QUOTE I'M REFLECTING ON
PODCASTS
BIG DOES NOT EQUAL GREATIn this conversation David Chenery and I discuss what we can learn from the businesses and thinking in "Small Giants", a great book by Bo Burlingham. The book explores what some of the most remarkable, under-the-radar companies are doing and questions the usual definitions of business success. β

INTERVIEW
Some weeks ago I was honoured to be invited by Silicon Brighton to do an on stage interview around "The Do's and Don'ts of Podcasting". Many people have asked me over the years what the learnings have been been from planning, interviewing, producing and promoting more than 250 episodes. You get all my top tips in this great conversation with Helen Vits.

MINI-UNIVERSITY
Last week I felt overwhelmed by the constantly spinning world.
β
I was craving control.
β
But there is a difference between what you can control and what you canβt.
β
To gain some control, I did the following exercise and started writing my answers down.
β
It starts by asking what things are indeed within my control:
β
How do I show up?
What energy do I bring to the world?
What do I focus on?
How much time do I spend on social media?
How much sleep do I get?
How much TV do I watch?
What do I eat?
How do I start and end my days?
β
The list becomes very quickly long.
This exercise makes you feel in control.
β
Whenever you are not feeling in control, do this exercise.
β
It gives clarity of where you are spending your energy, and what you have to take control of.
β
And remember all the things that you control:
Your effort.
Your beliefs.
Your actions.
Your attitude.
Your integrity.
Your thoughts.
The food you eat.
How kind you are.
How reflective you are.
How thoughtful you are.
The type of friend you are.
The information you consume.
The people you surround yourself with.
β
Q: What can you do now to feel more in control right now?

Wise selfishness vs foolish selfishness.Last week, I was captivated by a Netflix documentary featuring the late Desmond Tutu and the Dalai Lama titled "Joy." Here, they discuss how to find joy and happiness during troubled times. At some point in the interview, they discuss the need to care for yourself without hurting others.They state that you must take care of yourself, or you can not survive or be helpful to others.But caring for oneself should not hurt others. The Daila Lama brings up...
The Power of Positive Energy.None of us can expect to get through life and work without obstacles. Life and work do not always go our way.But that does not mean you canβt navigate it better. You need more POSITIVE ENERGY.In my work observing what Maverick leaders KNOW and DO, I have found that they see positive energy as THE fuel for driving themselves and their organisation to greatness.When I talk about positive energy, I do not think about the rah-rah kind. I think about:- Optimism.-...
Slow down to go far...In the bustling landscape of entrepreneurship and life, finding the silence and solitude one needs to think clearly can be challenging.In the last few years, I've recognised its profound impact on my life and work.Not only when it comes to coping now but also to ensure I can keep going.Silence is often overlooked in our fast-paced world.It holds the key to bettering ourselves and enhancing our leadership.When we neglect this vital space, the quality of our...
