(VISION) Calling All Dreamers

For many people, the prospect of being tied down to one industry or job is not fulfilling as it does not excite or stimulate their minds. However, through the process of socialisation these people are surrounded by the ideology that becoming a specialist or pursuing  'realistic' goals are the norm and conform to this expectation and consequently suppress their passions.  They are pushed aside due to the fear of failure or being judged for being 'unrealistic'. Reader, it is now I tell you that your eyes are projecting your own beliefs. If you believe that your goals are only a far fetched desire and not an attainable reality then you will look for reasons to not pursue these goals with tenacity and conviction. If  you want to become a world champion boxer as well as a successful entrepreneur AS WELL as a mentor to millions then go for it. If you want to be a musician as well as a psychiatrist then make that dream a reality! You are only stopping yourselves. The difference between you and your idols are your beliefs. They believed that they were worthy of their success, do you? They pursued their passion with tenacity and conviction , will you? And most importantly, they were willing to commit to converting a far fetched desire into an attainable reality ... Are you?

You are able to achieve anything that you desire. The only thing that stops most of us from achieving our dreams is our ability to justify why something isn't good enough - we are pretty good at that. The process of converting your desires into reality are a mixture of beliefs and decisions and over the next few entries I aim to use what I am learning on my own journey to help you create the best version of yourself.

Further materials:
At the end of each entry I will post links to material that has inspired my post. This post was inspired by Georges St - Pierres' 'The Way Of The Fight' and Anthony Robbins 'Awaken The Giant Within'. Both books are great insights on how beliefs and decisions we make can impact our future selves - I would strongly recommend them both.

(VISION) Expand Your Framework: The Importance of Clarity and Purpose in achieving any goal.

Hey Guys! The 'Expand Your Framework' podcast  is back and in this episode we will be discussing why clarity of vision and purpose are so important to achieving your goals.  You can listen to and download the episode here. Below you will find a summary of the episode if you are hard of hearing/deaf or prefer to write things down. The importance of CLARITY If your vision of success is not clear, then how can you expect to achieve your goals? Unfortunately, in order to achieve clarity of vision EXTENSIVE PLANNING IS KEY.

What Is Masculinity?

It has recently become an interest of mine to explore the question “what is masculinity?”. Masculinity has long been associated with power, dominance, and authority but often, these components are in reference to   particular groups of people. Generally speaking, the most common form of masculinity is embodied by white, middle class and usually heterosexual men. This is sometimes referred to as "hegemonic" masculinity (although the term and it's ideas are  a lot more complex once you read further in to it).  There are however many other forms of masculinity that identifying men use to express themselves. Mas culinity, like most forms of social identity is  performative – this means that as men we perform masculinity in reference to what we think best embodies or defines the term. So to clarify, whilst hegemonic is largely viewed as the dominant form of masculinity, it is not the only form that exists.  Often though, men try to emulate dominant i...
