We all start at the beginning 08.11.2021 4:17
Hello and welcome to a another Monday nugget. Everyone starts at the beginning. No one is an expert immediately, whatever you decide to do in life, a new hobby a new job. A new vocation, a new course, you start at the beginning and whilst you might have a fantastic aptitude for something and progress very quickly, you start at the beginning. And if you going to become an expert, it is commonly. Ta...
How to turn confrontation into opportunity with 3 golden words 01.11.2021 4:52
How to turn confrontation into opportunity with 3 golden words. Confrontation is an opportunity to fact find. See it as a way of understanding the other person and if possible helping them understand you. As with all these things it’s the how that counts and this is my specialty. So how do you turn confrontation into an opportunity to understand the other person and get to a place where you’re bot...
Great questions pt2 - Honesty questions for measuring up! 25.10.2021 4:43
It's Monday again, and this is David Sammel with another Golden Nugget for the week. I hope you had a great week last week and that this week is gonna be even better. I'm going to continue the theme of great questions that we can ask ourselves in difficult situations or on different topics that affect our daily lives. Today is a lovely one, which is, "what do you do if you feeling sorry for yourse...
Great questions to ask yourself if stuck or bad thing happened part one 18.10.2021 5:00
And a Happy Monday to all this is Dave Sammel with a nugget of the week. Today I'm going to talk about a favourite. And this is great questions that we can ask ourselves in different situations. I'm going to cover two situations that happened to all of us and see if these questions can in some way, spark something in your mind that can help you. So, the first topic is “What questions can you ask y...
Steps to control fear 11.10.2021 5:45
Good day to you. This is David Sammel with another nugget of the week. Naturally, we're all free thinkers and there are plenty of people doing podcasts and blogs on all of these subjects. I'm just one extra voice in the crowd, but I hope that I can get to the crux of the matter, to the nub of the problem very quickly in a short space of time, so you can get an alternative perception that can maybe...
Why do we run away from problems? 04.10.2021 4:01
Today I'm going to talk about not only resilience but the ability of human beings to solve problems. And why is it that we try to avoid problems, when naturally we're curious. Human beings are incredibly curious from, really the day that they born. And if you watch babies, how they develop and the curiosity that they have for absolutely everything, and little kids who have amazing curiosity and tr...
How is your attitude to resilience? 27.09.2021 5:06
Hi, this is David Sammel with another podcast. I'm very tired, but I'm also very happy and delighted that Liam Broady, after our 3rd challenger together back in 2014, in Charlottesville, Virginia, lost his first final. Since then, he's made seven others and lost them all. And finally, yesterday, he won his first challenger. Now, this is what resilience is all about. We all think that we are ready....
Label for efficiency not as a one size fits all 20.09.2021 4:24
Hi, welcome to another episode of David Sammel nuggets. Today I'm going to talk to you about labelling. And we, you know, labelling can get a bad name. But actually labelling is very important to us as human beings to navigate life efficiently. When we hear that something somewhere is a good restaurant, in our minds, we are willing to try it because we heard that it's a good restaurant, and if we...
Why would you do this to yourself....? 13.09.2021 4:51
I'm going to talk about comparison, and why you would do it to yourself. I had a client who was a Harvard graduate. And he came to me feeling like he was a failure. by a lot of people's standards, he was doing very well, but compared to some of his peer group that graduated with him from Harvard, he felt like he was falling behind. And that, you know, he wasn't achieving all these amazing things t...
Managing our energy 07.09.2021 3:54
Welcome to another episode of David Sammel nuggets. And today I'm going to talk to you about managing your energy. Taylor Welch from a company called traffic and funnels, uses the Four Seasons as an analogy. And I really do like it. Because effectively spring is a time where you bring a lot of energy and you're investing in yourself, and you're putting out and trying to get things going. And that...
The power of words and tone of voice 06.09.2021 4:11
Welcome to another episode of David Sammel nuggets. Today, I'm going to talk about how we speak to ourselves. And we've all heard and got experience of knowing that the way we speak to ourselves has a huge bearing on how we feel about things, how we feel about ourselves, and about situations. But there's something else that's involved. And that's the tone of voice that we use. tone of voice is ver...

The myth of Failure 24.08.2021 4:07
Welcome to the second episode of David Sammel nuggets. I'm going to talk to you today about failure. Another myth that I wish to dispel. Surely, everything changes in life, day by day. And if you are moving forward and doing things to improve, trying to get better as a person trying to get better at whatever profession you have chosen, or if you're a student, trying to just learn and improve your...
