The Self-Science Podcast with Dr Craig Duncan

Change is part of life but often it is a struggle for us to manage the disruption. If we focus on what is in our control and our perception of the outcome of the change we will be able to cope better

A couple of episodes ago I spoke about what diet was right for you and it gained lots of positive feedback so here is one on exercise. KEY is to become a self-scientist and analyze yourself to make sure it is a program that is RIGHT for you

To embrace life we need to embrace death - Dr Craig gets deep with some very practical points on how to maximize your potential and how to develop and use a Deathbedscorecard to enhance every day

A common New Years resolution is to change your diet or lose weight BUT are you on a diet that will really work for you. Any diet will work for a short time BUT it’s really about changing your lifestyle and finding a nutritional regime that meets your needs and personality. This is why it’s vital you starting taking responsibility by becoming a self scientist and analyzing you so you get the best...

It doesn’t matter who you are one of the primary things we need in life is to feel safe and people that enhance this feeling are so valuable. It is the basic role of parents, coaches and leaders BUT sadly this does not always happen

2020 is now with us so I do hope it is a wonderful year- A few of my thoughts on managing New Years resolutions and how knowing thyself and becoming a great Self Scientist will enhance your life

In 2020 I will be releasing my book SELF SCIENCE which is all about a study of you by YOU - taking responsibility for all aspects of your life by becoming informed on how to beat manage your performance and maximize your potential

We can’t control much of life BUT we can always control our perception and that is so powerful. In this episode I discuss how if we look at our world with a different lens our life can be very different

In life if you give you will get - be kind and helpful to others as the World doesn’t revolve around us

Let’s make 2020 the year of authenticity where we remove the mask and be real - the world needs you to be you not anything else

Many people get results this time of year from high school, university, performance reviews etc BUT we need to remember it’s about the journey and doing our very very best and NOT being defined by a score

We all know we won’t live forever but why do we waste so many days by not truly living them. STOP getting too focussed on the future that you miss the lessons of today

Many of us are never happy where we are and think that somewhere else will bring us what we need. However, if we get us right wherever we are will be right.

Stop avoiding difficult situations And embrace them. It’s the only way to truly test if we are making any progress as remember anyone can be good when things are going good

Often people write to me about being lazy and demotivated. They have started a new exercise regime or diet but after a couple of weeks they stop. It’s not laziness it’s just we set ourselves up to fail by not having programs that individualized for our own personalities. Focus on being a self-scientist and small steps and build up

We all need to plan but make sure your plan is agile

I’m no fan of New Years resolutions and with less than 80 days left of 2019 you have the opportunity to make changes NOW. In fact every day you can make a change and if you fail you have another day and another Make 2019 memorable and as always it’s up to you

As humans we don’t like discussing death and our last days BUT what about if we embrace the fact our days are numbered we can start to live an amazing life

Everyone searches for a happy life and it is a never ending search. One important goal is to strive to do your very best or to maximize your potential. It’s our responsibility to do our very best

Is doing what you do having an impact for Better? In business, in conversations or wherever you are reflect on the outcome of your intervention and if you have had an Impact for Better

This is a longer episode where I captured a discussion with final year sports science students about their future and my thoughts about getting their career started.

We have so much available data and choice that it becomes difficult to make simple decisions. Decision fatigue decreases our ability to be creative and productive so try to decrease the amount of decisions you need to make each day - contact me at drcraigduncan@gmail to discuss further or join our community at www.100xcoach.com

Socrates, probably the greatest thinker in history identified that reflection was crucial to live a rewarding life. Take the time daily to reflect and you will see many positive outcomes

Leaders, coaches and all of us need good people around us. People that will give true insight rather than just saying yes to everything we do and say. Many leaders surround themselves with an echo chamber and this is the most dangerous thing you can do - it’s time to assess your staff and be very aware of those that agree with everything you do and say all of the time. If you want to maximize the...

Everyday we get to choose how we see the World it’s up to you if you view it through a positive or negative lens
