  • Why intention Is More Effective Than Traditional Goal Setting with Paul Davis

    Why intention Is More Effective Than Traditional Goal Setting with Paul Davis
    Jul 8 2025
    Doug interviews Paul Davis, a business growth consultant and author of "Genius Unlocked." Paul shares his methodology for finding life purpose, challenging popular concepts like ‘start with why’ and passion based approaches. He explains his four-element framework and advocates using intentions instead of goals and shares stories about achieving targets through rewards like biplane wing walks. The conversation covers why conventional advice about purpose may be flawed and how to align with your true mission in life. KEY TAKEAWAYS • Use intentions instead of goals, intentions create stronger commitment and act as a contract with yourself and the universe beyond the usual goal setting. • Your true purpose is set from birth and never changes, though it develops and evolves throughout your lifetime. • Passions are temporary and the word means to suffer. Focus on what provides lasting fulfilment through your core drivers. • Universe operates a three-stage warning system: Gentle nudges (feathers), then setbacks (bricks), finally major disruptions (trucks) guide you toward your purpose. • Four elements define your genius, inspiration (divine guidance), quest (life mission), drivers (fulfilment sources), and role (natural archetype) work together. • Avoid planning the "how" and instead set clear intentions but let inspiration and opportunities guide your path rather than forcing detailed plans. • People make decisions based on personal benefit, not company purpose or brand mission statements which is why the ‘start with why’ philosophy is so flawed. • Track both current and completed intentions. Use systems like Trello to monitor progress and maintain motivation through visible achievement records. BEST MOMENTS "Every single human being will only do something when they perceive that there's more benefits than drawbacks to themselves." "Your quest is not enjoyable. Believe me, your quest is not enjoyable, but that's your mission to achieve." "The feather are those gentle nudges that you get from the unconscious and everybody gets them... That's your unconscious.” ABOUT THE GUEST Paul Davis, a renowned business growth consultant and intuitive personal advisor helping entrepreneurs build a better business, a better life and a better world. https://davisbusinessconsultants.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/pauldavisdublin/ https://davisbusinessconsultants.com/book-shop/ VALUABLE RESOURCES Website: http://dougbennett.co.uk/ Email: doug@dougbennett.co.uk LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/financialdoug/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/FinancialDoug Facebook Wealth Tribe: https://join.dougbennett.co.uk/ Download Your "Ten-Step Guide To Financial Freedom" Here: https://bit.ly/Struggle-Success BOOKS: Goals Do Come True is now live and available to buy on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3phcy6Z Think Simple, Win Big is now live and available to buy on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Think-Simple-Win-Big-Business/ Enjoy, and come back for the latest podcast each Wednesday.

  • Why Achieving Big Goals Requires Grieving Your Old Self Caroline Antonia of Rebellious Business

    Why Achieving Big Goals Requires Grieving Your Old Self Caroline Antonia of Rebellious Business
    Jul 1 2025
    Caroline Antonia from Rebellious Business joins Doug in this episode. Caroline talks about the painful reality of personal growth, comparing goal achievement to the grieving process. From her entrepreneurial journey that started with selling CDs at age 9 to building a thriving business network, Caroline shares why she believes goals require emotional sacrifice and identity shifts. Discover her unique perspective on personality tests, the "woo woo era" of goal setting, and why she thinks achieving big goals means saying goodbye to parts of yourself. KEY TAKEAWAYS • Grief is part of goal achievement and setting meaningful goals often requires letting go of your current identity and grieving the person you're leaving behind, which can be emotionally painful but necessary. • Subconscious goals get achieved more than conscious ones. Goals that feel meaningful and aligned with your deeper purpose are more likely to manifest than surface-level desires you write down without commitment. • While personality tests and similar can provide insight into who you are, they can create deterministic thinking that boxes you in rather than empowering you to grow. • Start with achievable milestones. When your big goal feels too distant to visualise, focus on the furthest point you can clearly see and make that your interim target to maintain momentum. • Instead of forcing yourself into a narrow niche, focus on clearly communicating your unique value proposition, which will naturally attract the right audience. • Emotional connection is crucial for goal achievement. Writing goals as if already achieved isn't enough; you must genuinely feel the emotions associated with having accomplished them to engage your subconscious mind. • Meaningful goals will make you question your identity and push you beyond what feels safe or familiar, creating necessary pressure for growth. BEST MOMENTS "I find that so far a lot of things that I work towards or that I really set my sights on, they require grief. I always have to grief an element of myself, which has been holding myself back." "What have I been doing this whole time? Like, why have I been playing so small? And I don't feel like that's fair because I think we're doing pretty well." "The pressure is an indication to shed. I haven't used that analogy for years... but the pressure is something that forces them to grow." "I'd embrace the pain, embrace the sadness of what was and what you could have done sooner. You know, that for me I find really painful."

  • Creating Your Own Luck and Building Wealth with Dan Leonardi

    Creating Your Own Luck and Building Wealth with Dan Leonardi
    Jun 25 2025
    Doug talks with Dan Leonardi, who went from Pepsi truck driver to corporate executive after quitting college. The career strategist and founder of Leonardi Personal Development worked at companies like Pepsi, Kellogg's, and ConAgra. He built a 35-unit condo complex to pay for his sons' college education and shares his approach to creating your own luck. At 68, Dan has released his book "Be the CEO of Your Life" and teaches students how to bridge theory with practical application. He explains the 70-20-10 rule that shows why relationships and experiences matter more than education and reveals how inverting traditional leadership structures can turn around struggling teams. KEY TAKEAWAYS • Create your own luck, success comes from taking action to create opportunities. Dan built a 35-unit condo complex to turn his sons' college expenses into profit. • The 70-20-10 Rule is something Dan follows and advocates for, only 10% of career success comes from education, 20% from relationships, and 70% from experiences. Most people graduate thinking they're done, but they're only at the 10-yard line with 90 yards of life still to play. • Life is three stages, ages 20-30 are for building knowledge through relationships and experiences. 30-40 is when you create financial wealth. 40+ is the compounding phase where everything comes together. • Dan shares how you can transform teams by putting customers and associates first, with leaders serving to remove obstacles rather than commanding from above. • Surround yourself with people who give energy and help others succeed, not those who drain energy and create obstacles. Your advisors should be positive and supportive. • Dan believes that whilst Academic education provides a foundation, success comes from applying knowledge to real situations. Listen to experienced professionals and learn from every interaction. • Successful people want to share their knowledge with younger generations. Don't be intimidated to ask questions, one conversation can change your trajectory and costs nothing. • Be the CEO of your own life! Take ownership of your path while treating parents and mentors as your board of directors. You make decisions, but surround yourself with wise advisors. BEST MOMENTS "If someone says to me, 'Hey, you're the luckiest guy in the world,' I would take it perhaps as an insult, because if you're just lucky, that implies I did nothing to create that luck." "90% of my learning came from two things. It was relationships and experiences." "Don't look at anybody else. Don't care about what everybody else is doing. You are the CEO of life of your life." "The three worst letters in the dictionary, when they're combined, it's bad. And it's EGO."
