#143 – THE IMPORTANCE OF YOUR STATE OF MIND, with SIIMON REYNOLDS

Hi there & welcome back!

Well this is exciting – a milestone episode having just clicked over 2,000,000 listens from people around the world!!

I truly love living my purpose of inspiring & empowering millions of people to discover & chase their Dreams – and this episode is certainly going to deliver on that purpose.

Siimon Reynolds left school and went straight into a career in advertising. Some years later he had created a network of advertising agencies operating in 14 countries that became one of the top 20 networks in the world. Valued at over A$500m.

With more than 50 awards for excellence to his name, and a 30-year career owning and running numerous successful companies he's been featured on 60 Minutes, Today, Bloomberg and many other TV programs as a high achiever, including as a Shark on Australia's original version of Shark Tank (Dragon's Den).

Along the way, he collected many learnings that he now shares as a sought-after speaker & business mentor. And he has much to share about the importance of your state of mind – and how to maximise it – which comes out in this episode.

This episode is SOOOOO full of valuable & practical insights – you’ll benefit from listening to it more than once!

Things you'll learn in this episode include:

• How a morning ritual is just the start of a productive day.
• How important it is to take time to reflect thru the day so you can monitor your state of mind.
• How important it is to release negative energy throughout the day – and how simple it can be to do that in the moment.
• The many benefits of physical exercise on your state of mind – and how a ‘second wind work out’ in the afternoon can lift your state of mind & productivity.
• The power of breaking dreams & goals in to one day increments – and why it’s important to ‘Win the Day’. One day at a time. And how to do that.
• How to separate what you can control from what you can’t – and why it matters so much.
• How ‘showing up’ and ‘starting small’ is so important.
• How life-changing it can be to limit yourself to no more than 60 seconds dwelling on problems - before moving to a ‘relentless solutions focus’ (starting with a question for yourself of ‘what is just one thing I cloud do to help solve this?’)
• How to use ‘Next Play Speed’ as a great technique to help you bounce back from the many every-day adversities & challenges we all face.
• How your biggest disasters can be the beginning of your biggest successes.
• Why the three character traits of Confidence, Optimism & Persistence are so important.
• How to consciously create a positive self-identity.
• Why having a coach is vital for anyone.
• …and so much more!
