The Self Improvement Project

Today is all about the bigger questions. What is the difference between true change and false change? Are we falling for the same traps or do we just not realise or understand what we truly want? I discuss what we need to do to get where we want to quicker (and in a more fulfilling way obviously!)

We don't spend enough time in our lives thinking about how we can better serve the world. We don't know the benefits it can bring to our individual lives. It may sound selfish but it's true. We need to serve others to have ever lasting purpose in the world. I share a perspective today that will hopefully benefit you and the world you can impact. As always, let me know what you think :) Become a Pa...

Hey everyone, thanks for writing to me :) Today is all about the importance of struggle. Just some surface thoughts around how we can use it straight away to benefit our lives but perhaps some deeper thoughts on it coming another time.  Essentially, we need it. But we have to own it. Only we can choose, nobody else. And it's important to appreciate in the midst of struggle, you need to give y...

One of my roles is to tell you to 'do less' and 'slow down', however today I want to emphasise the importance of balance. As humans, we need to feel important and feel wanted. That is an innate desire. When we seek too much peace or 'do nothing', we are too extreme on one side. There are times when busyness is good for us. It pushes and stretches us. Turning up is underrated when you can add so mu...

Time well spent is valuable, but how often do we step back and think about how we're spending it. We end up living too much for others rather than focussing on what truly matters to us. We tend to go for survival over thriving. Give yourself a bit more permission today to choose how you want to spend your time. As simply or as busy as you like :) Become a Paid Supporter of the Podcast - https://an...

We live in a world where we think we know what we want but we don't. We play the blind game of comparison to trick ourselves into thinking what a perfect self and life should be. But you need to be less perfect. You need to embrace the flaws of life to become imperfectly you. No-one is better at being you than you. So today is about thinking about what you're good at and becoming great at living t...

Hello everyone :) We never take enough time to truly recognise who we are and the journey we have been on. Today is a sign to and permission to step back and recognise the significance of embracing who we are and the path we're on. We spend too much time caught up in everything that it's time we stopped to breathe a little more. I hope you enjoy and as always write to me with your thoughts :) Beco...

The older you get, the sooner you'll realise how quick life goes. Regret is one thing I want to help others not have!

We waste years of our life trying to be as productive as possible. But here's the spoiler - it never ends. Stop wasting time on things that don't matter to you and take time to reflect on how you really want to live. This is the only way you'll live a meaningful life :) Become a Paid Supporter of the Podcast - https://anchor.fm/the-self-improvement-project/subscribe Today's episode is sponsored by...

Today is all about the benefits of pain! I know right?! Who'd have thought it was such a good thing.

Today is all about reducing our desires, I recently learned this the hard way and it took a reset of my mindset to actually realise how appreciative of the life I have.

Independent living isn't something we talk about enough. No, I'm not saying move off-grid or any extremes. I'm talking about human nature, where we need to live more scarcely in order to find meaning day to day. We live in the land of everything. No wonder we have no meaning in our lives.
