What I really wanted to talk about this week was IMPACT. What impact do you make on the world or the people around you? Have you ever considered this? I know I do. Plenty of people tell me they’re no-one so it’s really up to them or within their capability to make an impact. I call BS on that. We all make an impact on the people around us and sometimes to the broader community without necessarily realising it. But what if we went out of our way to make a conscious impact on the people around us? What if we believed in ourselves enough to know that we matter, what we does matters and don’t let the focus be so much on who we’re not but instead who we are.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Want to get more done and stop wasting time? Then keep the main thing the main thing. Don't get distracted by every shining light. Don't chasing every car that comes by your yard. Focus.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Often people ask how to make life easier. I think the higher quality question would be how to make life better.  Adventure certainly does that so I thought I’d chat about how and why Adventure can benefit you and your life.   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on the Mid Week Motivation I want you to get clear on the standards you set and accept for yourself the people you surround yourself with. People around you will treat to the level that you allow. If you find you're being mistreated then the onus is on you to do something about it. You set the standard that is acceptable to you. Don't ever expect others to put a higher value you on you then you're willing to.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week I wanted to dig deep on a topic that I feel sits at the heart of people being scared to have a go at chasing their dreams. OTHER PEOPLES OPINIONS. So I share some strategies around getting over what other people think, finding the right people to care about and how you can increase your self-belief and self-confidence. Strap yourself in and get ready to let go of the fear of other people's opinions.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I recently read a control study where they were looking to find out if there was any difference between setting a goal, working with a team all setting a goal or writing your goals down. The written goals certainly were more likely to see the control group achieve the goal but the statistics behind just how powerful written goals were was quite astonishing. After listening to this weeks Mid Week Motivation I think you will be compelled to write your goals down.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Have you ever completed a triathlon? Do you consider yourself a triathlete? No. Well Tom Dunn doesn't consider himself a triathlete either but he's about to embark on the longest triathlon ever run on the Australian Continent and he's doing it solo. 3,780km Bike Ride 910km Run 135km Swim What drives a young man to do something that seems so close to impossible? Tom is raising money for the Melbourne Indigenous Transition School and he wants to show these young kids that anyone can do anything if given the opportunity. I think you're going to love his story.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mediocrity is a standard that society is all too willing to accept. Not us though. You cannot he mediocre for success.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There are a lot of strings to the bow of what makes Alyssa unique and such a high achiever. Just over two months ago she successfully summitted Mt Everest from Tibet making it her second time to stand on the summit of Mt Everest. She has made the summit at 19yo and 21yo. Alyssa has successfully climbed peaks in Russia, Africa, South America, Nepal and Australia. She has completed the Kokoda Track eight times. But what makes here tick? What's her training program like? What side of Mt Everest is harder? How does she feel being an inspiration to younger generations? We tackle all of these questions and more in a great conversation for Episode 93 of the Building Better Humans Project podcast.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Let’s call fear of failure what it is - stupid. We all know the fear isn’t real. It’s often ego driven. Let’s shelve the ego. Park the fear and go achieve something epic.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Having just returned from a trip to Melbourne where I spent some time with my son, Christian, but also ran some workshops I was struck again with the fact that not everyone wants to change. I learnt many years ago to be totally ok with that and to not buy into other people's success. More to the point, not to tie my identity to their success. This week on the show I am sharing some tips for those of you that do want to create change. I have taken the liberty to assume this is you if you're listening to the show. My Tips: 1.    KNOW WHAT YOU WANT. 2.    KNOW WHY YOU WANT IT. 3.    KNOW WHAT YOU NEED TO DO TO GET IT. 4.    KNOW WHAT YOU’RE WILLING TO DO TO GET IT. 5.    RIGHT IT DOWN. . 6.    FIND AN ACCOUNTABILITY BUDDY. There's a nice little surprise piece towards the end of the show too so make sure you listen all the way through.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out inf

I recently watched a video on youtube called Claire's Last days and I was blown away by it. Claire is a young woman that has been in Lung Failure for a few years yet her energy and positivity is amazing. I felt there's a lesson in that for all of us so this week I wanted to chat about this but also share it with you. I also check in on how you're going with making this your best year ever because that's the goal we set at the start of the year. How are you going? Hit me back and let me know. I share some of the recent feedback which I am blown away by. Humbled.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The collection of information in this day and age is an amazing way to learn things. It can also cause overhwlelm because when you learn something you also realize how little you know. So you lookmto get more information. This can lead to serious overwhelm and to not taking action. Let’s overcome that this week.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Reihana Manaena has had his fair share of personal tragedy, a tragedy that many would struggle to over-come. In his mid 20's he was building his life and his family like most of us in that age bracket when a life altering tragedy hit him and his two young daughters. I had met Reihana a few years ago and his vibrance, positivity and real zest for life was contagious. I had no idea of the tragedy that had struck only two years before we met. Once I found out I was mesmerised even more by his amazing attitude and the way in which he focused on growing other people, building people up in the face of such adversity. I wanted to know how he did it because I'm not convinced I could have done the same. The answers were surprisingly simple. Faith and Family. I think you'll get so much from this episode and I can't thank Reihana enough for being willing to share this very personal story with me in an effort to lift someone else up that may be going through something tough.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy a
