Description

This week Rob talks about the influences he has had from reading, particularly the book ‘Words to Live By' by Eknath Easwaran. Words to Live By talks about giving an insight into yourself. About inspiration, understanding and developing personal skills so that you can create more rewarding work.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Rob says that by choosing the right book and dedicating 10-15 mins a day to reading it can be transformative to your mindset. It can be any book, it can be about your niche, your development, anything!
• It can be helpful to look at those further along the journey than yourself, you can see things that you also see in yourself as well as what it takes to get where you want to be.
• Rob introduced meditation to some of his team and found it to have significant value.
• Relationships are so important in all areas of life, they are worth the time and investment even when you don't feel like you have the energy to nurture and develop them. You can get incredible results with the right relationships in place.
• Self-belief is a powerful force. You have to believe in you. You need to believe in yourself, what you are doing, the people you surround yourself with and have belief in your life. If you do not have belief yet then that needs to be your next step in the journey.
• Make your demands on yourself so small that they don't even ‘bother' you. Just creating the habit of doing something is the important aspect for success.

BEST MOMENTS

“If you want to be a leader, be a manager, be a coach, you have to deal with yourself first”

“Sometimes those hard conversations give us tremendous results”

“How many times have you come away from an interaction with someone where you have felt listened to, understood, connected?”

“Wow I can actually make a difference in my own life here”
