Last week, I was interviewed by Maurice Dimino on his
International Sicilian Shotgun. I talked for an hour on the
principles of 'How to Be More to Achieve More'.
Thank you to those who took the time to send me feedback. Based
on the comments of others, I would strongly recommend downloading
this as an mp3 and taking an hour to listen to it. During the
recording, I share my thoughts on what I perceive as the 7
principles of high achievement with lots of suggestions on how to
apply them.
If you haven't the time to read the rest of this blogpost.

Yesterday, I was listening to a song by Jimi Hendrix called
'Castles in the Sand' and the lyrics reminded me of why this
material is so important. The lyric goes that 'Castles in the sand,
fall into the sea eventually'. If you want to create something that
is sustainable you need firm foundations. It is what is on the
'inside' that determines how robust the structure is on the
'outside'. The reality is you have to work on both in tandem.
Many businesses come and go. Many successful people crumble and
fall. The singer George Michael was yesterday jailed for 8 weeks
for driving under the influence of cannabis. He had crashed into a
shop in North London. Where he hit the wall someone had written
'Wham'! That bit I admit amused me! However, George Michael is a
very talented man but for some reason his foundations keep letting
him down. That saddens me. Some people have so much opportunity and
yet at times crumble. As a talented celebrity the extra publicity
may help his career. But such an incident would not for the
majority of us.
If our actions are not getting the results we want we must first
look at our thinking. This is the first principle. Our actions
reflect the quality of our thinking and combined with making good
decisions are the foundation for our success in life.
So if you are looking to move forward. If you want to grow
personally and achieve something significant with your life. If you
want to move your business forward or are serious about becoming a
shining success in your organisation, you can download some
thoughts here that I sincerely hope will help you. Develop firm
foundations, don't be another 'castle made of sand'.
