Today's ponderings…

How closely is success and communication skills linked?

Success and communication…

First up… communication is a TWO way street… many people confuse communication as ‘saying’ something…

However…

Alignment... a huge blocker... and also huge power source… business life Apr 14, 2022

Alignment... a huge blocker... and also huge power source…

One of the biggest things I notice when helping people with their offer is Alignment...

From 2 angles... to themselves and their customers...

To the people I love to help this is a huge thing... to others it is just...

Puzzle of life adventure life Nov 28, 2021

Here in Australia we are facing a two class citizen situation. Maybe it is similar all around the world. Second class, however... this is the big one... Previously ‘second class’ meant ‘less than’ a first class citizen. However, I think this is something to check in with....

Keep dreaming...just keep flapping adventure life Nov 28, 2021

I’m combining two sayings here.

First, there is a saying, the best way to predict the future is to create it. Maybe it was Abraham Lincoln.

The second saying is along the lines of... if you want to create real change, you must be honest with your current reality and see...

It will all be ok life Nov 09, 2021

The Horizon... That magical place. The destination to which we can aim, but never reach...

Somewhat like perfection too. It is never attainable. However, focussing on the horizon has HUGE benefits. Especially in rough waters. Both physically and metaphorically too.

My 3 biggest values... life Nov 08, 2021

My 3 biggest values...

HEALTH - LOVE - FREEDOM

These are things you need to work hard for and DO NOT come easily or quickly. ANY promise of quick results are simply false or shallow versions of these.

True health... deep true health... where does that come from? think...

What are we here for? life Oct 29, 2021

Life huh... What are we here for?

Somewhere on the timeline that will be clear... However, I feel that it is our search... this human experience on this living earth... at this time... A wonderful living breathing earth... life... oceans... forests...

What will you take...

Full circle and a bit more! adventure business life Oct 14, 2021

A super cool thing just happened! Something just came full circle and a bit more!

So, inside The Offer Academy Coaching Program learning materials I talk about the concept of:

Selling to your FUTURE FRIENDS...Yep, your FUTURE FRIENDS... not your current friends...

So how do...

Listen to your heart and mind... business life Sep 25, 2021

About 10 years I came across a way of thinking.

How I remember it is...

Everybody is always doing the best with what they currently have or know to be true. My understanding was, it extended to so many things in life. Even the person stealing things from your backyard.

Imagine for a moment that...

In between known worlds... adventure business life Sep 22, 2021

For the last 10 years, I have been explaining a concept to my friends and clients about the feeling of nervousness and anxiety of change. For me, I see in pictures, stories, and knowledge come to me as visuals and this has always been very clear.

Change for me is like travelling across the flat...

I love thinking, maybe too much... business life Sep 13, 2021

I love thinking... maybe too much...

But I do love it when sometimes the solution is the opposite of what might seem an obvious first solution. I find this the most fun and I have been doing this for 20ish years or so.

Firstly with software programming. Trying to look at things from every angle...

Life’s constant juggle adventure business life Sep 01, 2021

Life’s constant juggle between enjoying the moment and delayed gratification... I have done a combination of these through the years.

When I was young, I went to university and at the same time played tennis full time. I also wrote software to sell and make money in my spare time....

One thing is for sure... adventure business life Aug 31, 2021

One thing is for sure... How you treat other fellow humans especially friends will last a lifetime...

Will you hold some space for them?

Open your heart for them?

Will you listen to them?

Will you be there for them?

You do not have to agree with someone...

Breathe, smile, connect, love... business life Aug 28, 2021

There are lots of games where the people who can hold their breath the longest win.

Some are actual air, some are metaphorical air... Underwater ice hockey is actual breath holding. Free diving also actual breath holding - Stig Åvall Severinsen. Spear fishing... actual...

Are we all coaches to someone? business life Aug 24, 2021

Coaches... are we all coaches?

I believe the most amazing coaches (and friends) have one thing in common. They observe a situation where they can give guidance and do something magical.

They first see the situation through the eyes of the other person. First, they understand...

One of the things I love.... adventure life Aug 23, 2021

One of the things I love is the brain and how it works. Years ago I was listening to a wonderful friend Ruth Buczynski talk about neural plasticity. What I took away from the conversation was the importance of learning physical skills. I understood that it helps the brain not get into a groove...

Morning vibes... life Aug 17, 2021

Something lifted last night and again today...

Something feels lighter...

A peacefulness... or a calm...

Maybe permanent or maybe a calm before a storm...

The physical earth feels quieter today than previous weeks. It has been moving. Being stretched and pulled, the grinding...

One the things I love is human psychology and I was just reminded of this aspect of social proof or social influence.

I studied psychology and cognitive science at university while doing my information technology degree. I use that understanding every day in my new work of helping people...

Today’s pondering... business life Aug 08, 2021

Today’s pondering...

Imagine if the decision makers at this time were impacted in the same proportions to those to who the decisions impact.

For example... Their weekly salary changed at the same proportion to the whole population. A drop of 5,10,50%, or their investments...

What I love about helping people... business life Aug 05, 2021

One of the things I love about helping people add another income to their life is how simple the math is.

I help people create offers to share their knowledge with people who need it the most. But what I love is the impact on people’s life from a "time" and 'living" perspective....

Very grateful... life Jul 25, 2021

Something I always refer to when understating peoples decisions is that, a headache tablet is very easy to sell...

The person is in pain and will pay almost any cost to have their headache taken away...

One of the hardest thing is insurance. Because that is a decision made...

Life is about LIVING... life Jul 25, 2021

Aussies... Are we just convicts?

The country was founded on bringing convicts by boat over to this island and taking away the land of the original inhabitants of this land and making them slaves to a new agenda with guns and force.

So, as a thought exercise if that were...

Pretty fun day! life Jul 13, 2021

Today I had a pretty fun and profound experience. I experienced something like no other!

Last minute decision to enjoy a quick part of the day on the golf course. The one only a few hundred meters from our place and also one that dad used to love to play. It’s a former PGA course and is now...

Ever heard of the term Jump the shark? life Jul 13, 2021

Have you ever heard of the term “Jump the shark”?

If not, my interpretation is, basically when a storyline does something way beyond the current storyline that is becomes unbelievable, which I’m turn makes you question and doubt all that came before.
