As is often the case, I sat down to record one episode and an entirely different episode emerged... it's called being in flow!
So, whilst the above title is spot on, I explore a variety of ways in which we normally try to succeed or excel, which simply do not work - or worse set us up for disappointment or failure - as an introduction to the last ten minutes of this episode when... you get exactly what it says on the tin!
What does that mean? You're getting simple instruction in proper meditation. You're getting a refresher in the importance of proper meditation and we're more deeply exploring what passes for living when you've not embarked on a program of proper meditation.
This episode goes around the houses just a bit before getting to the point but, as with life itself, the journey is what's important. Listen carefully, you never know when you'll have an "Aha Moment".
-
Well, now - there's so much in this episode!
We debunk the idea that you can get more out of life by working harder, not smarter. You don't have to work at all.
We get to understand your life's purpose. Yes, I already know it!
We deal with the confusion created by too many apparent bright ideas and we understand how, when we take our foot off the gas, we accelerate.
Yes - the whole process, the flow of synchronicities, the abundance of real-life, everyday results, everything accelerates when you ease up.
What do we mean by easing up? Well, you really should invest just over half an hour of your time by listening to this episode - it may be the one that tips you over that tipping point into living right now like you mean it.
-
Episodes manquant?
-
There's so much in this episode: from reflecting on how you react or how you've noticed that you're less prone to reaction, to considering how you say and do what you might previously have been coy about saying and doing; from how your doing mind looks after you, does things for you to how your automatic mind does things to you.
We explore the hows of looking after your moment-to-moment behaviour, allowing yourself make the right choices and decisions and being agile to get the most out fo the moment.
And we highlight the significance of the apparent insignificance of the moment, the small actions, the little choices.
More than that, we realise that the future starts from where you are and that there's no merit in revisiting the un-undoable past, because... the past does not belong to you. You really need to listen to understand what I mean by that!
All in all, in this episode we take another one of those proverbial steps in the right direction.
-
Which of the above three words is bad?
In this episode we explore and explode some of the myths about goal-setting and, then, how get a feel for what is best for you.
Yes, I did not say what you "want" - we can have so much more out of life than we think we want.
We investigate how, in clearing your mind, everything becomes clearer: your own self-worth, your perspective of reality, the things that are most important to you and what your heart truly desires. Big stuff, the stuff that a great life is made of.
But, then, there comes a very important word of caution which could be summed up as follows: play your cards close to your chest.
Yes, all that - and more - is to be explored in this episode.
-
You never know when you're going to learn something new, just like we can never anticipate having an Aha Moment - if we could it wouldn't be an Aha Moment!
And we never know who's going to teach us - learning comes from the most unlikely places.
In this episode we explore signs, signposts, opportunities and synchronicities - all easily spotted, embraced and followed... when we are present.
Are we talking about "presence of mind" - much more than that. Are we talking about "mindfulness" - well that's just a means to an end or, should I say, a means to ever moving forward because it's not the "end" that matters, it is the now.
A couple of everyday practical examples will explain how flow works in practice, how energy works in what our normal way of thinking would consider to be mysterious ways.
And how, when we just let go - to coin a phrase! - all good things "fall into our lap" - effortlessly, of course.
-
One of the most difficult things in life to say - and, in not saying it, a rock on which we so often perish... "NO".
We get into so much trouble by not saying what needs to be said because we're afraid.
What will others think of us? We'll debunk that nonsense in this episode!
How could I get away with saying that? We'll deal with this too.
And, then, of course, we'll explore how life is so much simpler and easier - to the point of effortless - when we say and do what needs to be said and done.
And it's not just what you say, it's how you say it. Will you need to worry about how you go about doing that? Will you need to have a plan for it? No... it'll all just come out in the right way, at the right time, when the opportunity occurs, if (and only if) we're tuned in, fully present and in control of our own state of mind.
You're never wrong saying the right thing. This is how to do it effortlessly.
-
There's so much in this episode: from love and self-love to unconditional love, from being busy-busy-busy to... doing nothing.
