FMQ 519 Talking’s Over It’s Time To Change

November 7, 2025

In this slightly-longer FMQ, we’re taking a gentle but powerful step toward real change. No more talking about the issue. No more cycling through the same thoughts. This episode is all about shifting your focus to what actually creates transformation — how you want to feel.

So many of us get stuck talking, thinking, analysing… and nothing changes. Why?
Because talking doesn’t always touch the unconscious mind — the place where these patterns were created in the first place.

In this FMQ, I share:

Feel It First: The Secret to Reaching Your Goals

October 31, 2025

We’ve all been there. Fired up by a dream, full of determination, and then somewhere along the way… we stall.
Maybe the excitement fades. Maybe doubt creeps in. Or maybe we just lose sight of why we started in the first place.

#467 How To Achieve Your Goals Easily

October 31, 2025

There’s an easier way to achieve your dreams and goals — one that actually feels good and keeps you motivated the whole way through.

In this episode, I share a simple but powerful approach to goal setting that most people miss: starting from the last step — that moment when you’ve already achieved your goal — and using that feeling to drive you forward. You’ll discover how to find your true why, anchor your motivation, and create a plan that’s realistic, energising, and deeply aligned with what you want.

Hey, it’s Paul here, and this episode is a little different.

I want to ask for your help — because I really want to make a difference.

For years I’ve been putting out two episodes a week — a Five-Minute Quickie and a longer one — and to be honest, it’s been tough to keep up. More than that, I’ve realised I want to go deeper. I want to spend more time on the stuff that really matters — the stuff that helps people change for good.

How to Really Be Successful: Aligning Mind and Body

October 14, 2025

We’ve all heard it: “Get the right mindset and success will follow.”
But what if that’s only half the story?

In truth, success isn’t just a matter of the mind — it’s about alignment. The connection between your thoughts, emotions, and the way you physically carry yourself.

Think about it.

No Regrets – Just Do It – Here’s How

No Regrets – Just Do It – Here’s How

How many times have you looked back and thought, “If only I’d done that…”?

Regret is one of the heaviest emotions we carry, and it doesn’t come from failing — it comes from not trying. That’s what I explore in this episode: how to live boldly, take the shot, and free yourself from hesitation.
