A New Way of Being Simon Mundie

If you want to get along with other people, and therefore be able to get ahead, being able to communicate clearly is a fundamental skill. In this age of chatbots and remote work, one thing that cannot be outsourced to machines are decent communication skills. And yet, so many people in so many industries speak in a language and jargom that makes it difficult to actually understand what they are saying. And that is a big mistake. Simplicity is key, as the BBCs master communicator Ros Atkins can explain
My book Champion Thinking: How To Find Success Without Losing Yourself draws on some of my favourite interviews over the last six years. In it, I seek to challenge our ideas about 'success', and where peace, joy and fulfilment are truly to be found.

Enough is an underrated word. If more people recognised we are all innately 'enough', then the world would likely look very different.
Becky Hall is the author of 'The Art of Enough', and she explains the relationship between being enough, having enough and doing enough. The sense of not being enough is so prevalent and drives so many fear-based behaviours we see in the world. In reconnecting with our innate 'enough-ness' we move into a state of ease and flow.

A New Way of Being is about recognising that we are all innately enough. Most of us don’t always feel that way, but it’s an illusion largely created by identifying with the outdated voice in our heads.
And so much stuff out there, including much of the so-called high performance culture, comes from a place of inadequacy. If we are not enough as we are, of course we will expand vast amount of energy trying to BECOME enough in the future. But that’s a trap. We cannot become what we already are, and the search obscures this recognition.
Does this mean we become passive, lazy, indifferent and don’t look to do big and important things in the world? Of course not. But crucially the intention is different. We are not seeking to prove our worth. We are choosing to express it. It’s a whole different energy and way of being.
So, I have decided to bring all my platforms under one banner - A New Way of Being. So that’s my podcast, YouTube and Substack newsletter. The final chapter of an epic trilogy of rebrands! The podcast started out as Don’t Tell Me The Score on the BBC, using sport to explore life’s bigger questions. Those episodes are still in the back catalogue, so tuck in. Then onto Life Lessons – broadening the scope from just sport.
Time for a new way of being, don’t you think?

"If your emotional abilities aren't in hand, if you don't have self-awareness, if you are not able to manage your distressing emotions, if you can't have empathy and have effective relationships - then no matter how smart you are, you are not going to get very far."
That is one of Daniel Goleman’s quotes about emotional intelligence, which was also the title of his best-selling book – which outlined a compelling argument as to why EQ matters more than IQ. In this bitesize episode, Daniel breaks down what emotional intelligence is, and then shares some ways to develop your EQ – including by using mindfulness meditation.

My book Champion Thinking: How To Find Success Without Losing Yourself is now on general release. Drawing on some of my favourite interviews over the last five years, including with Daniel Goleman, I want to challenge our ideas about 'success', and where peace, joy and fulfilment are truly to be found.

"Letting go is one of the most efficacious tools by which to reach spiritual goals." - David Hawkins
This conversation is about the power of letting go of outcomes, identity and attachments. It is paradoxically incredibly hard, and easy, at the same time. Letting go allows us to free ourselves from the burdens of the past and live fully in the present moment. This is a re-released episode with the delightful Kevin Clifton while I take a short break, but we will be back with some big plans and new episodes in a couple of weeks.

"One important key to success is self-confidence. An important key to self-confidence is preparation." - Arthur Ashe
So many of the elite performers I have spoken to over the last six years have exuded confidence. But what makes them so confident in their abilities?
The answer — preparation! Once the building blocks are in place, you can let go and surrender to what happens. That's when magic happens.
Hours of meticulous preparation allows top performers like Wales rugby legend Sam Warburton to walk into any situation with confidence. This he applied from a very young age, at school as well as on the pitch, and it has served him well throughout life.
