To Succeed... Just Let Go

This week we're exploring personal relationships - from the one-to-one relationship we have or would like to have with our nearest and dearest to the often fraught relationships between parent and child, whether you're on or the other! We're exploring relationship dynamics at the psychological level, whilst taking an all-important detour into the realms of quantum physics, bio-mechanics and bio-el...

Today we're teasing out what I mean when I say that we're at our best when we're not thinking. Are we saying that we need to stop all thinking? What are different kinds of thinking? And can we think clearly when we're using our minds normally? The answer to that last question above is a resounding "No" - and that's why we need to tease things out in this episode! But we go further, we explore the...

If you're using your mind normally, you really haven't got the first clue about what's actually going on. You've no idea who you really are and you certainly have no inkling of what you could achieve or what's even possible and how easy, effortless, it could all be. If you're using your mind normally. Now - and I actually mean right now - there is a different way. But, in order to encourage you to...

As someone said to me a couple of days ago, "It's been far too long since you recounted a Normal Crazy People Story to us!" - they used to be a regular Thursday morning feature!! So, this week, we start with a little adventure into what passes for the real world but is, in fact, a million miles removed. But the stories with which this episode starts are told for a reason... we all tell ourselves s...

It's not some catchy title that I've simply slapped on this week's episode - it is a well-researched scientifically validated phenomenon... people in flow have more time than the rest of us. More time to do just what they need to do, in just the right way, with little or no effort. And the wonderful thing is that any of us - and that includes you - can experience this phenomenon and, like most phe...

How many times have I heard "Oh, I couldn't do that"; "I could never say that"; "What would people think of me if I actually did that?" Basically, we all think that "Little Old Me" is not up to it. And, if we think that, we'd be right - on a variety of fronts. First of all, if you think that something is unrealistic it is! If you think you can't, you won't. More importantly, regardless of what you...

Are you in a comfort zone? How comfortable is your comfort zone? How uncomfortable would you feel if you had to step out of your comfort zone to do something - that you probably know you need to do - that, you think, requires a little but of courage? The normal mind is stuck in an all too uncomfortable place which it thinks is OK because most people are in the same boat! That's why so many people...

First of all, a heads up - this Episode coincides with the launch of a series of Free Online Events that I'm hosting, starting Monday September 8th. Sign up is now open - you can do that in the link in your podcast player. And, if you're listening after the 8th., the whole series of events, video-based, live Zooms (available on playback) and downloads will be available online until September 18th....

The short answer to the question posed in the title of this week's episode is... "No"! But, like everything else in life, there's a longer answer - a longer one but a simple one. This episode explores how to get what's best for you in life, starting right away - not what you want, not what you think you want, not what you've been struggling to achieve or do in or with your life... what's best for...

Yes, this episode hasn't just got a checklist - it has an ideal checklist for your ideal life. A shopping list, if you will! But that's not what this episode is about!! We're going back to basics to remind ourselves of the importance, primary importance of what we all must do everyday so that everything on the checklist "falls into our lap". What's that? Meditate. I know, you may be sick hearing i...

After the reaction that I received to last week's episode, we're continuing our journey into the wonders of synchronicity or, in fact, the everyday nature of synchronicity when... When what? How do we create synchronicity rather than hang around waiting for it to happen? What is the secret to experiencing regularly occurring life-changing moments? This episode, once again using my own personal exp...

Many people have asked me to talk about my own experience of synchronicity or, should I say, the many synchronicities that I have experienced and acted upon and how they have been turning points in my life and, indeed, the lives of my loved ones. So, this episode is full or examples of how synchronicity works in practice and what we have to do to facilitate their flow. One of the key things that w...

Yes, you have a heat-seeking missile at your disposal - all you have to do is allow your intuitive self point it in the right direction and... it will deliver what's best for you. Perhaps I should have actually called this episode "How to Get What's Best for You" because that is exactly what it is about - step-by-step. Actually, there are only two steps. You may have heard me refer to what I call...

There is precious little benefit in being totally focused in the quiet of your own private space first thing in the morning, if you're all over the place within a few minutes of encountering the inevitable... a normal crazy person! So, this week's episode delivers precisely what the title promises. We're walking through the day, one step at a time, from the moment you awaken to the time your head...

Well, now... if you're not, for example, already a client or an online program owner, this episode could be the start of something new - what's been described as the "Deep Joy" of your life, right here, right now - regardless of what's going on around you. A big promise? Yes, it is and, yes it is a promise. But it's not a guarantee - you've to make the little choice or two that I suggest in this e...

OK, the title sounds a little bit like a well-known song - but so what, the world's a different place, you're a different person, when you want for nothing. And, truth is, when you're "in the zone", you do want for nothing, you don't have a care in the world, all is well. What a different world we'd live in if enough of us were in that state of mind because state of mind it is. This episode explor...

Being anywhere other than here and now means that you're missing your life. Thinking that you need to go back to the past to figure out how you've got to where you are or who you are (or could be) is, therefore, a waste of your time. Or much, much worse - revisiting the past amounts to reliving the past and enabling your past weigh more heavily on your present. The past is a foreign country and yo...

This is an episode full of practical tips - quick tips that you can start putting into practice today - that will enable you immediately experience happiness, peace of mind and what one of my Online Program Owners calls "Deep Joy". I present you with a choice: do you want to be happy or would you prefer worry, anxiety and stress? Do you want to live your life properly, like you mean it, in the mom...

Or, more importantly, the things that we can do for ourselves! In this episode, by way of introduction, we explore the madness of the normal human condition, as a result of which, we impede ourselves, constrain ourselves, belittle ourselves and, indeed, do ourselves actual physical harm. But, if you're the problem, you are also the solution. Or, to put it another way, if your thoughts are the prob...

What? You don't have an everyday life? That's right and that's what this episode explores. Nothing is as it seems to the thinking mind: from anger to stress, to jealousy to, well the very reality of the here and now. As a result, we're normally caught in a reactionary loop where things go from bad to worse and "not so bad" is about as good as it gets. Until you stop reacting. Yes, that is what thi...

You'll learn exactly how to set your mind to achieve your goals, objectives, dreams and "perfect moments" in this episode. And, once your mind is set, what you have to do to get there becomes effortless. As you'll discover, you don't need to know what you need to do, it will become obvious what's best to do as you effortlessly dance through each day, like a ballerina, without putting a foot wrong....

Well now, in Episode #213 we explore the essence of life, the essence of living life to the full. We explore peace of mind and what I describe as "the flat calm of being", of not having a care in the world. And, as you'll discover, it's all about perspective or, perhaps, not having one - now there's a thought! Which leads us back into the world of thought - the world of not being, the world that o...

Has it taken me until Episode 212 to explain the step-by-step actions and benefits of meditation? Well, you'll have to listen to really find out but... This episode explains the science of meditation - forget the spiritual or religious, we're talking hard science. And we're talking about the impact that an understanding of the hard science has on your understanding and experience of meditation and...

Which is easier, to think about doing something, to annoy yourself that you're thinking about doing it instead of doing it, to get frustrated and, perhaps, even guilty that you haven't done what you know you need to do or... to just do what you need to do? Which is easier? You know that answer. What you don't know is that everything, other than doing what needs to be done, is the result of thought...

Now there's a title! This episode covers a multitude but, in essence, goes straight to the heart of why we, as humans, are losing our humanity or, as one scientist puts it, "losing our soul". This hasn't got an awful lot to do with Artificial Intelligence. Instead, it's got to do the "Knowledge" or the accumulation of what passes for knowledge. In essence, it's all about how thinking divorces from...
