My goal was never to be your friend, your best mate or to aim for popularity. My goal was to be honest, raw and tell you what you need to hear rather than what you want to hear. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today I wanted to share a perspective from a white mum married to a black man and her three sons who vary in degrees of colour. It really touched me. I hope you find a slightly different perspective in this for yourself. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Uncertainty is normal and it's quite necessary for growth but it's also incredibly uncomfortable which is why we shy away from it. We aim to be certain in all situations before we move forward and the truth is life is never certain so this desire for certainty stops us from taking risks, stops us from trying new things, stops us from progressing. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tim Thomas is a good mate and someone I respect immensely. He has a very unique view on the world and thinks so incredibly deeply that it's hard not to feel inspired by him. I think you'll gain so much from this chat as I know I did. Some links from the show so you can access a chapter of Tim's book - Fight, Flight or Feel. First Chapter ‘Fight, Flight or Feel…’Written - https://yourcommando.com/tims-book-fight-flight-or-feel/;Audio Book sample - https://yourcommando.com/audio-book-sample-fight-flight-or-feel/ Be Mentored by Glenn: https://www.glennazar.com/mentor-me/ Team Training: https://www.glennazar.com/teams/ Key Notes that pack a punch: glenn@180.net.au  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Well start with yourself. Control things going on in your world and then you've at least shown you can control things in your own house. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I was always told we had to Niche to be successful in the space of coaching so what do you think my niche is? I'm going to tell you in this episode. :-) See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Back in the day humans sat around a fire and talked. As in actual words. I'd love to throw back to those days. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Now is as good a time as any to ask yourself what you're focusing on because I can assure you that you will be getting much more of that as a result. If you're focusing on how unfair life is then life is going to see more and more unfair. You will be seeking evidence for this to be true. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If you're not happy with the way you respond when you're under pressure then I urge you to not accept things as 'this is just how they are' and instead look to re-purpose your weapon. The spoken word below by Rudy Francisco really touched a chord with me. I hope you find value in it too. Rudy Francisco See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I’ve always believed that adventure is the best form of personal development there is. Who you are at the start of any adventure is very different to who you are at the end of the adventure. Yesterday we organised a local trek in Queensland to a peak called Mt Greville. It’s a 90 minute drive from Brisbane and then a 3-4 hour trek, climb, scramble – depending on your fitness level before a 90 minute drive home. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Often the obstacles we face in life aren’t external. We are the obstacle. If we can learn to get out of our own way we will achieve so much more success in life. Business success, personal success, less anxiety, less stress, more fulfillment. Right now – we are either directly creating these things or at least contributing to them. If we can make ourselves aware of this life will become a whole lot easier.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Earlier this year I did a podcast with the boys from Trade Mutt and wanted to return the favour and have them on my show. We finally made it happen. The boys dropped into Project 180 HQ and we chatted all things mental health, conversation starters, building a business with no more experience than knowing you want to make a difference. It's a great chat and I really hope you enjoy it. TRADE MUTT WEBSITESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I thought I would share the ways in which I am analysing COVID and in fact the 3-5 years prior to see where I could have done things differently to avoid certain outcomes. Then armed with that knowledge I look to see what I could do differently going forward. Knowledge is not power. Applied knowledge is power. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today I am reminded about an incident in East Timor in 1999 that recently popped back into my memory. I found it relevant to the situation we currently find ourselves in. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The comeback is always bigger than the setback but true redemption starts with you being willing to own your mistakes, decisions and results. This is something Jayden has done and continues to do. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I feel like now is a perfect time to reassess yourself and see what you've done, how you've reacted and what you could do better. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jayden Nikorima was a young football player who had it all. As a Rugby League Footballer he followed his older brother Kodi into the NRL making his debut at the World Club Challenge for the Sydney Roosters and played a fantastic game. Fast forward 18 months and a series of injuries, hanging around the wrong crowd, bad decisions around drugs and alcohol and it all came crashing down. This is part one of the Jayden Nikorima Story as told by Jayden, his Mum and Dad and his brother Kodi. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

My break was short lived but we managed to move all of our back catalogue over to the Podshape a lot faster than initially expected so we are back. Today I wanted to chat about some things I have personally learned and worked on throughout the COVID-19 experience and challenge you to think about what you learned as well. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
