    KISP - Ep 133 - Silencing Your Mind

    Silencing your mind is one of the most difficult things you could ever hope to do. I feel like I have gotten a hell of a lot better at it but I am only capable of doing it in the evenings right before bed. Probably one of the most important times to be able to quieten your mind and allow yourself to drift off to sleep, so thats pretty handy. Todays episode gets into how I quieten my mind and my mindset towards getting enough rest. Hey, howzit going?

Episodes are released Monday through Friday. In general this podcast will be business focused and it will touch on life lessons I have had the privilege of learning.

    KISP - Ep 131 - Team Work

    There is two types of people in the world, those who play well with others and those who don't. We all know people who, even in a team environment, want one of their team mates to fuck up. I remember at school I had those feelings from time to time but as soon as we started getting paid to win, there was a very quick transition from hoping a person in the team who bullied me or was a dick failed to, I don't care who you are when we walk onto that field, all off field antics are exactly that, off field antics, we are here to win and in order to do that, we all need to step up. Business is something of a similar beast in my head. Yes there are plenty assholes but end of the day it is a team effort to get us over the line. Todays episode gets into a recent experience in the office and what I learnt from it all. Hey, howzit going?

    KISP - Ep 130 - Time & Money

    Money is something you can always make more of, time however, that shit can't be created. We all have 24 hours in a day and 7 days in a week. No one has the ability to conjure up more time, well no one that I know anyway. So why do we so often waste our time doing shit that doesn't get us paid? Quite often we end up doing shit that costs us time in place of things that we could do to earn some bank. Rather than wasting your time doing stuff you're not good at, focus on the things you get paid to do and pay people to do the things that you don't. Now, obviously if you have down time, you can then do the shit yourself and save yourself some money but if lets say you are going to redecorate your house instead of decorating someone else house, well you're losing the potential to earn money and you're then paying time to do it yourself. Thats dumb! Hey, howzit going?

    KISP - Ep 129 - The Wood Through The Trees

    It's pretty easy to get caught up in something and before you know it, you're in a tail spin and you have no idea which way is up, let alone how you are going to get yourself out of the situation you find yourself in. This is generally where panic sets in and people do stupid shit that gets them even deeper in the shit. I am a big believer in the whole concept of taking a deep breath and then re-evaluating the situation. Very often, we forget to breath when the shit hits the fan and I am no doctor or scientist but I think the lack of oxygen to the brain makes us do stupid shit. When you find yourself in hot water, take a deep breath and run yourself through the situation and the options you feel you currently have. Guarantee you will make a lot better decision because taking that deep breath will stop you from getting too carried away and allowing panic to set in. Hey, howzit going?

    KISP - Ep 128 - Everyone Wants To Go To Heaven But No One Wants To Die

    Everyone wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die - a saying that I heard over the course of the weekend or last week and one that pretty much stopped me in my tracks and punched me in the face. Truth is, I have been pretty manic at this new contract role and unfortunately that has taken up a lot of my time. The result of this was me neglecting my other goals and aspirations. Forgetting what was truly important to me. The saying hit me so hard because I have been saying for a very long time now that I want certain things in life but my actions have been contradicting my desires. The verbal contracts I have been making with myself haven't been taken seriously enough because I have had too much focus elsewhere. I get into this a little in this episode and I talk about how losing focus can be pretty easy, especially when you fixate on one aspect of your life, it then becomes extremely difficult to bring your focus and energy into other areas.

    KISP - Ep 127 - It Is Easy Because It Was Once Difficult

    Everything you start is difficult before it becomes easy. It is easy because it was once difficult and you persevered with it. I ran into a bit of a crisis of confidence at work on either Friday last week or Monday this week because I am having to do some stuff I have never had to do before. That compiled with the fact that I am clueless when it comes to what the fuck people are talking about, makes doing the job even harder. Then I took a trip down memory lane and remembered the first contracting role I did. For a solid 6 months I felt clueless. The next role it was about 4 months, the role after that about 3. These things are to be expected when starting somewhere new. I just need to keep at it and what was once difficult will become easy. Just like back in the day when I was playing a lot of sport and had a tough time with with bowlers who were bowling 90+ mph. Initially it was very tough but the more I did it the better I got, till eventually 90+ mph was quick, anyone who says otherwise is full of shit, but it was manageable and wasn't something that I needed to fear.

    KISP - Ep 126 - Your Own Journey

    I celebrated a birthday this week. It was an interesting day, I had a run in with a colleague, nothing too serious, I had to bite my lip but it took all my strength to do so. Byron 10 years ago would have punched the guy in the mouth, zero seconds to think it through and zero fucks given regarding consequence. Today I am a lot more mature and calculated. Anyway, enough about me and how much I have grown and more about todays episode. All too often people have this idea of where you should be and at what point. End of the day, it is your journey and only you can determine where you should be at what point. Hey, howzit going?
