Hey wonderful people,Hope you're well and the week was a winner or you're gearing up to take on an exciting few days ahead.Here's an excerpt from my diary titled, "The Power of Character". An idea of adaptation through empowered identities to move us through our daily challenges, however big or small. It's a great idea, nothing new, but it was great to put it into my own words.Hope you enjoy it and thank you as always for listening.Don't forget to like, subscribe or rate and review, leave a comment if you like and leave something behind to help me grow this community.

Dear all, Thank you incredibly for your patience, your kindness and your understanding as this episodes get to you a little later than usual. I wholeheartedly appreciate you, this community and our listening audience. This episode is a super helpful one for ownership of our own mistakes, reconciling that we can't control everything and understanding that the responsibility to turn up is something that is shared not only by those who surround us in the moment, but those who have been in the same position well before us. We're never alone and we're never as separated as we feel or may think we are. You will get through this. If you are feeling alone, affected by the episode's contents or potentially you're having a tough week or month please talk to a friend, family, health professional or reach out to organisations like LifeLine or BeyondBlue in Australia and other services that can help you out wherever you might be around the world. Sending my best to you all and take care. be speaking to you very soon. Joel Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Joy of Consequence, after watching my sister, her husband and their kids for the past few days it was fascinating to look at how they shared consequence and reward with their children. The idea of delayed gratification and achieving a set goal is something I'm continuously fascinated with because all too often in my industry the goal posts are continuously being shifted and increasingly hard to aim for. But if we can set ourselves a goal with a reward that is fathomable and a consequence that is unendurable we can start to see the path towards achievement as being paved by the joy of consequence. Listen in to the episode for more, hope you enjoy.

A reflection on my experience watching the live musicians bring to life the score of the smash hit Max Martin musical, "&Juliet". It was utterly mind blowing and their teamwork, dedication, attention to detail and effort was astounding. It inspired me for my efforts moving forward while on tour for Black Swan State Theatre Company performing Barracking for the Umpire around Western Australia and I hope there is something that inspires you too.

An excerpt from my journal, April 5 2023. From a time when I was being exceptionally clear about what I wanted for myself in my future because the present was a little murky. No doubt we've all questioned the direction of our travel, the course that we choose and at this time last year I was doing just that. I'm so glad though in 2024, I chose to use an excerpt from my diary from almost exactly a year ago to reflect on how far I've come. I hope this weeks episode is an invitation for your own self reflection or maybe even to start jotting down some notes about where you want to be. The clearer the vision, the straighter the aim, the smaller the target, the better the strike. Stay the course and enjoy the tidings.

An excerpt from my journal, March 11th 2024. We all inhibit our own growth, potential and excellence in some way shape or form. We inhibit the potential to connect on a wonderfully deep and empathetic level with those around us because of the nature of modern intrusions. Why not step back, assess what it is that stops us from fully engaging with tasks, fellow humans and our goals and be done with it? With this episode, I investigate my own procrastination cycles and also how I label it to better engage with the act of removing it effectively.

An excerpt from my journal, March 6th 2024The self pity party that is conjured up when indulging the sensation of lack is woeful, it swallows me whole sometimes.But in recognising this pattern and the minds' traps, I've made some notes about how best to acknowledge it, act upon it and finally look past it.Hope the insight and the offerings helps you on your own quest and discoveries.Sending my best and be sure to like, subscribe or rate and review, wherever and however you're listening to the podcast.Follow along at @JoelJacksonOfficial on instagram for more insights and updates.

An excerpt from my Journal, March 1st 2024. Taken from the pages of Jack Carr's book, following the adventures of an ex Navy Seal the words 'fast is fine, accuracy is final' haunts my moves. In such a wonderful way, might I say. Do it right the first time, but also be incredibly clear about the path you choose. Find your target, assert the path and dominate the course of action. Fast is fine, but your targeted accuracy of action and intention will make all the difference.

A hopeful way to appreciate change when you're experiencing flux, knowing that it is exactly what we were created to do. As all things about us change and develop and grow. A thrillingly natural sensation and gift. Enjoy the change. Thank you, as always, for listening and sharing in the community.

Here's a little allegory to sweep you into the week ahead or to help you capture the week that was. It's about viewing the mind as you would a tumultuous sky. Letting thoughts run their course, tiring themselves out as they traipse across the sky, disengaged and totally focused on the task at hand. You can preserver through storms, listen to the podcast to find out who else makes very good use of persevering through severe storms and weather systems. SPOILER - bonus material at the end of the episode to celebrate that most commercialised holiday; 'Valentine's Day', I'm a romantic at heart so I couldn't help it. Send it to someone you love or hold it to your heart as you wait to find the one.

An excerpt from my journal, 9th February 2024. I've always been curious about the science of manifestation and the power of resonating with your ambition, dream and actions; maybe my words can't capture my own imaginings and thoughts in this episode - but I tried in my journal on the 9th to speak some kind of truth into it.

Inspired by conversations with friends regarding our own intentions of being the best we can be, but also wanting the best from those around us and those we chose to surround ourselves with.
