When's My Time? - Development, Inspiration And Motivation With Ozzy Eyre

We’re all winging it, so why do you think you’re the only one who is? You’ve got this – every bit as much as anyone else has; me included. And that little voice that keeps telling you that you haven’t? It’s lying to you. So, what are you waiting for? Let’s go!   Share this Post Podcast: Play in new ...

You know how, when you’re having a bad day, and everything and everyone around you just seems to suck? When all you want is for someone to put their arm around your shoulder and sympathise? Well – you may want that, but it’s the last thing you need! That’s when you need someone to step in and hold you to ...

It’s hard to believe, but we’re already at episode 100! I wanted to mark the occasion by making this really special for you – and I’ve done just that. I secured an interview with a guy who is not only just about the most successful person I know (and I mean ‘successful’ in just about every sense of the word) ...

Did you ever get that feeling you’re being watched? Well, I have news for you. The chances are very high that you are. And, no, this is not some crazy conspiracy theory – it’s a fact. Maybe it’s time to start acting like someone else is paying attention.   Share this Post Podcast: Play in new window | Download | ...

Remember the other day, when we talked about never stopping learning?

Get ready to be judged! As soon as you start on your path of living your life on purpose, people who have known you for years are going to notice the difference in you – and it’s likely to make them feel uncomfortable. And that’s a good thing…   Share this Post Podcast: Play in new window | Download | ...

It’s been said many times before – education is incredibly expensive, but it’s nowhere near as expensive as ignorance. Always make sure you end each day knowing at least one thing of value more than you did yesterday. It doesn’t have to be anything difficult – but it must be of value. And, if you’ve had to pay for it, ...

Sometimes, we get told not to take ourselves so seriously – and, to an extent, I’d agree with that. But, sometimes, I’d say we don’t take ourselves seriously enough – particularly when it comes to our own ideas, our own goals and our own dreams. So, seriously, it’s time you took yourself – and your thoughts, ideas, dreams, and goals, ...

A very different podcast today. No music, no usual opening or close. Just memories of a terrible event 50 years ago today – and a painful admission of something I said. There’s still a positive message in there, though – you just have to find it. In this episode, I read from a page on the BBC News website and ...

Don’t laugh – but I get some of the best advice and motivation from stand-up comedians! Why? Because I believe stand-up comedians are the embodiment of what it takes to step away from the norm, to live life on your own terms, and to have the confidence to trust in yourself and what you have to give. And to prove ...

We all make bad decisions – it seems we can’t help it. And I’ve probably made more bad decisions than most. But, while you most often know almost immediately when you’ve made a bad decision, do you ever consider whether there’s a recurring reason that makes you decide the way you do?   Share this Post Podcast: Play in new ...

On the day I recorded this, a minor issue at home reminded me of one of the absolute best things about turning my back on the corporate world. It may seem simple, but the more I think about it, the more grateful I am.   Share this Post Podcast: Play in new window | Download | Embed Subscribe: iTunes | ...

It's many years since I quit smoking but I still remember exactly how, after several attempts, I eventually did it. There's a bit of embarrassment involved but, if it helps you, or someone you know, quit smoking for good, I'll take one for the team :) Music: "Lachaim" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

We all have bad habits – but how do bad habits form? And what can we do to get rid of them and maybe get some better habits instead? It’s much simpler – and easier – than we pretend.   Share this Post Podcast: Play in new window | Download | Embed Subscribe: iTunes | Android | Stitcher | RSS

Do you place enough value on time? More specifically, do you place enough value on your own time? My guess is no. Time is a priceless commodity, yet we sell it every day – and we do that way too cheaply. And it’s time to stop.   Share this Post Podcast: Play in new window | Download | Embed Subscribe: ...

Listener Lucy sent me an email, explaining how she wants to make changes but is frightened of making a mistake. Luckily for Lucy, I was able to remove all doubt about her making mistakes in the future. Probably not the answer Lucy was hoping for, though!   Share this Post Podcast: Play in new window | Download | Embed Subscribe: ...

It may not be sexy to talk about 'productivity' and 'efficiency' but, when you leave corporate life and strike out on your own, squeezing every ounce out of the day is not only more important than ever - it also means you'll get to do more of the cool stuff, too :) Music: "Lachaim" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
