(VISION) How Do I Get To The Next Level?

Everybody wants to level up, but often they make the process so much more convoluted than it really is.

Levelling up, or improvement is just a habit. With anything in life, consistency beats all. How much time per day do you allocate to improving your skillset, improving your knowledge or improving yourself as a person? These questions aren't being asked to make you feel shitty, but rather to unearth the possibility that you're not levelling up because you're not being consistent in your endeavours or because you don't know exactly WHAT you are trying to improve.

As discussed in previous material, clarity of vision is essential to success, but supplementary to this clarity of vision is the consistency of habits - what are you doing every day to bring you closer to levelling up?

I discussed this concept in my recently launched exam preparation eBook which you can download for free here.

To summarise, I used the example of exam revision to enforce the notion that it is not how 'hard' you work but rather how 'smart' you work. The same principle applies to levelling up. You don't have to commit endless hours to improve, all you need is a consistent, allocated time frame in which you dedicate to improving whatever it is you want to improve.

Consistent habits bring consistent results. This is a very similar concept to that of the Japanese philosophy of 'Kaizen' or continuous improvement. This perspective embodies consistent , marginal gains in order to continually improve the product, person or idea that is under scrutiny. This perspective does not aim for massive improvement as  large scale changes are very difficult to seek and implement consistently. Instead, the small scale changes that can be consistently implemented are made a priority in order to one day produce a completely revitalised product, person or idea.

Your success lies not in the speed, size or scale of your improvement, but rather the consistency in which this improvement can be maintained.

(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. If you aren't prepared to plan your moves, your chances of success are SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED. *Some ways to plan in regards to goal setting - ask yourself 'what do I want to achieve?' , 'how am I going to do this?' , 'what obstacles are going to potentially stop me from achieving my goals?' and 'how can I overcome this obstacles?'. Chances are, if you have prepared for set backs, you are less likely to wa...

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...