Doing nothing: giving yourself the mental and spiritual space to experience clarity of mind, presence of mind, an ability to effortlessly do and say the right things and, most of all, a deep understanding of what your big dreams might be.
Yes, we're following on from last week's episode when we started exploring the necessity to "dream big dreams" - a necessity because, if you don't, you're missing out on the grandeur of your own life.
I explain exactly what I mean by "doing nothing" - perhaps the most powerful form of meditation that we can practice. A practice that provides the inner calm necessary for us not to have a Eureka moment, but a whole flood of Eureka moments.
And you just might discover that doing nothing is the most important thing you could ever do!
-
What does peace of mind mean to you? How about being carefree, how would that feel? How will we know how to dream big dreams if we don't know what it would feel like to know that we don't have a care in the world?
Well that, amongst plenty more besides, is what we explore in this new episode of To Succeed... Just Let Go.
One key theme running through this episode can be summed up like this: you are at your best when you're not thinking.
Not thinking is the key to understanding who you are, what you are and what your big dreams would look and feel like.
Once we begin to understand what we truly "want" out of life, we then, as we explain in this episode, give our subconscious mind its "landing co-ordinates" - and, when we allow it, it will take us there... effortlessly.
There's much more to this episode than the above few words summarise - worth 32mins of your time!
-
Yes, once you get the hang of making the right choice, your new life takes on, quite literally, a life of its own.
In this episode we're exploring peace of mind and how to experience it.
And it is all about... experience - the great thing being, once you experience it, you can never un-experience it.
Peace of mind means: health, happiness, effortlessness, living "your best life", without a care in the world.
Like some of that?
The recipe is here and, actually, there are only two ingredients. How simple is that.
-
You are not who you think you are. Your deeply held expectations and beliefs about yourself have nothing to do with who you really are.
You are not your personality. You are not your so-called Conceptual Self - as we say in this episode, this fact is confirmed by the word "conceptual" - you are not a bundle of misconceived concepts, you are something far grander.
Imagine the power that you have within when you consider that people in their 70s, meditating for the first time, can meditate themselves neurally younger, reverse cognitive decline...
And that's only an isolated example of the power within.
When you begin to discover that power, no longer will you be afraid to venture beyond your comfort zone, out into a world beyond the capability of your thinking mind to even imagine.
As we say in this week's episode: It's time to wake up.
-
Oh, we're so good at coming up with "reasons why not":
That would be unrealistic - I can't see how that could happen - that's never going to work for little ol' me!!
All nonsense created by the normal thinking mind that is designed to ensure that your life does not change.
This episode use practical examples - case studies if you like - of how to let all your excuses and obstacles... just evaporate.
This is, if ever there was one, a How To episode.
-
Are you really your own worst enemy? Are you the one that's always getting in your own way? Is your daily life like an obstacle course?!
Would you, join two-thirds of my audience (you need to listen to the episode!) and what would that say about the extent to which you are or are not in the driving seat of your life?
In this episode we explore how we can, to quote a client "leave the old world of thought" behind. I explain just how effortless the whole "process" is.
And we explore the very real consequences of you choosing to pay attention to what is going on instead of paying automatic habituated attention to what you're thinking.
Your life awaits just a little action on your part!
-
All was well until thought crept over the fence and destroyed our experience of life!
All thinking leads to over-thinking. All thinking is flawed. And all flawed thinking leads you to thinking that you are flawed.
Flawed and undeserving, little in comparison to how grand you really are.
Using our mind that normal way, we sleepwalk through our lives, missing... everything but experiencing effort, struggle, stress and frustration.
We simply need to let our thoughts pass by.
Then, we experience reality as it is. We experience ourselves as we are. And we do what we need to do in the right in the right way at the right time... effortlessly.
Like the sound of that?
-
All too many people meditate without know why they need to meditate.
Yes, meditation is a necessity. If you don't take control of your own state of mind you will continue to miss your own life.
In this episode, I explain exactly how this happens automatically and we explore the implications.
Those implications are numerous and, at its most fundamental, they are the reasons why it is so difficult to give up bad habits, lose weight, make money, enjoy yourself as your self.
In these 30mins, I hope, I will impress upon you the paramount importance of taking control of your won state of mind. And how doing so will change... everything.
