  • 72. "Seeds of Speech: Tips on Cultivating the Power of Words for a Flourishing Life" w/Author Ganesh V
    Jan 9 2024

    "Say Hi, Send us a Text Message"

    Welcome to this first episode for 2024 & a New Year. Usually our email inboxes are flooded with tips on setting goals for the year & our social feeds filled with people selling their services to helps us attain those goals so host Paula has some questions for you:
    Q1 - How does the New Year makes you feel? Is it a fresh start, new beginnings, or a time of reflection?
    Q2 - How do all these messages make you feel – anxious or inspired?

    A New Year usually comes with a theme - success, accomplishment! What are you going to succeed at this year & what are you going to accomplish this year? This leaves us very much in a state of DOING!!! So some more questions to ponder on:
    Q1 - What does success look like to you?. What does it feel like, taste like, look like for you personally?
    Q2 - Do your words & language equate to your personal success?
    Q3 - Do you thing words & language, the way we communicate influence a person’s success in life?

    Co-host & Best Selling Author Ganesh is back and we delve into a topic that impacts our everyday lives either positively or negatively. We explore a topic often overlooked—the Power & Impact of Your Words. We cover the psychological aspects, cultural & social impact, practical tips on how to communicate effectively and lastly responsibility and accountability for the language and the words we use.

    Considering that the average human speaks between 7 000 - 20 000 words per day & those spoken words will either positively or negatively affect your life, your values, your mindset, your mental & physical well being & attitude then this conversation is an important one to consider when striving for success and to live a life of excellence and integrity. To live a life in purposeful peace as Bible Teacher Joel Osteen would say!

    Thanks for joining us for this though provoking conversation. Enjoy!
