Life to the Full

Would you notice if someone stole half your money? Would you be mad? Would you notice if it happened over 20 years? Would you put up with it if you knew it was happening?

Well, that’s exactly what’s happening to you right now right in front of your eyes!

Inflation is the government stealing your money.

Every time there is inflation, that’s the government stealing your money.

I was once asked by my brother in law "Why should I care about Bitcoin?"

This has many answers and in fact the answers may be different for different people but I've been musing and studying for a long time now and I am convinced that if you care about inequality, you should care about Bitcoin. Let me know what you think!

A crazy idea occurred to me the other day when I was listening to Joshua Sheats on the Radical Personal Finance podcast, one of my favourite podcasts, why don't I share this so that more people can hear it!
This is chapter 6 of the audiobook I'm working on at the moment. It's The Richest Man in Babylon. If you haven't listened to chapter 1 yet then head back to episode 24 before you pick up on this one!
It's a parable set in ancient Babylon which has immense profound wisdom that is still applicable today about building streams of income and looking after our finances.

Happy St David's Day! What a wonderful day to be Welsh. Even more wonderful than the other 365 days of the year (it's a leap year after all!)

A brief reflection on lessons on living Life to the Full from a 6th-century saint!

Motivation sucks for reliably getting stuff done. If we always wait until we're motivated to do stuff, we'll never get anywhere.
Discipline trumps motivation any day of the week.
But... there's something better than discipline.

Have you got a vision for your life? If you look into the future, what do you want to have? What do you want to do? What do you want to be? Who will be there with you? If you haven’t done this yet, I would love to encourage you to spend some time thinking and dreaming and writing down what you would like your life to be like in 20 years. 20 years is a pretty long time. It’s as long as you’ll need to achieve pretty much anything you’d like to achieve. I said it last week, even if you don't know how you're going to get there, at least knowing where you want to get to, means you're not either wandering around aimlessly or worse still, not going anywhere.

Today we dive into building a massive vision for your life, which can serve as your optimisation cue when faced with choices in life.

A master in the art of living draws no sharp distinction between his work and his play; his labour and his leisure; his mind and his body; his education and his recreation. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence through whatever he is doing, and leaves others to determine whether he is working or playing. To himself, he always appears to be doing both.

I love this quote. I've changed my mind on some things and retiring early is one of them. I actually want to build a life that I don't want to retire from. I want to become a Master in the Art of Living. Let's unpack what that means.

It’s one of my favourite times of year. That time between Christmas and New Year, when all the excitement of Christmas is over but I’m not working and I’m able to spend some relaxing time with my family and friends and also to reflect back on the past year and look forward to and plan my goals for the next year.

And the more I read about it, the more I realise (a) “man setting goals is ridiculously important”. And (b) “man, most people (including me), don’t give anywhere near enough attention to goal-setting as we should".

I want to give you three frameworks for you to use to make 2024 a year where you make meaningful progress towards living Life to the Full.

Merry Christmas Eve you wonderful podcast listeners. Thank you so much for your ears and attention this year. I wanted to jump on the microphone once more before Christmas to bring a reflection on Frankincense that I shared at church a few years ago. Christmas is a wonderful time to slow down and to meditate on what we're celebrating. I had no idea what Frankincense was until I wrote this meditation. I hope you enjoy and learn something new!

Merry Christmas!

I went a bit rouge last time and broke out of season 3 to bring you an emergency episode "Your emergency fund is not for emergencies. Ok, so what's it for?"
Today, we're back in season 3 for a deep dive into nutrition. We'll look at

- What the key macro and micro nutrients we eat do.
- Why ultra processed food is making us sick and stupid.
- The four types of food we should definitely be eating.
- Why we should grow and forage more of our own food.
- How to still eat healthily when you want to smash a litre of Ben and Jerry's.
and - What making pasta from scratch means to me.
