Another FB post this week. If anything matters then everything matters. If something is important to you then everything you do around that thing matters. The big things and the little things.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Born and bred in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, Warren was the son of small business owners. Mentored by one of the best farmers in the district, Warren honed his skills and, by the age of 22, he had purchased his first farm. This gave Warren an opportunity to reinvent himself. A direction, a career path: he was going to pursue his father's dream of becoming a Farmer.  Warren Davies is not just any average Farmer. There is more to this farmer than meets the eye. His eventful life has tested his Resilience, Persistence and Determination, had a massive impact on his young family, relationships and finances and made Warren the Farmer he is today - The Unbreakable Farmer.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week I'm sharing a post I put on a faccebook a few months ago because it really resonates with me to this day and I think you might find a little something in it as well.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When you love what you do it shows. Your passion will be seen in the quality of the work that you deliver.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week is the big 100. I am forever grateful for your continued support and also for the back up of the man behind the sound on the show Josh Burton. There's no way I have done this show without him and there would be no purpose to the show without you. This week I am hitting you with my favourite quotes and giving you some context - some meaning - behind them. Something to explain why they mean so much to me. On with the show.

If you find yourself in a fair fight then you didn't plan your mission properly. Life isn't meant to be fair. Stack the odds in your favour. Plan - do the work - execute.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There’s a real tragedy in a parent outliving their child. This week I sat down and chatted to Wayne Chase about a tragedy he has endured where his 15yo son Mitchell was killed in a motorbike accident. Wayne has dealt with the tragedy, the trauma, the heartbreak that I could barely imagine but know comes with such an event. He has come out the other side and is writing a book called All Heart which is a tribute to the heart and will to live that Mitch displayed despite the injuries that would ultimately take his life. You can follow Wayne and the All Heart Project on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/allheart15/  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week we're chatting about commitment to your goals. Stop being an ASKHOLE and do what you say you're going to do. If you don't know what an ASKHOLE is then google it.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week I'm doing something a little different in that I'm answering some questions and responding to some feedback that has come in. I get contacted regularly but wanted to respond to these ones publicly because I felt there was value in it for everyone else as well. I trust you enjoy something a little different.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week I'm all about consistent action. Not action when you feel great. Not action when things are going your way. Action NO MATTER WHAT. That's how you achieve things in life. By taking on action on the days when you don't feel so great.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What I really wanted to talk about this week was IMPACT. What impact do you make on the world or the people around you? Have you ever considered this? I know I do. Plenty of people tell me they’re no-one so it’s really up to them or within their capability to make an impact. I call BS on that. We all make an impact on the people around us and sometimes to the broader community without necessarily realising it. But what if we went out of our way to make a conscious impact on the people around us? What if we believed in ourselves enough to know that we matter, what we does matters and don’t let the focus be so much on who we’re not but instead who we are.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Want to get more done and stop wasting time? Then keep the main thing the main thing. Don't get distracted by every shining light. Don't chasing every car that comes by your yard. Focus.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Often people ask how to make life easier. I think the higher quality question would be how to make life better.  Adventure certainly does that so I thought I’d chat about how and why Adventure can benefit you and your life.   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on the Mid Week Motivation I want you to get clear on the standards you set and accept for yourself the people you surround yourself with. People around you will treat to the level that you allow. If you find you're being mistreated then the onus is on you to do something about it. You set the standard that is acceptable to you. Don't ever expect others to put a higher value you on you then you're willing to.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week I wanted to dig deep on a topic that I feel sits at the heart of people being scared to have a go at chasing their dreams. OTHER PEOPLES OPINIONS. So I share some strategies around getting over what other people think, finding the right people to care about and how you can increase your self-belief and self-confidence. Strap yourself in and get ready to let go of the fear of other people's opinions.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I recently read a control study where they were looking to find out if there was any difference between setting a goal, working with a team all setting a goal or writing your goals down. The written goals certainly were more likely to see the control group achieve the goal but the statistics behind just how powerful written goals were was quite astonishing. After listening to this weeks Mid Week Motivation I think you will be compelled to write your goals down.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Have you ever completed a triathlon? Do you consider yourself a triathlete? No. Well Tom Dunn doesn't consider himself a triathlete either but he's about to embark on the longest triathlon ever run on the Australian Continent and he's doing it solo. 3,780km Bike Ride 910km Run 135km Swim What drives a young man to do something that seems so close to impossible? Tom is raising money for the Melbourne Indigenous Transition School and he wants to show these young kids that anyone can do anything if given the opportunity. I think you're going to love his story.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mediocrity is a standard that society is all too willing to accept. Not us though. You cannot he mediocre for success.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There are a lot of strings to the bow of what makes Alyssa unique and such a high achiever. Just over two months ago she successfully summitted Mt Everest from Tibet making it her second time to stand on the summit of Mt Everest. She has made the summit at 19yo and 21yo. Alyssa has successfully climbed peaks in Russia, Africa, South America, Nepal and Australia. She has completed the Kokoda Track eight times. But what makes here tick? What's her training program like? What side of Mt Everest is harder? How does she feel being an inspiration to younger generations? We tackle all of these questions and more in a great conversation for Episode 93 of the Building Better Humans Project podcast.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
