger hunt. All of the other teams started planning. My team was the only one who did things differently - we got up right away and took action. This got me thinking. Why do some people spend time creating plans and strategies instead of taking some solid, tangible action? Actions speak louder than words, don't they? Or at least they should, in my opinion. Podcast Content Strategizing vs Actions Practice makes perfect We all need to accept our failures Stop putting people on pedestals Yes, planning has its place in our lives. Plan…

Don’t Let The Internet Rush You – No One Is Posting Their Failures

  • Reading time:4 mins read

Recently, I read this awesome quote attributed to Wesley Snipes (on his Twitter account), and I instantly copied and pasted it into my archives of useful quotes. It’s basically the title of this post – Don’t let the internet rush you; No one is posting their failures.

Boom! Bam! Bing! Absolutely on point. As soon as I read it, I got goosebumps, and that’s when I know something that I am reading (or listening to or whatever) is important. That’s how your body’s intelligence tells you that something is important. It’s not a random coincidence that your body chose that exact moment to get chilly.

The reason I wanted to write a blog post on this topic was because it’s so relevant to all of us creatives and entrepreneurs out there. All we see are the success stories. All we see are those people out there making millions and smashing every business goal set in their lifetime.

Meanwhile, we are sitting here, making piddly amounts of money, hoping that one day, our work will pay off; someday in the far, far, far off future, perhaps. (more…)

[Ep 71] When You Change the Way You Look at Things

  • Reading time:2 mins read

In this episode, I’ll be talking about a quote I read by Wayne Dyer “When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change”. I feel that this quote is so powerful and true and can be applied to every little thing in this world. If we are told something is one way, our mind doesn’t tend to question it unless we push it. Just because one-person views something one way doesn’t mean that is the correct or only way to view it. Once you change your perception on something, it can change physically or your perception of it may change. Podcast Content A quote by Wayne Dyer How perceptions can change Consciousness is very important My perception of the world I could spend a long time dissecting this quote. It really does apply to everything in this world. The way I view my own personal relationships for instance. Or, even the food I eat. We could…

[Ep 69] Deliberate Practice Makes Talent

  • Reading time:2 mins read

In this episode, I’ll be talking about talent and how many people have an idea planted in their heads that talent is something you're born with. When in fact, talent is something that is made and developed over time by passionate, hard-working, and dedicated people. From a young age, people are drilled with this idea that individuals are born talented. Once people are told that they are talented, they might start to slack, and thus, lose or forget their craft. Practice makes perfect. If you have a passion or a craft, then you should work hard at it daily to keep your craft alive.
