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

Back in 1990, Jim McDermott gave me a sticker with a picture of a weird little doll on it. In today’s episode, I tell the story of that weird doll, and the even weirder power it has, and how you can use it for good. (BTW, I don’t believe in ‘woo-woo’!)   Share this Post Podcast: Play in new window ...

It may seem like I lose it in this one – talking about potatoes and cantaloupes – but there is a point! These days we’re conditioned to expect instant gratification, but the good stuff – the really good stuff – takes a little longer. But, boy, is it worth the extra effort and the wait!   Share this Post Podcast: ...

  Well, that was a heavy week! But it still ended on a high – and during it, I got to talk to some people who really wanted to help, I gained a new listener, and I discovered a whole new workout!       Share this Post Podcast: Play in new window | Download | Embed Subscribe: iTunes | ...

Over the last couple of days, I’ve spent more hours than I care to count talking to tech support about issues on my website – and even more hours on hold just waiting to speak to them. It can’t be easy working in tech support – everyone you deal with is already having a bad day.  There are so many ...

Thought I was having some tech challenges yesterday - but now I look back on that as 'The Good Old Days'! Even when things are going badly, though, never lose site of the goal... ...and, remember, you will always be able to find a lesson and something of value - and I found plenty here :)   Music: "Lachaim" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

There’s a big difference between being broke and being poor – but most people think they’re the same thing. Clearly, you don’t want to be broke – but, even if you’re broke, you can still avoid being poor. In today’s episode, I talk about why it’s important to your future success that you do just that.   Share this Post ...

If you’re going through a rough patch – which, as an entrepreneur, will happen – it’s easy to forget to take time out to show gratitude. But leaving gratitude out of your life is a big mistake. So I took time out on a Saturday to show my gratitude to you.   Share this Post Podcast: Play in new window ...

It’s all very well having folks tell you to ‘let things go’ but what if you’re the sort of person that doesn’t find that easy? And what if you’re the sort of person who remembers an incident years later and still gets wound up by it? What then?   Share this Post Podcast: Play in new window | Download | ...

If you truly want success, you must first work out how you can achieve significance – because, without gaining significance, you will never know true success.   Share this Post Podcast: Play in new window | Download | Embed Subscribe: iTunes | Android | Stitcher | RSS

If you’re going to break free and create yourself a new life, you’re going to have to get used to showing your knickers! All will be explained – it’s OK, though, I’m speaking metaphorically...

In the last couple of episodes, we’ve looked at what success means – at least, to me! In this third podcast for today, we look at how someone else promotes their very different view of success… …and there’s a word of warning there for any innocent abroad.

When you begin to look, you’ll be amazed at the opportunities there are to find success – in many different forms – and at the opportunities you’ll have to display your courage. FOOTNOTE: The courage mentioned in this podcast is not mine – and I just got to share in the success.  The snake was very real, though, and she ...

Sometimes it can be difficult to get a clear idea of what success looks like – particularly if you haven’t had any for a while.  But, if you don’t, how will you ever know when you achieve it? Here’s a simple idea to help you identify what success looks like to you.   Share this Post Podcast: Play in new ...

Today was a good day for learning – and for discovery. Sometimes, you have to recognise when things are good enough, and go with them – and you should certainly never let a challenge stop your progress!   Intro and Outro music: Share this Post Podcast: Play in new window | Download | Embed Subscribe: iTunes | Android | Stitcher ...

Yesterday, I promised that today’s podcast would be all about pitfalls you may want to avoid when you decide to break away from your job. As I was recording, I realised this might come in handy for David Cameron, too – hope you don’t mind if he listens in!   Music credit: Share this Post Podcast: Play in new window ...

While you’re focusing on where you want to be in the future, take a couple of minutes to be grateful for where you are now. Oh! And there’s new intro music and a photo of our dog Jack as the artwork!  And, just in case you download the podcast from here, rather than Stitcher or iTunes, I’ve posted his pic ...

When you’re on a path, it’s easy to get sidetracked and taken away from your goal. It’s even easier if you happen to like the person doing the sidetracking! Be clear, stay focused, and learn when it’s right to say ‘No’ (even to someone you like!) Share this Post Podcast: Play in new window | Download | Embed Subscribe: iTunes ...
