The Podcast | To Succeed... Just Let Go
Episode #121
Show Notes
I spend half my life talking about stuff that doesn't actually exist... annoyance, frustration, worry, anxiety, stress, panic - all a figment of God knows whose imagination (this episode explains exactly what I mean by that).
In this episode we explore how we make "sense" of our daily lives (we actually make complete and utter nonsense of them), we explore the process known to psychology as cognitive appraisal.
You'll discover that your mood "enables" you choose your thoughts which, in turn, create your mood! Yes, if you need to read that sentence again, off you go - the essence of madness.
But there is so much more to this episode than just that. Understanding the function of cognitive appraisal makes what we have to do to break the automatic cycle all the more effortless.
As you might imagine, it all comes down to choice. As you might not imagine, it's a simple little choice - get this choice right and everything else begins to effortlessly fall into place. And, you know what, you discover how to enjoy life.

I think differently. I'm more focused, yet relaxed and have achieved a much better life, both at work and away from work. I noticed change within ten days, as did those closest to me.

It has been great at really explaining in depth all the subjects that Willie raises, including face to face discussions and a chance to ask all those questions. It's a journey on the discovery of a new dimension.

I found my ideal job having followed this online program, and not in a way I would ever have expected. My engineer’s “logical” mind can’t even recall applying for the role!
Learn it then do it, it’s that simple. It’s still delivering results for me.
