What is your ONE most important daily action for 30 Days this October Plant Positive Jumpstart? Considerations for your daily action: - This is about skill acquisition as well as results. What skills are worth building? - What is something that will have a compounding positive impact on your life? - What is the upside, if it goes really well? - What is the downside, is there even one - besides a little time?

Today's theme #MondayMotivation, and on my mind is some advice from entrepreneur Alex Hormozi that he shared in relation to business, however ABSOLUTELY it relates to health. Alex states to succeed you need: 🦁 The COURAGE to start (his word was balls, I like courage) 🧠 The BRAINS to learn. 💚 The HEART to never give up. To elaborate as I see it... 1. In health, you need the Courage to really commit. Wishy, washy, half-hearted won't cut it. It will likely ALSO eat away at your belief in yourself when you don't come through for you. Bonus points? Sharing your commitment with the people closest to you "should" elicit their support / understanding and also, it will help hold you accountable to more than simply yourself. 2. The Brains means recognising when something isn't working and adjusting accordingly. I absolutely DO NOT mean bouncing from one approach to the next. I do mean learning from mistakes or times you're set yourself up to lose the discipline game. 3. If you are taking the right actions, consistently you WILL see results. However, sadly they likely won't be in the fast timeframe you would most love. This means you must have the Heart to stick with it, as long as it takes and ALSO, to consciously focus on the good - the joy of the journey - the small wins, so that you can stick with it AS LONG AS IT TAKES! 😀 What small or big (!) wins do you have to share?

It was so great to get to talk with @Kate Galli recently on the Empathy Unbound Podcast and to explore her background, her present and her future. Inspirational is the only word I can use to describe our conversation, thank you Kate! https://rss.com/podcasts/empathyunbound/1759547/

Yesterday it was my true joy to guest on Victoria Moran's podcast. It is not live yet, however I will let you know when it is, as it's perhaps my favourite ever interview as the guest. For context, I'm averaging almost one guest interview a week this year. 💞 Victoria truly is a beautiful soul and I want to share a great question she asked me. The context was the state of the world - the hate, the conflict, the unnecessary cruelty and injustice... Victoria asked: Can you ever be at Peace with the state of the world right now? 😩 My answer? NO, absolutely not! However, I can be at peace with the person I am Being in the world. Also, I am just as driven as ever to create the kind, compassion, healthy, happy, vegan world I am seeking AND I have hope we can get there. I must have hope. 💞 Here are some of the things I am prioritising right now to BE the person I can be at peace with. More than that... to strive to be the person that makes me proud: ✅ Live a life aligned with my values: Freedom, Integrity and Compassion. This starts with veganism for me, however it extends to so much more. ✅ Be generous with my energy. Put another way, leave a person better for the time they spent with me. Gotta say it - be that "bright spark of happy", my dear mum always was. Note to self here: MAKE TIME. You cannot be generous with your energy when you are always rushing and trying to maximise your efficiency! ✅ Realistic expectations for loved ones. Hell, honestly, let's call this Lower Expectations for loved ones and higher expectations for myself. Meet people where they are. Without judgement. It's hard I know. I'm trying to lead with more curiosity as it's just more effective... and more enjoyable. Which leads me to... ✅ Focus on what's effective rather than what is right. I genuinely believe NOT exploiting animals is RIGHT. Yet also, leading with hard to hear truth bombs is not always effective. I write this to share my intention and to hold myself more acceptable to get better. Knowing and Doing are not the same and you can bet I don't get this right all the time!
