KEY TAKEAWAYS
I’ve been living on the south coast of Spain, living an outdoor lifestyle and managed to avoid catching Covid for the last two years. I guess there was a part of me that thought I was immune, impenetrable and to some extent it’s that attitude, that mindset, along with the lifestyle that I’ve been living that has kept me out of harm's way.
I’m on day five of being indoors not seeing anyone and I’m losing my shit, people! It’s a perfect environment to work. It’s quiet, it’s warm, but the mere fact that I’m in isolation… I can’t put my finger on it, but I can’t concentrate, I can focus, I can’t install and instil the good habits that I’ve created. And I’m wracking my brain as to why this is.
I’ve come to realise that the one thing I value most in all the world, in the kingdom I’m creating, in the universe, is my freedom. I am free, effectively, to come and go as I please because I’m a free being, but as a good citizen you tend not to go and potentially spread the virus further, so you isolate yourself even though there’s no real cause for concern. I know I’m not locked in this room, but I feel locked in it, I feel caged in it and that everything around me is caving in and crumbling.
 
BEST MOMENTS
‘I’m very grateful I have Covid now and not before the first and second waves.’
‘It feels like a mild cold instead of a strong flu.’
‘I know I could go to mentors or gurus and they would say: “Gav, it’s just your body, it’s just your mind that’s in the room, your spirit is free, recognize your spirit is free and you’ll free yourself.” But it doesn’t feel like that.’
 
ABOUT THE HOST
Gavin Scott is a born entrepreneur with a passion for start up and scale up. He has over 20 years real estate experience in investment and development.
Gavin says: Over the years I have discovered that mindset is everything. Now, that might sound obvious, but it is! You see the number of awoken minds are very few in reality. Whilst acknowledging mindset is key it is absolutely different from utilising, influencing, impacting and effecting great change, for yourself, your loved ones, friends, colleagues and the wider public.
Why?
Like most of us I have had many ups and downs. I want to share the lessons learnt and promote a better environment for all, internally and externally!
How?
Through sharing my own experiences and hosting some fabulous individuals including some big household names to discuss key topics around mindset and the success formulas I hope the listener will become inspired to create space for change for betterment in their lives. I aim to inspire change by encouragement, not by force. I intend to inspire by education, not by regulation.
