During my travels I've had the privilege to be invited to see life from cultures far from my own. Sometimes this has resulted in being shock with discovering someone you met married in their mid teens, has worked full time since they were even younger and eat foods far far different from our own. Not everything should be accepted as there are any parts of many cultures, our own included, that does...

One of the most important skills that we as humans use is Sales. Whether we are aware of it or not we all need to sell be it in a job interview or when we are meeting a new romantic, business or friendship interest. For those not involved in Sales and Marketing for their day jobs it can often go unnoticed. Some people may sell well in some domains and struggle in others. For me I've been working o...

In todays episode I pull out lessons from taking a goal to fruition and reflect on how the last 10%, the final milestone, was arguably where I encountered the most learnings and ran into unexpected challenges. This is where most people quit and this is why you shouldn't! Want to listen to more episodes? Visit https://www.monologuesbyhasi.com/ or subscribe on your favourite podcast app. To get in t...

After having been running (distances 5 km and above) for over a year now I pulled off a personal feat shaving 10 min off my original City2Surf time finishing the beautiful 14 km's in a tad under 81 minutes. Whilst I'm clearly not an athlete I'm rather proud of where I've come from and am probably in the best shape of my life as I approach 30. Taking running more seriously this year has left me wit...

I've often found myself being a prisoner to expectations I've created which seem to conflict with what nature has in plan. In this episode I reflect on this very statement in light of my last few weeks in Japan and plans going astray. Want to listen to more episodes?

In 494 BC the Roman Plebians, the commoners, made a move out of their city to Mons Sacer causing the function of their capital to halt and the ruling classes to pay attention to the demands of the commoner. This was known as Secessio Plebis and occurred many another 4 times over the next 2-3 centuries. Seemingly controlled by lobbyists, both corporate, globalist and foreign, are western government...

In this episode a misunderstood order of Takoyaki here in Hiroshima has me reflecting on the wasted opportunity to learn the non-career oriented skills that make like rich such as language learning and playing a musical instrument. As always with the Young Male Advice columns I make these because I am speaking to a younger me as much older person. Whilst this message can never be delivered to it's...

The 15-minute minimum I discussed is based on a NYU study showing 13-minutes as the minimum effective dose for a whole host of benefits in non-meditators (J.C. Basso et al. 2019) . I've rounded this up by a couple of minutes to ensure you get the most out of your sessions. To learn more about Vipassana and find a course near you visit  https://www.dhamma.org/en/index.

I recently read 'Die With Zero' by Bill Perkins and in this episode discuss how I've reflected on this book based on what I've experienced myself with me and family as well as conversations I've had with others regarding life experiences and retirements and how this recent reminder has helped me make a few great decisions that will pay memory dividends in the future - an investment class those wit...

In todays episode I make an analogue between nation states and cell membranes* with respect to current state of migration in the western world. We are currently seeing a rise in racism and xenophobia with movements on the right gaining traction and the 'others' being singled out. Is there a valid reason behind this shift? I make the argument that it is indeed valid though often misdirected. I thin...

"It's so unfair" is probably something we ought to cut out for our vocabularies. After being prompted externally and reflecting on how I've allowed this to creep in I reflect on the why wanting 'fairness' for the vast majority of us who are privileged to simply listen to podcasts in English is fundamentally flawed.

Last week I released my 100th podcast episode since starting Monologues by Hasi over 2 years ago. Throughout that period I've learnt a lot by engaging in the process of creating content and getting it out there. In this episode I condense some of the key learnings.

Charlie Munger, billionaire investor and vice-chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, was a large proponent of 2nd (and beyond) order thinking about the consequences of our decisions and the consequences of those consequences and so on as a good process for effective decision making. In this episode I highlight how the December 2017 changes to Australia's marriage act to legalise same-sex marriage may ina...

In the world of neurochemistry buy now pay later solutions (BNPL) exist very much like they do in the world of finance - we call them intoxicants and one of the most commonly consumed globally is alcohol. After almost half a decade of not drinking alcohol I did and given the perspectives that I have gained from a past of heavy drinking, a long period of sobriety and now a drink following immense p...

A simple high value add you can make to your lives and those around you especially in 3rd places where you neither live or (explicitly) work is to be the person to say 'Hello' and introduce yourself. I've been more reliant on on doing this to make connections since travelling solo for the past few months and will definitely be incorporating this into my day to day going forward. In this episode I...

The current phase western civilisation is going through involves pitting men against women which is, in my very humble opinion, incredibly detrimental to our society. As someone who lives in and benefits from the western world, which has flaws like any society, it is in my very selfish self interest to speak about this and improve the system from within as opposed to those who seek to tear it down...
