Most people confuse fun with joy. They chase distractions, escapes, and momentary pleasures, believing it leads to happiness—but does it? In this thought-provoking episode of Being Brilliant, we confront the hard truth: your idea of fun may well be the enemy of your joy.

Discover the difference between fleeting fun and lasting joy. Together, we’ll explore:

• Why fun is often a distraction from deeper truths.

• How joy emerges in moments of peace, silence, and presence.

• The role of suffering and passion in creating a meaningful life.

• Why happiness is found in progress, not escapes.

We dive deep into how society teaches us to avoid pain and seek pleasure, but true joy comes from facing life head-on. From moments of silence in nature to the passion born out of struggle, this episode will challenge you to rethink what happiness really means.

Ask yourself: Is your fun helping you progress, or is it just an escape? Join us as we unpack how to move from distraction to joy and build a life rooted in passion, progress, and peace.

Being Brilliant - Get Up and Run—Because Life Won’t Wait

Change isn’t coming—it’s already happening. The question is: are you moving with it, or are you getting left behind?

Many people think they’re resisting change, but what they’re really resisting is growth. Life keeps moving, time keeps flowing, and those who stand still don’t stay in place—they fall behind.

In this episode of Being Brilliant, we challenge the myths around change and explore:

✅ Why standing still is an illusion—if you’re not growing, you’re shrinking.

✅ How fear of discomfort keeps you stuck in place.

✅ Why action is the only way forward—no matter how small the step.

✅ How to shift your mindset from resistance to momentum.

The truth is simple: Life won’t wait for you. Whether you’re the lion or the gazelle, when the sun rises—you’d better be running.

Are you moving, or are you waiting?

Being Brilliant - The Opposite of Belief is Because
play

Send us a text

What’s stopping you from taking that next big step toward your dreams? Often, it’s not the lack of ideas or talent—it’s the excuses we make, the “because” that creeps into our thoughts. In this episode of Being Brilliant, we dive into how excuses and justifications undermine belief, hold us back, and keep us from achieving brilliance.

Belief is the fuel for action. It’s the force that propels us forward, even when the path isn’t clear. But the word ‘because’? That’s the barrier, the justification we use to stay comfortable, avoid risk, and settle for less. Together, we’ll unpack this powerful idea and explore how to shift from limiting “because” thinking to empowering belief.

Join Dr. Chetan Walia as we discuss:

•Why excuses weaken our conviction and derail progress.

•How belief builds the foundation for success, action, and results.

•Simple strategies to silence the “because” and lean into your brilliance.

If you’ve ever found yourself saying, “I can’t because...” this episode will challenge you to rethink, reframe, and reignite your potential. Because once you eliminate excuses, all that’s left is belief—and belief makes anything possible.

Subscribe now and tune in for this thought-provoking and motivational discussion. Take the first step toward unlocking your brilliance today.

What happens when you don’t have a vision? You drift. You lose direction. You perish—not always physically, but mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

In this powerful episode of Being Brilliant, we explore the life-altering force of vision. It’s not just about seeing the future; it’s about creating it. From leaders like Walt Disney, Gandhi, and Martin Luther King Jr., we learn that extraordinary change begins with one thing: the courage to see what others can’t.

Discover how to:

Define a vision that gives your life direction and purpose.

Break free from aimlessness, self-doubt, and limiting beliefs.

Shift your focus from obstacles to possibilities.

Rewrite your story and start painting a new canvas for your life.

“You are the painter, and life is your canvas.” Whether you’re feeling stuck, uninspired, or uncertain about the future, this episode will challenge you to ask: What’s my vision? And am I brave enough to live it?
