Episode Synopsis

In the latest edition of his ‘If I Ruled The World…’ series, Paul talks to Mei Lafferty, a young person from Florida, who talks candidly about her life experience, how she sees the world, and how she would effect positive change upon society given the chance.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Technology is shaping the way in which we all see the world, but especially for young people, who experience life through social media, and through instant connection globally. It has created a huge discrepancy in the experience of life between older and younger generations.
Environmental concerns seems to be shrugged away the generation that soon will pass, but is being fiercely fought for by the generation who will inherit the planet. It is one of the defining arguments between the old and young.
Fear is not always a negative force. Used correctly, it can keep us aware of what needs to be done, and keep us alert against the tasks ahead.
The best way to begin to heal the world is to create a more effective synergy between humans and the animal kingdom, between people and nature. We are far too obsessed with our immediate surroundings, instead of the incredible world at large.
BEST MOMENTS
‘I think we should take a step back and realise that we’re just a small part of this environment, but we play a big role in its future’
‘I stand against the arrogance of profit before people’
‘One of the driving forces for us is that desire to do something about what we’re fearful of’
’The categorisations we’ve placed on animals are really subjective'

ABOUT THE HOST
One thing that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – something he is totally aware of.  He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned the iconic ‘Think Different’ Apple commercial narrated by Steve Jobs in 1977:
 “Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules.  You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do!”
Paul has a long and distinguished history of coaching & mentoring – particularly focusing on helping people make the transition from pain to purpose; a journey he has made himself, from the depths of a deep dark existence, to now living a life of happiness and prosperity.
Through this Mastering The Game Of Life podcast, and books he has been involved in – including being a best-selling co-author – Paul also helps others to get their own inspirational messages and stories out into the world; as well as offering support to many charitable organisations, in their development & fund-raising.
