Paul is exploring the world through his eyes and those of Julia; the latter being part of today's younger generation. Together they provide an insightful and balanced view of how different generations could come together successfully.
This podcast also demonstrates how different generational viewpoints share many more underlying commonalities than you might initially think, a fascinating listen tune-in now.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
You can’t stereotype young people any more than you can stereotype any group of people but there are obvious variances and one of those is technology
Technology
The internet is a good thing, but it means you don’t have to go out or use a variety of sources such as books, to access the world; it is all there in front of you
Technology has helped people to be much more aware of the dangers in the world
The younger generation conducts their lives via social media. They don’t always want to engage with other people face-to-face
There are not many resources that educate older people about technology but having these skills could help them to feel less lonely; as it would be so easy to connect with others
Communication
Previously you formed relationships by talking to people. The instant gratification world of today was non-existent, and you had to actually talk to other people!
People are growing up with more anxiety than previous generations and communicating with others face-to-face can be a source of concern for some individuals
Happiness
Being the best we can be, will bring us happiness. If the prospect of working for an employer 9-5 every day is what makes you feel unhappy then you need to take action
You must take the power back and decide what you’re going to do, when you’re going to do it and how you’re going to do it
You will need to take action to facilitate the journey into a new life if you take no action everything will remain the same
Everybody is different and it’s about finding out what’s best for you. Wherever you are in life is irrelevant, it’s what you are doing now that’s important.
It's conditioning and labels that create self-limiting beliefs and create a self-fulfilling prophecy
BEST MOMENTS
‘People do the best they can from their level of awareness at that time’
‘Maybe if there was more communication between the generations, we would understand each other better’
‘Do what makes you happy, do what you want to do, let life happen through you, not to you’
‘Events in life are neutral - it’s the emotion we attach to them’
‘We irrespective of our generation have to be adaptable and empathetic’
‘Entrepreneurs seek happiness in a different way’
‘The only power and energy something has, is what you give it’
‘We have to put more boundaries in place these days because there are more threats now’

ABOUT THE HOST
Something that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – for which he is immensely proud. He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned – in the Steve Jobs quote:
“Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
