[14] Knowing Thyself Part II: Honour thy Father and thy Mother
<p>Peter is a professor of engineering at the University of Queensland and a published author. He has taught students for decades across a range of different subject matters and in this conversation he shares his research and personal experience on the importance of the relationships we have with our parents.</p><p><br></p><p>Join this conversation as we explore the synergy between science and faith, parental relationships and their enduring impacts on our happiness, finances and family, as well as the capacity for growth we unlock by breaking the restrictive vows we make with ourselves.</p><p><br></p><p>I extend my sincerest gratitude to Peter as I learned so much from this exchange. Reflecting on <strong>the seeds that were planted in my garden from this were:</strong></p><p>- The most important skills a parent can impart unto their child is the capacity to love and to trust. As love and trust form the bedrock of all our meaningful long-term relationships.</p><p>- A lifelong inability to manage one's anger was the single biggest contributor to an unsuccessful and unfulfilling work life.</p><p>- The vows we make against our parents or traits they possess can cause us to repeat the same poor decisions time and time again.</p><p>- We are more than capable of changing our behaviours and vows, we can utilise three mechanisms to do so: the <strong>Conviction Mechanism</strong> (Reviewing evidence that convinces us we are doing the right thing),<strong> the Faith Mechanism</strong> (Reaffirming our path through belief, gratitude and prayer) and <strong>the Community Mechanism</strong> (Seeking support, role modelling and engagement from our community)</p><p>- Our parents are only human, they make mistakes and they can't teach us everything and so it is ok to seek mothering and fathering from others for different things.</p><p><br></p><p>I am so appreciative for your parents, for without them we would not be blessed with the wonders of you!</p><p>Until our next exchange, continue to embody all that you seek and you will plant seeds of synergy in the soil of every moment. </p><p><br></p><p>Links:</p><p>Peter's book: <a href="https://www.connorcourtpublishing.com.au/The-Father-Factor--Peter-OShea-and-Robert-Falzon_p_160.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">The Father Factor</a></p><p><a href="https://www.adultdevelopmentstudy.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Harvard GRANT study </a></p><p>Andrade and Ariely's paper: Search "The enduring impact of transient emotions on decision making"</p><p></p><p><br></p>

[013] Once Upon a Time in... Brisbane
<p>In this exchange I am joined by my friend Ben {Norto}. We have known one another for over a decade and I can confidently say that he is one of the most electric, engaging and enchanting personalities I have come across.</p><p><br /></p><p>So join us as we navigate friendship, storytelling, addictions and our experiences as gen z’s living in Brisbane.</p><p> </p><p>The seeds that were planted in my garden from Norto's insights were:</p><p>- Enjoy every moment life has to offer. We get dealt good and bad hands throughout, play with a smile.</p><p>- The profound impact that reading and movies have on fostering creativity, vocabulary and story telling ability. </p><p>- How to find it within ourselves to forgive people, especially friends, for mistakes they have made.</p><p>- Use 'black and white' mode on your phone to reduce stimulation and in turn screen time.</p><p>- Don’t be afraid to be yourself. Afterall, “Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering” - Yoda</p><p> </p><p>Until our next exchange, continue to embody all that you seek, and you will plant seedsof synergy <strong>in the soil of every moment</strong></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>

[012] Knowing Thyself | Part I: Foundations
<p>In this series we will unpack and explore the why, what and how of discovering who we are.</p><p>It is a blueprint for finding personal truth through questions that have been asked for millennia—questions that<strong>, only we can answer for ourselves.</strong> Foundations covers the five foundational truths:</p><p>1. Humans experience suffering due to our attachment to desires</p><p>2. Our Ego is responsible in part for our desires and attaches our sense of self to forms (material, mental and emotional)</p><p>3. Our thoughts, words and actions shape the reality we experience</p><p>4. Awareness is the key to the cessation of our suffering</p><p>5. The present moment is all that we have to learn, love and experience. </p><p><br /></p><p>The foundational approaches to raising awareness of ourselves are:</p><p>1. To observe our breath - therein lies the present and so too, the answer to all that we seek.</p><p>2. Consciously stretch and move the body. Through this we foster a mind-body connection.</p><p>More to come in later episodes!</p><p>Until then continue to embody all that you seek, and you will plant seeds of synergy <strong>in the soil of every moment.</strong></p><p><br /></p><p><strong>Link:</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.immortalarts.org/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><strong>Immortal Arts Qi Gong</strong></a></p>
