This is probably the shortest “Autobiography’ you could listen to.

It’s fascinating to think what the meaning of the “Hole” is. 
I suggest it could refer to a “Mistake”. 

Play this through a few times to really capture its message. 

What holes do you keep falling into?

In this week's episode, Ged discusses the quote by Maya Angelou, featured in the book, "Conversations with a Camel", by Vanessa Rubera, that we can only ever do our best in any given situation, until we know how to do better....then our 'better' becomes our new 'best'.

Today's podcast is inspired by a quote from Steven Bartlett, author of the best-selling book, "The Diary of a CEO".

The quote reads, "Successful people have mental health issues, bad habits, gaps in their knowledge, moments of self-doubt, procrastination issues, imperfect routines, insecurities, and imposter syndrome, too. But they also know that these things are PERFECTLY NORMAL. That is the difference!"

A gentle reminder that not one of us is PERFECT.

We have to embrace IMPERFECTION.

Marina calls the unknown "The Field Of Possibility".

We don't know what lies in store for us...it is the "Unknown".

Why are we sometimes uncomfortable with the uncertainty with the future?

Can we teach Mental Health? In an age where mental problems and 'disorders' are on the rise, especially among our younger generations, the challenge arises as to how we solve these issues, and reduce the problems and the 'disorders'.

We have to start somewhere, and, for Ged, that is in our day-to-day education curriculum. We already teach 'Healthy Diet', so why not 'Healthy Thinking?'
