Episode Synopsis

KEY TAKEAWAYS
The mind is an incredibly powerful mechanism. But we can focus a lot of energy trying to manipulate or control a situation that’s out of our control, just because we have a dream around it. As a general rule of thumb, the more an individual can control their situation, the more the more chances of achieving that goal or forming that belief there will be. Once you’re at the behest of third parties your chances reduce because they may have other thoughts.
I’m learning to dance at the moment and it’s teaching me so much about the balance of control and letting it go in the technique and the flow and correct effort. I can practice all I like, but if that practice isn’t optimal – if I’m not learning the things I need to be learning to make progress – it’s just effort that’s wasted.
Recognise that you can have a dream, and that’s wonderful. You can go after it, set intentions, take all the action, but along the way the goalposts might move and if you’re too attached to the original idea or outcome then it’s going to skew your ability to grow and to go in the direction of your soul’s calling. That original goal might not be what was meant for you.
The positive language that we send down into our subconscious, which is very simple and binary, can raise you up energetically. Science has proven this. Part of the self-language I have doesn’t change because clouds pass and, if you’re Superman (like I tell myself I am), you can make it pass. 
BEST MOMENTS
‘We think that if we just put in loads of effort we’ll achieve our goal. That’s not the case. There are two things we need to be very aware of: vision (what do I want for my life? And reality (what is it you’re trying to control?)’‘We’re not responsible for changing the thoughts and opinions of the other 8 billion people on the planet, but we can change ourselves. By changing our world we change the world.’
‘If you can change something, let go of the need to control it and just take action.’‘When you let go of the need to control situations and circumstances you do take back responsibility and you get power back, which is almost like control. It’s a kind of paradox.’
