¿Por qué cada enero nos prometemos cambiar... y fracasamos a los pocos días? ¿Te suena familiar? Llega el nuevo año, y con él los propósitos: comer mejor, hacer ejercicio, aprender idiomas... pero cuando nos atamos las zapatillas para correr, el mundo se vuelve pesado y la motivación desaparece. ¿Por qué ocurre esto? En este episodio vamos a desmitificar la fuerza de voluntad como herramienta principal para el cambio personal. Hablaremos sobre el agotamiento del ego, el poder del autocontrol, y cómo convertir metas en sistemas sostenibles sin caer en la trampa de la autoexigencia excesiva o la culpa. Descubrirás: Qué es realmente la fuerza de voluntad y por qué confiar solo en ella puede ser un error. Cómo funciona el autocontrol como habilidad y no como don místico. La importancia de elegir nuestras batallas para evitar el desgaste emocional. Qué nos enseñan los experimentos de Dunedin, el malvavisco de Stanford o el famoso estudio de las galletas contra rábanos. Cómo el entorno, los sistemas y los hábitos valen más que la motivación espontánea. La teoría de la motivación temporal de Piers Steel y cómo aplicarla en tu día a día. Vamos a proponerte un enfoque mucho más amable, estratégico y eficaz para acercarte a tus metas personales. Cambiar no es una cuestión de voluntad heroica, sino de diseñar mejor tu día a día.

As the Sami community (Norway) struggles to protect ancestral lands from the building of a damn in 1979, Oslo detective Hans Sorensen arrives in the north of the country to investigate sabotage on a damn. Then a body is discovered, and Sorensen has to delve into his own past and heritage. He is Sami but no longer immersed in the culture, and Sorensen is also mourning the recent death of his wife, so he's hesitant to return to his hometown. He ends up following the trail of two women, a journalist and a musician, and discovers the writings of a relative, a real-life Sami author who wrote about his struggle to survive. If the Owl Calls (Sharon White, WTAW Press 2025) is a fascinating mystery filled with Norwegian and Sami history, about identity and memory.

In 1962, Dunedin farmer Alan MacLeod said to his wife Joan and six kids, 'how about going for a drive'?' Little did they know the 'harebrained scheme' Alan had cooked up would see them travelling the world in a homemade house truck a year later. Alan's wanted to reconnect the family with their MacLeod ancestry on the Island of Skye in Scotland, and visit friends he had made fighting in the Italian campaign in World War II. With a few boat crossings, they did it all in their house truck 'Holdfast' built from a Ford tractor engine, a city bus cab and the chassis of an armoured scout car. The extraordinary story is told by Hannah MacLeod whose mother Marilyn was one of the six kids on board. Hannah interviewed her aunts and uncles, and trawled through diaries and old newspaper clippings to recreate the story in her recently published book Overland to the Island.

In January 2020, the 58-meter yacht once known as Lady Ghislaine—the same vessel on which Robert Maxwell died mysteriously in 1991—was sighted in New Zealand, sparking a wave of intrigue and speculation. Now renamed Dancing Hare, the yacht docked at Akaroa before moving south to Dunedin's Victoria Wharf, its arrival prompting widespread coverage due to its grim legacy. Built in 1986 and named after Ghislaine Maxwell, the vessel symbolized the wealth and decadence of her father's media empire. Its reappearance decades later, in the waters of New Zealand, revived interest in the Maxwell family's dark history and the unanswered questions surrounding Robert Maxwell's death, as well as Ghislaine's later involvement in Jeffrey Epstein's operations.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
