Creators: Less Is Not More! More Is More! {Podcast 74}
IN TODAY’S PODCAST….
I want to have a bit of a chat about less being not more. It’s AGAINST what everyone thinks about. What if you’re like me and wanting to expand more, to be multi-passionate, to DO MORE? What if your messages means expressing it in multiple ways?
What I’m realising lately is that something’s missing. I worked out, I worked on the projects for my business, I wrote more of my book – and it was only 4pm. I was by the pool, and thought: my social life is missing. I’m in Bali right now, so most of my friends are stuck out of Bali with this ash cloud. I thought… when was the last time I had something random, exciting, terrifying and NEW to work on?
Back when I was a personal trainer, I used to have idea storming meetings, or CREATION MEETINGS with friends – let’s create a chocolate company! let’s open a gym! – and even though most of the ideas didn’t come to fruition, the purpose was unleashing the energy of being CREATIVE and DARING.
Most people say relax, and slow down – I say stand the FUCK UP and DO MORE! To me, why would I live a life where I would just relax – if I could live a life that excites me?
- Do something new – something that brings you joy
- Listen to your heart, follow the sense of joy
- Why not do something that’s fun?
- Do you want extra, free time – or do you want to do more exciting, fun things?
EXERCISE:
- Write down the last time you did something just for the fun of it. When was it? Days ago? Weeks, years ago? What was it?
- Write down – BRAINSTORM if you have to – something you could do for fun, something that will enlighten you. Write down the next 3 steps you MUST take today to start.