Also, you will hear me referencing a book during this episode - Depression: An Emotion Not an Illness. That book is by Aine Tubridy and Michael Corry.

We're all have a pretty good idea of what we don't want in our everyday lives. But goals are not things from which you run away!
No... goals are things we run towards - it's how we best set our mind to achieve anything and everything that our heart desires.
In this episode we explore exactly how to do that and, more importantly, we explore how our doing mind then goes about enabling that which our heart desires "fall intou our lap".
So, forget about what you don't want in your life; forget about how or when what you do want will happen; forget about where you'll be or what you need to do - just set your mind.
Then, your set mind will look after the rest. It will ensure that, in every here and now, you do the right thing to inexorably move you to where you really, really want to be.
You don't have to worry about what you need to do or when you need to do it. You don't need a plan. You need to have the end in mind and, with the end in mind, your doing mind will take you there.
And it's all pretty effortless.
-
You don't need to push nor do you need to struggle. You don't need to wonder when what your heart desires will fall into your lap. It will happen in its own good time.
Yes, life's a lot like comedy, it's all about... timing!
When you're in flow, you will discover the right information in the right way at the right time; you will hear things at just the moment that they mean the most to you; your Perfect Moments will "fall into your lap" at the perfect moment (otherwise they wouldn't be perfect moments!).
What you and I have to do is turn up: be focused, present, alert and ready for action.
To do this we need to become accustomed to choosing to be present, we need to become adept at practicing being present.
Through presence and action we become ready to receive - to receive all the good things that will inevitably "fall into our lap" in the right way, at the right time, effortlessly.
-
What strategies do you need to adopt for changing your life or any aspect of it?
What plans to you need to create to take the right action that will lead you to achieve your goals?
Well, you're in for an eye-opener in this episode: strategies and plans are what normal crazy people create to end up... in the same place!
You need neither strategies nor plans to transform your life and every aspect of it. In fact, there's only one thing that you need to change and that change will enable you do everything in the right way, at the right time to achieve so much more than what your thinking mind might have had in mind for you by way of "goals".
And a word of advice... do work through this episode (it's full of practical tips) and do listen carefully to the last 4 minutes... I'll say no more.
-
Yes, there's only one lifestyle choice that you need to make - after that you're restructured brain will take you in hand and make all the moment-to-moment choices for you effortlessly.
That means you'll start acting - a world away from how we normally only automatically react.
That means you will transform every aspect of your life: your health and wellbeing, your financial freedom, your success and happiness.
What's that one lifestyle choice? Well, if you're a regular listener, you may well already know. If you're not, it's time to find out!
But, as I said, getting it right it enables you live life to the full, it enables you effortlessly make the moment-to-moment binary choice: am I present or am I thinking.
-
We've talked about how important it is to forget the past - with a view to living in the present.
But what about the future? Surely you need to think your future through, figure it out, have a plan. No!
Forget about the future too.
Because the only place that you can live your life is in the here and now. Your future will be created by what you do and how you do it in the here and now.
And, when you do turn up to and tune in to the here and now, lo and behold, you feel a sense of direction - it's called your gut instinct. You know what the right thing is to do now, to lead you to where is best for you, regardless of what you might think is going on in the here and now.
The episode explains exactly how this works in practice - it also explains how normal crazy people are responsible for creating the kind of life that they'd prefer not to have!
But let's not dwell on that. Instead, let's dwell on how to live, for real, with an inbuilt sense of unwavering direction.
-
So many people think that revisiting it will enable unpack who they think they are and, then, move on. So many people want to revisit it but end up reliving it.
And, even without the aid of a psychoanalyst, you must understand that the normally-minded way of "operating" means that we are, in effect, reliving our past every single day - every Groundhog Day - and, in the process, missing every single day of our lives.
No... today is the day that you decide "I'm leaving my past where it belongs... in the past".
Today is the day that you're going to fully understand and appreciate the importance of tuning your attention to the present, restructuring your brain's key neural components and taking the quantum evolutionary leap that is going to change your mind... today.
Time to move up a few gears...
