Are You Aware Of Negative Thought Patterns? QTL| 031

This episode of Question This Life is a solo episode with your host. Key Topics of discussion: PART 1 - How much we create a 'cocktail of worry' in our own minds - even from the most inocuous events - learning to spot this and not allow it to take control. - Update on last week's episode; that moment when you realise the worry you created in your mind and shared with your podcast audience was all much ado about nothing! Which is often the way... - Observing the things that affect you, writing about them, reflecting on them - and notice WHY they make you feel defensive, negative or fearful, which in turn doesnt allow those thoughts to take hold. - The ever-present concepts of gratitude, abundance and positive thinking - to overcome doubt, fear and scarceity. - The concept of your inner child, traumas, worries - and getting past them using new persepectives and growth. - Progress update regarding the latest comedy shows on stage; enjoying the latest spell of performing, hosting, running shows and working on being myself, finding a flow and finding my voice on stage. - The process of getting more comfortable with conversing with the audience i.e. 'crowd work' - not always relying on material, but rather concocting a nice mix of both aspects. - Finally being able to book and hopefully travel to go home, to see close family and friends - the relief. PART 2 - The feeling of that you're being 'judged' by strangers, or people in a room / environment - when really you are just a spec in their reality like they are one in yours. - The highs and lows that come with often feeling empathetic, open and agreeable. - Incorrectly feeling that other people are thinking about you - rather than their own thoughts and worries. Turning this concept on its head - when you observe other people. - Experiencing that feeling in a scenario where no-one is observing you - as a way to help realise that that these feelings of being 'under scrutiny' just come and go in life, and are not reflective of reality. - Always aiming to be confident and forthright in the world but also to stay humble, not claiming to know the answers to everything, understanding that we can be wrong, make mistakes - and most importantly grow. This is a completely free plug for a fantastic personality course that will quickly help you Question This Life and understand more about your traits and virtues. It's available at: https://understandmyself.com/ This test and other associated products changed the way I looked at my life, my career, my time, my virtues, my traits - and is a big reason why I am doing the things I am doing today, living a life based in meaning and not wasting my time doing things I don't want to be doing.

Are Your Words Succinct And Your Thoughts Useful? QTL | 030

This episode of Question This Life is a solo episode with your host. Key Topics: PART 1 - Being succinct. The challenge of getting your thoughts out through your spoken word quickly and succinctly. - The challenges of being long-winded, struggling to get your thoughts out quickly. - The feeling like your words are slower than your thoughts - playing catch up with what's already coming out of your mouth. - The interesting different types of personalities that you come across in social situations - how people deal with communicating differently. - The feeling of 'missing your turn' to speak - in conversation, especially in a group setting. - Coming to terms with the fact that you don't have to feel pressured to be entertaining, funny, insightful, interesting - you can also just 'be' there. - The advice from professional comedians - including Tony Hinchliffe - regarding removing unnecessary fat and detail from your jokes, and integrating this advice into day-to-day life. PART 2 - How much the 'stories' we make up in our minds influence our reality - keeping aware of this. - An example from the host's week gone by where the possibility to overthink, and make more of a nothing situation, was present and was caught just in time. - How your 'inner child' traumas still have the ability to influence your life today, unhelpfully making mountains out of molehills in your mind. - Remembering the concept that the opinion other people have about you is absolutely none of your business. - Remembering the concepts of abundance and gratitude -whenever the possibility to overthink and make negative stories in your mind pops up. - Not allowing your mind to wander, and get yourself derailed when fear or anxiety pops up, but rather always choosing to be grateful for what you do have, and remembering that you have everything you need. - The concept of not harbouring fear or resentment with anyone from your past - but rather learning from the experience, integrating any pain and suffering and becoming stronger. - Realising that when you go through multiple scenarios in your mind this is you causing yourself stress, causing yourself worry - and not helping the situation whatsoever. - The principle of sending positive wishes to the people who inluenced you negatively in the past well, 'praying' for them, empathising with their situation that made them so negative to you, and integrating that positive emotion switch into your frame of mind. - Realising that all the fear, doubt, worry and pain suffered in the past sharpens you, makes you stronger and points you into the direction where you actually want to go. - Realising that if you are doing something unique, worthwhile and interesting - following your heart and your passions - this will definitely rub people up the wrong way. Negative feedback from negative people can also be a sign you are doing things right. This is a completely free plug for an excellent online self-assessment personality test that anyone can quickly and easily do for themselves. It's available at: https://understandmyself.com/ This test and other associated products changed the way I looked at my life, my career, my time, my virtues, my traits - and is a big reason why I am doing the things I am doing today, living a life based in meaning and not wasting my time doing things I don't want to be doing.
