Fast Track To Fearless

I know it’s not just me who occasionally wakes up around 4 a.m. with worries on my mind. One minute, you are sleeping soundly; the next minute, you are wide awake, counting the catastrophes and impending doom.

How do I know it’s not just me? Because when I googled 4a.m. worrying things like ‘nocturnal anxiety’ ‘4 a.m. thoughts’ and a whole load of questions and possible answers come up.

This is for people who find January hard.  Post-holiday season let down, tiredness because of said holiday season, or the loneliness for many during holiday seasons, dark days, rain, need I go on?

2024 is upon us and it is that time of year when people start thinking about what they want to be different.  

One tool I think is absolutely brilliant at this time of year is the Wheel of Life.  It can help you work out how to go from mediocre to memorable (in a good way) in terms of your year ahead.

Last year, I think I told you how much I turn into a Bah Humbug Scrooge at Christmas, what with the extra expense, consumerism, buying, wrapping, clearing up, cooking, buying, cleaning etc. I won’t go on.

Of course, there is so much I love about the holidays, namely, being with the family and having quality time. But no-one can tell me it’s a relaxing time of year - unless maybe you are one of those people who flies away to the Caribbean!

Anyway, if you are like me and f...

I don't know about you but when I think about 2023 I’d say it’s been like being in a tumble drier. It makes me think of the three witches in Macbeth saying;
​When shall we three meet again? And the answer being,
​When the hurly burly’s done

When the battle’s lost and won

​
​2023 has felt like hurly-burly, noisy disorder and commotion, just lots and lots of turmoil. ​I want to encourage you to really hit the pause button, unplug and take a dip in Lake You!
We need time to rest, recharg...

You know how they say there are some people who walk into a room and the atmosphere changes? In a good way?

There are people who make their presence felt, who you can’t help but notice. Well, I think there’s a way to create that effect intentionally.

So, if you’ve ever felt like a wallflower or awkward in a meeting or room of people and are open to trying some new ideas, have a listen to this week’s episodes for my tips and advice.

Most people are scared of change, frightened by the unknown and the feeling of not being in control of what’s going to happen. But I think there’s a way to find it positively scary.

So change often is scary but standing still, in the long run, can be even scarier in terms of what you don’t end up doing, what you miss out on and experience.

So it’s worth it to feel the fear and do it anyway. It’s worth it to know that you’ll be uncomfortable for a bit in an unknown...

“If at first you don’t succeed…try, try again!” goes the saying.

But I think that misses a crucial bit between the ‘not succeeding’ and the ‘trying again’. If we just hurl ourselves back into the trying again one, it can feel relentless and exhausting, AND we might miss out on some crucial learnings.

​ So this is what I think: if at first you don’t succeed, follow this 5 R process before trying again.

Listen to this week’s episode to find out about my 5 R process.
