Personal Development Unplugged

Does Fear Make You Feel Safe? That's what someone said! Really? What really does fear do for you? What's it's positive intention? Because your unconscious mind does nothing without a positive intention. But when the behaviour (FEAR) is now in conflict with your unconscious mind's intention and knows about the conflict I believe it has to change AND find a better way. We just need to help it find so many better ways. :O) It's only a 6 minute Five Minute Quickie to get you thinking and will, I have no doubt, lead to a longer #episode.

Oh No! Another Bloody Goal Setting Workshop - NOT! From creating our reality, our future, and literally our present I want to have a conversation about changing wishes, dreams, goals, what you want to do, be and have from the ethereal to making them happen. We all have the above and they almost certainly will fade away if we don't take action But just taking action without a plan and even more importantly really knowing what you specifically want and how that would be and how it will affect everything in your life ends in what some people call failure or simply put a result not what you wanted - What a waste of time! I want you to achieve those dreams, wishes, goals, what you want to do, be and have AND enjoy both the process and the result. Soooooo......... We'll go through the whole process, taking your dream, wish, goal, what you want to do, be and have but in a way that's different from what you may have done before. This could have been a two-part episode but I wanted to take you through from start to fi

Creating Your Reality - Do You Really? Or is it BS? There is a lot of BS spoken about how you create your reality BUT that doesn't mean it's BS - or does it? Let's dive into this and the deeper we go I think we'll find some things we can do to make this happen. You see there is a natural phenomenon to creating your reality, the life you are experiencing right now and if we, you and I, get to use it wisely and not haphazardly the next now could be really different. Now I know as usual I'm being a little vague and that's because this is primarily an auditory experience and that means pressing play and coming with me. That being said I know your time is precious, I'm so grateful you share it with me, and I think you will learn something valuable here if you are willing to invest in yourself - That's a given knowing why you're here. Go on then press play > and please share this episode with every contact you have in the Universe and I'm sure the Universe will reciprocate  :O) https://personaldevelopmentunplugged

Deliberately Finding Passion Creativity and Confidence Let's do it together In our last episode, I told the story of my stumbling into passion and now it's time to dive into how you can find your passion, along with creativity (you might not realize you have) and being confident in you and your adventure. So............... Whether it's that side hustle (I really don't like that word) or your career or hobby or simply to be interested and interesting or find that thing you want to learn that will light that fire you know is somewhere inside you I have some simple ways to have any of the above. Simple, "In Simplicity There Is Genius", easy in their application and all you have to do is apply them - not even all of these but why wouldn't you apply them all? Ensuring your success takes just a little effort and all you have to ask yourself is "IS THIS IMPORTANT TO ME?" "WOULD THIS BE OF VALUE?" Your passions are hiding in plain sight, they are whispered to you, they are in the intuitive feeling and all you have to

Another No More Fake Confirming what we know When you fake it until you make it - You're a Fake (With an upper case F) and it's good to know that it's not just us who believe this and we, you and I, are on the right track. Faking will never make you authentic, congruent, and the Real you. You know it and also everyone else knows it too!

Accidently finding Passion and purpose Sometimes you have to look back to see it in your future In this episode, I will share with you a couple of personal stories that I shared with my son's Mind Mastery group on a live call. Purpose and passion can be hiding in plain sight and are signposted in your past and just sometimes we get prompted to look from the unexpected. It's only when we do, look back at the adventure we call life, that we can experience what we have been searching for is and has been here all along and we're just too wrapped up in the distraction of the noise. I hope as you listen to these stories things are triggered off in your own mind and thoughts and that you can see what next steps to take or where to look deeper. When you do please let me know what you discovered and where you plan to take that passion and maybe you will let me share that with others in this podcast so as to inspire many others. Talking of sharing as always I ask will you share this episode to all your friends and mayb

Wakey Wakey!! Living the Dream? Are you living the dream or are you the dreamer or are you in the dream or are you napping? When you really think about those questions it makes your head spin and you realize you really should wake up. A friend of my son Joesph, Tim Freake (a stand-up philosopher - what a great job and a great name!) gave me a copy of his book 'Lucid Living' a long time ago and as usual hearing things on podcasts and writing in my journal  I cam up with this episode. I've reminded myself to wake up, to keep waking up and I'd like you to consider it too. Even just musing this will start the process of nudging you awake and begin creating. Maybe it's all the noise that's like a lullaby to distract you from who you are and what you're capable of and being. So it's up to you to decide to get the attitude of living, set your intention to wake up and do - BE! But how do you do this? Have a listen and I'll share my thoughts on the how. Please share this episode and help others to wake up too. Here's

The How-To to Tackle Overwhelm Enter into the world of being 'in a pickle' - 'pickledom' or in other words, overwhelm And the most important thing in this five-minute quickie is in the HOW, the how-to to tackle overwhelm or more specifically stop it when it happens. When you do this a couple of times we create a habit, a good habit,  a good behavior which then makes ripples of change. It's short and sweet so no excuses not to listen or use what you hear Have fun and share: https://personaldevelopmentunplugged.com/fmq_344-_unplug_and_reboot/ Shine brightly Paul Please remember you can leave a comment or email me with questions, requests and feedback.

