Your Best Year Starts Here! with Nigel Risner and Neil Martin

So, just before we started this particular episode, Nigel and Neil both looked at each other going, "what are we going to share?" This shows never follows a script... and for this episode it didn't even start with a theme. But with trust, anything is possible!

Want a new way to set goals (and get results)? Then maybe it's time to learn about DIRECT goals...

Last week on Your Best Year Starts Here! we talked about being a B.O.S.S (and not in favourable terms). In fact, we broke down an acronym of boss as Bully, Overpower, Scare and Shame. We spoke about why you don't want to be a boss, but you want to be a LEADER instead. So on this week's episode we breakdown exactly what it means to be a L.E.A.D.E.R.

Ever had someone tell you to do things "like a boss?". Maybe you've been told to run your business "like a boss"? Or manage your team "like a boss"? Or even live your life "like a boss"? Well, in this episode (part 1 of a 2 part special) Neil gives you a new definition of B.O.S.S. Once you hear this you might start ignoring all the "like a boss" advice and start showing up as a L.E.A.D.E.R. i...

In this episode of Your Best Years Starts Here! Neil and Nigel talk C.R.A.P. Oh, and then Nigel declares it to be one of the best episodes we've done! Don't worry, there is a lesson behind why we talk C.R.A.P. and the acronym breaks down into something really useful to help you with your marketing and communications!

The beginning of this podcast kind of needs video. As Nigel smears white stuff all over his lips and Neil cracks up with laughter you kind of wonder where will this one go. And then Nigel takes the humour to deliver a serious message (that we can all learn from)

What's you A.I.M. in life? How will you get there? In this episode Neil breaks down an acronym he first started using as part of his Natural Juice Junkie training and coaching back in 2014. Initially he just used the acronym for health but it this episode we discuss how it applies to many areas fo life.

This episode of Your Best Year Starts Here! is all about the L word. No, not love. Leadership. What does it mean to be a leader in 2020 and beyond? How do you show up? How can you lead a team without first leading yourself? Get ready for 13 minutes of all things leadership!

Here it is, episode eighty something of Your Best Year Starts Here! with Nigel Risner and Neil Martin. So what does it mean to keep it R.E.A.L.? Well first you need to relevant. That is, you need to be up to date and relevant for today's world. It doesn't matter how great your content was 2 years ago. Does it work today? Next, you need to be enthusiastic. Let's face it. If you aren't excited about...

What do you value more, a gift that cost a lot of money or one that shows somebody really thought about what to get you? In this episode of Your Best Year Starts Here! we discuss the value of making an effort (and how it far exceeds the value of opening your wallet).

And here it is... the final part of the CHAMPION model special. If you missed the CHAMPI part then go back episode 080 and catch up before you listen to this. (Seriously, you want to listen to these episodes in the order they were recorded)

Remember when Sesame Street was brought to you by different letters and numbers? Well, this week's episode of Your Best Year Starts Here is sponsored by the letters P and I... (and don't worry, we will eventually finish the CHAMPION model)

What does the A stand for? How about the M? And please, please, please tell me about the P... The answers to these questions (and probably several others) are all uncovered in today's episode of Your Best Year Starts Here!

Our listeners keep telling us they like it when we do little mini-series things to teach different systems and models. Because of that feedback we are doing another one... (if you are listening and DON'T like it when we do stuff like this please let us know). Anyway, in this episode we introduce the first 3 parts of the CHAMPION model.

This one gets a bit personal, but hey.... it is our podcast, right? We talk lockdown, changes and unexpected gifts.

Nigel "you're always late" Risner is late himself... And as this episode was recorded during lockdown he didn't even have to go anywhere to be on time!!! Let's just say this episode is payback for all the late remarks he's made about Neil.

This episode shouldn't exist. Seriously. But technology got in the way. The episode that should've been out today will hopefully be ready next week. For now, you are getting this one (recorded yesterday) instead!

Isolation ain't easy... But Neil has an inscription on his pinky ring that holds the answer!

We've talked about this before, but as part of our lockdown series it seemed more relevant than ever...

Recorded Live on Facebook, Nigel and Neil discuss life on lockdown (and the COVID-19 crisis)

“You can be the juiciest peach in the world, but you’ll still find people who don’t like peaches.”

Most people want more in life. That's perfectly normal. It might even be why you are listening to Your Best Year Starts Here! But we have a question for you... Are you focusing on WHAT you want to create or WHO you want to become?

How's your self talk? Selfishness? Self belief? Self confidence? Self esteem? Are you showing up as your MAXIMUM potential self? Or are you playing small? If you're playing small don't worry, you are NOT ALONE...

You don't always need a plan, but I read somewhere that you do always need show notes for your podcast. Not sure if that is true though or if anyone ACTUALLY reads descriptions like this one. Maybe they do, maybe they don't. Maybe if you do you will message us and tell us that you do. If nobody messages us we might just starts using random placeholder text or cheesy dad jokes instead of anything a...
