Where's your head at? Understanding the power is in the mind is as valuable as understanding HOW to deliver power into the mind? How do we do that? Well, it's not what you think. It's what you do. Physically. Literally. Move your body, nourish your body, set your physical environment, and you will win the battle of the mind. I guarantee it…

Ahh yes the illusion and relativity of time and the experiences we have! Seconds can feel like hours, and hours feel like minutes, depending on how you see it and what's going on in your world.

TRIBES! Big, small, you are part of many more than you think, and this has a big influence over your environment and your experiences. Are they good environments though serving you well and are you moving forward with loving experiences of challenge yes, but more importantly growth, fulfillment and support? The flock is nice, cosy, warm, comfortable. Never mind the wolves in sheeps clothing or forfeiting the potential you have to create a big impact in this world… You don't need to cut your friends away or leave a "tribe", simply rise up, lead your own life and stay aligned with your standards and growing and you will create the environment and the tribe of those connected to you the right way.

Ep 29. How have you been triggered? Why? Where has that belief system come from? What is this doing to you? Who are you becoming? Life is choice and ultimately whilst the definition of Reacting and Responding is virtually the same it's the speed and timing to the stimulus you're exposed to that causes you to react and be triggered into "choosing" to express a thought, feeling and belief. But this isn't as concrete as it seems, and you don't have to let other people control your life, which is exactly what is happening. Join me on this episode to discover how you can free yourself and be liberated to adjust course and take actions that serve you better and at a higher level.

Ever have that feeling of uncertainty? Not sure how it will play out, if it will pay off, what you're even doing? That was me.

Despite rising up and crushing all the goals in front of me time and time again, DURING the process I was never completely sure. I just never gave up. And that is what makes all the difference in life between the few percent that are happy, and the many who are not…

Ep 26. Are you lost in Space? Every second of the day there is a transaction, a transfer of energy that occurs, with other people or even alone. From one environment to the next we are exposed to opportunities to recognise the stimulus that is in front of us. This recognition moves us into the choices, state and response that creates a higher level of understanding and experience that serves you more often than not. And serves those around you. Discover how you can have a higher level of awareness that helps move you from being reactive, triggered and a victim into true leadership and a victor.
