There Are Seasons Before Us - Gary Clarke

In this very special series of episodes, Paul talks to the co-authors of his amazing new book, ‘Mastering The Game Of Life’, in which twenty global co-writers have shared stories about how they have mastered this ever-evolving game. In this episode, Paul is joined by Gary Clarke, to discuss the many ups and downs that life can throw at us, and how Gary himself has found the mental fortitude to see his way through. KEY TAKEAWAYS All it takes is one small diversion in life to set us on the wrong path. We must be constantly vigilant of our place in the world, and how others see us. Nothing in life ever comes easy. Usually the simplest path through life is to not take responsibility for your effect on others. It takes will power to take yourself away from the easy, detrimental path. We must consider the effects that our journey and story may have on future generations. Hero worship of darker souls can lead to perpetual negativity. We have a real responsibility. BEST MOMENTS ‘As a young lad, I chose the wrong path in life’ ’That thin line in life - we can just fall the wrong side of it for whatever reason’ ‘Once you get in that way of life it’s like a drug - it’s very hard to get out of’ VALUABLE RESOURCES Mastering The Game Of Life   Gary Clarke Twitter - https://twitter.com/GBoatsy ABOUT THE HOST One thing that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – something he is totally aware of.  He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned the iconic ‘Think Different’ Apple commercial narrated by Steve Jobs in 1977:  “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!” Paul has a long and distinguished history of coaching & mentoring – particularly focusing on helping people make the transition from pain to purpose; a journey he has made himself, from the depths of a deep dark existence, to now living a life of happiness and prosperity. Through this Mastering The Game Of Life podcast, and books he has been involved in – including being a best-selling co-author – Paul also helps others to get their own inspirational messages and stories out into the world; as well as offering support to many charitable organisations, in their development & fund-raising. “Remember – Mastering The Game Of Life Starts, By Embracing Our Hearts!” CONTACT METHODS Tel: +44 (0) 115 7270101 E-mail: [email protected] Twitter: https://twitter.com/IAMPaulLowe Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IamPaulLowe/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-d-lowe-7a78332a/