How to really Learn - the Only way to Learn And no one tells you I know it's a big statement and I do believe it's true and not a 'clickbait' When you understand this and follow the only way to learn then success will come knocking at your door and when you go through it you'll learn some more and the loop continues. Would the above be important to you and being able to enter into the world of 'Mastery' - Doing what you know and knowing what you do - and then learn and do more. You see learning is not knowing, let's explore that and let me tell you my experience of that big time. Obviously, this is a podcast, an auditory experience, so come with me and press play then let me what you learned and please share what you learned with others because it'll set the learnings even deeper and please share this episode so others may learn - the only way to learn https://personaldevelopmentunplugged.com/254-how-to-really-learn-the-only-way-to-learn Shine brightly Paul Please remember you can leave a comment or email me

So why the F**k Bother? But I think you will There's so much in this episode, so much more than Anxiety to Confidence that I think will get you from not just thinking about this to excelling in every area of your life - Bold statement Cloughie! But first we, well I, need to be shocked. Because the more you do, the more you learn, you will never be enough or know enough. So that general belief that I hear so often in the clinic "I'm not enough" is the most inspiring belief to have -WHAT!!!!!!!!????????? And we can also be inspired by the words DREAM, CREATE, EXCEL even though it will never be as good as it can be, could be - You can always do better. So why bother? Come with me to explore why we should, why I should and why you may want to. And let's explore if you could never get any better because you're the best you can be, you have learned all there is to learn. what would that be like?  B**ring! Hey, as we dive into this I'll also show you how even feeling good from a good memory how we can make that feel

Who's listening To You? You may be surprised. This is a whopper of an episode in the amount of not only golden nuggets but silver and bronze ones tooo! How would you, do you help your best friend(s)? You're always there for them and support them. Or do you? Because you have a best friend, we all do and they're better than every other friend(s) you have on the outside and despite how you treat them they are always there, doing more than you can imagine - just for you alone. The thing is we would never treat those external best friend(s) like you do to this best friend. The thing is when you really connect, inside, and connect in communicating what you want, things happen like magic. You see you have to know that whatever you think about most of the time is what you get, whether you like it or not. This generally creates anxiety, fear, low-self esteem, and unconfidence as your best friend attempts to protect you from those things by using the power of your imagination. So let's dive deeper into how we can think

When and how to find new opportunities Was lockdown, locked in, the best time to find opportunities? Really??? Or was that just 'clickbait' or reframing a bad situation which I don't think helped those who had to keep working hard - they didn't get any time to have the best time. So when is the best time? the best time to find new opportunities and make a difference to you and make your dreams come to fruition? Well in this 5-minute quickie I'll share with you what you already know but you didn't know you know. Sorry, this is so simple but it just works, and with a little suspension of your negative beliefs and open your mind up to all things uncritically and find what is hiding inside your mind. Enter into the DREAMING state!!!!!!!!

WTF Let's Go First In a slightly explicit way Yup, a little swearing but not a lot, and I think it's in the most appropriate way. And as many episodes, this started with a journal, a read, and a Youtube video all colliding in my head. There is so much wisdom known in this world that has been around for 'donkey's' years (a technical word or ages), it's not hidden and makes so much sense yet how many take the time to use it and what would happen if they, we, you and I did? And from a couple of questions, I came to a conclusion and a question just for you. And....... It's an important question that I know will change your life and others around you and you will have to add "Am I up for this?" Yet it will only change your life if you answer it with positive intention and Action. and I wouldn't ask you if I thought you weren't the person I know you to be or that you wouldn't see, hear, and feel the importance of it. Yes I know I'm being vague and I want to spark that curiosity in you to follow the thoughts and tea

3 Steps To End Procrastination Really? Yes! And before you say or think "is this clickbait?" How very dare you! No, I want to show how to overcome procrastination simply and easily and take off that badge we can wear. Do I procrastinate? Of course I do!  I'm human and have my struggles and it's through those struggles I found this way. It's not the only way but it does work. And because it works it's only right that I share it with you. It is simple (in simplicity there is genius) but it doesn't do it by itself, you do have to take action. Remember do it over theory?  And when you put this into action the results are spectactular. It's also right that you shouldn't put off sharing this episode: https://personaldevelopmentunplugged.com/250-3-steps-to-end-procrastination/ or the whole Personal Development Unplugged podcast to a select few or better still everyone you know. It's so important to get our message out there and making a difference. Shine brightly Paul Please remember you can leave a comment or emai

Q and A of a sort Or The Answer is only as good as the Question Very few share, at least who I know of, the power of questions and what to ask and how to ask - Tim Ferriss is a great one. Some try too hard and be too clever and fall down in giving a great service, a great habit, and a great way to problem-solve or seek the answers to your dreams And to my downfall, trying not to try too hard, not hard enough, found there are questions that don't need to be answered in the here and now but to experience the answers first hand and those that need musing. ANd I'll share with you if you come with me, both kinds and more importantly the 'How To' part that so many leave you hanging over. Because that's one of the foundational values of this podcast - to share everything especially the 'how too'. There is always a price to this knowledge though. "What I thought this was free Cloughie?!!!!" No, the cost is sharing this and what you learn to everyone, the ultimate pay it forward. Here's the link for this episode: http

Good! I Get To Do This The rare and wonderful five-minute quickie - a short podcast that I hope gets you thinking (and doing).

A Sharing from Loren Swift self-connection, a simple way to know what to say next We have a treat in this episode - A guest in the name of Loren Swift - Sharing another view, a different perspective, and we see how closely we strive albeit from slightly different backgrounds. I’ve included an expanded description of what she means below: “Metaphorically, it reminds me of a stone dropping into the mirrored surface of a pond. The deeper the stone descends, the wider the ripples of understanding spread. So it is with us. Deep self-connection affords us a wide range of insights via our expanded awareness. It gives us access to our hearts and minds, to intuitive awakening and creativity, to one another, and to spirit. Self-connection is also the basis from which we can skillfully navigate the world around us, from clear communication to conscious choice-making.” I'm really grateful that Loren took the time to walk the talk in sharing with us and please show your appreciation by giving Loren a wave at connecting
