For some, relaxation might be yoga and meditation.  For others, it might be a cold beer and a nap on the sofa.  What works for you might not work for me, and vice versa.  So before we go out there preaching that our way is the best, or offering 'life changing' advice to absolutely everyone, let's take a minute to remember that everyone's journey will be different. As long as we all reach our intended destination, does it really matter what vehicle we take to get there?  Enjoy this episode?

Morning. Evening. Afternoon. Wanted to record an episode sharing my thoughts, feelings and experiences after my first 90 days on Youtube.  There are loads of videos out there telling you how to get your first 1,000 subscribers, how to monetise your channel and make your content go viral etc. - and of course all that is great. But there's not that many videos where creators document the early stages.  So that's what I decided to do. The highs, the lows, the expectations, the results, and hopefully some mindset based content that can support you in different areas of your life as well.  Would love to know where you're currently at with your project - Youtube or otherwise.  Leave comment in the box below with how things are going for you and let me know if what I said resonated.  Enjoy this episode?

Thanks for a great 99 weeks.  Taking a quick break and then refocusing in a slightly different way.  Looking forward to serving you up phase 2 very shortly.  Cheers. Chris. 

First things first, the audio on this episode is mashed. Not quite sure why. My voice is quieter and there's some weird hiss going on in the background. Apologies - only clocked it when listening back to the uploaded version. Will sort it for next week. Second, if you struggle with consistency, I share 4 things that have helped me keep showing up every single week - even when I haven't felt like it.  Listen in and subscribe to the show: @itschrisrobson

Are you desperately looking for someone to complete you? Or are you working hard to complete yourself first? Before complaining that you keep meeting the wrong person, or that there's no one decent available - take a look in the mirror and ask whether or not you're actually doing the work that will help attract the right type of person into your life.

Death and public speaking. Supposedly, our two biggest fears.  In today's episode, I share some tips to help you work through one of these.  If you struggle with presenting, speaking in public or generally putting yourself out there, get this in your ears.  @itschrisrobson

Be > Do > Have. In that exact order.  In today's episode, I get into the importance of believing in, and identifying as 'that guy' or 'that girl' before being able to manifest your goals.  If you've been on clear on what you want to have in your life for a while, but it seems further away then ever, this is the episode for you.  Make sure you subscribe to the show and follow me on the socials: @itschrisrobson

If you're looking to move into 2022 with more headspace and focus, what things have been lurking on your ‘to do' list for far too long?  I'm not talking about the big, transformational stuff here.  I'm on about those easy-to-do tasks that you just haven't done.  The things that are always there in the back of your mind, but something else always ends up taking priority. Whatever they are (and I know you know), think about how much better you'll feel moving into the new year with them finally out the way.  Make sure you subscribe to the show and follow me on the socials: @itschrisrobson

Just a quick Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and a thank you for all your support throughout another crazy year.  I really appreciate your ears on a weekly basis, and there's a lot more goodness coming for them in the new year.  For now, rest up, eat, drink, relax, and enjoy your time with your nearest and dearest.  Catch you in the new year! @itschrisrobson

Let's start the new year early.  If you've got big goals you're looking to achieve in the new year, here are 5 powerful questions you should be answering before you get started to give yourself the best possible chance of success.  Liking what you hear? Make sure you subscribe to the show and follow me on the socials: @itschrisrobson

Two weeks left in 2021.  Let's make them good.  And in order to do that, we need to redefine what success truly looks like to us.  Not to society. Not to our partners. Not to him or her next door. But to ourselves.  The sooner we can do that, the easier it becomes to feel satisfied with the smaller things in life and live truly inline with what's important to us.  Make sure you subscribe to the show and follow me on the socials: @itschrisrobson

It's all well and good getting excited to set goals for the new year.  But when did you last have an audit of all the stuff that no longer serves you and that slows you down.  Whether relating to your life, business, productivity, relationships... where are you currently investing your time/money/energy that is no longer providing a decent ROI? Make sure you subscribe to the show and follow me on the socials: @itschrisrobson

Essentially, values are the fundamental beliefs that guide our thoughts and actions.  Although fluid, and able to change as life progresses, your core values have most likely been with you for a long time.  You might hear words like ‘integrity', ‘honesty', ‘growth', ‘security', ‘community', ‘family', ‘happiness' etc thrown around, but if I were to ask you to name a few of yours now, would you be able to? And perhaps more importantly, are you actually living inline with them?

No matter how frustrated and ready for change you might be, it's rare that inspiration will come knocking if you're just doing the same things, with the same people, in all the same places.  So, if you're feeling flat, stuck or in need of some inspiration in your business or life right now... Where can you actively start looking and when will you actually start? Make sure you subscribe to the show and follow me on the socials: @itschrisrobson

Success isn't a secret. We can talk about 'discipline' and 'consistency' all day long. But there are two other key attributes that all the highly successful people in my circle share.  Want to know what they are and how you can adopt them too? Listen into this week's podcast to find out and get yourself some. Make sure you subscribe to the show and follow me on the socials: @itschrisrobson

A bit direct. I hope you'll excuse me.  But in this five minute Friday, I'm asking a direct question to help you level up, get unstuck and stay in Forward Motion: How are you currently bullsh*tting yourself? Make sure you subscribe to the show and follow me on the socials: @itschrisrobson

When was the last time you dialled in and fine tuned your non-negotiables? Those things commit to doing on a daily basis that contribute to your growth. They don't have to be big. In fact, it's usually better if they're not. But they do have to get done.  Check out this week's podcast for some of mine that help me to feel and operate at my best and then commit to your own!

It's important to know what we don't want in our life. But how clear are you on how you DO want things to be instead? You've heard the saying "where focus goes, energy flows". So make sure your focus is in the right place! Unhappiness and discomfort can be a great motivator, but in order to create long, term sustainable change, are they really the best things to focus on?

Two weeks of slacking in a few different areas has left me feeling a bit all over the place.  Struggling to focus, unsure of my choices, energy off, knackered and just going through the motions.  I wanted to share this with you let you know it happens to the best of us! ; ) And also to stress the importance of focusing on the bounce back as quickly as possible.  If you've had a little wobble recently, get this in your ears.

As a guy who coaches predominantly guys, there are a few common blockers I come across that tend to keeps guys stuck. Myself included here.  If you're looking to make some positive changes in your life, but struggling to make the progress you want, get this episode in your ears and see what point lands most with you.  Make sure you subscribe to the show and follow me on the socials: @itschrisrobson

When it comes to working on our goals, let's not confuse a lack of time with having no time.  The truth is, even if we've only got 10 minutes to make something work, if we want to, we can usually make it work.  Don't get me wrong, this isn't about being "on it" all the time like some weird personal development monk.  But it is about being intentional and honest about how much time we do have, and working with it. Not against it.  Make sure you subscribe to the show and follow me on the socials: @itschrisrobson
