12/22/23 • 10 min
In this episode, let’s talk about stacking the deck in your favour. As we are finishing off another year, it is straightforward to jump ahead, plan out the next year, and set big goals. How can you finish the year, stacking your wins, lessons, and experiences and set yourself up for success in the upcoming year? It starts with changing our beliefs, building beliefs, and stacking them in our favour.
In today’s episode, we discuss: 1) A belief is just a thought you keep having, so focus on your thoughts, build your beliefs, and how can you get up more times than what you fall? That will build your beliefs, which over time and with repetition it will change your identity and that will change your results.
2) You are a living testament to the people who went before you and the people who will come after you. Your action inspires action in others, your power inspires power and your strength inspires strength in others. You can create a massive change in your year next year and it starts by consciously stacking the deck in your favour.

644 | The Past Does Not Equal the Future with Stephan Neff
Today we are speaking with Stephan Neff, an anaesthetist who has had more than a fair share of trauma in his life. He has tried to drown PTSD, depression, and anxiety in industrial doses of alcohol, without success. Nowadays he lives a different life, where self-love, humility, integrity, and transparency mean something. His aim is to demystify addiction and mental health problems.
He hosts the show Neff Inspiration and has just released the third edition of his book “My
Steps to Sobriety”. He constantly seeks to become a better human and in turn, has become a
breath and flexibility coach, and expands his training into functional medicine.
In this episode, we dive into:
1) Stephan shared his vulnerable story, dealing with trauma at an early age, how he coped and found alcohol, the role it served for him, and how over time it became all-consuming in his life.
2) Once he experienced the power of breathwork he became a breath coach. Not willing to
accept getting stiffer with age he became a flexibility coach. He strongly believes that the
past does not equal the future. By taking action in a consistent way, we can experience
transformations beyond our wildest dreams. Connect with Stephan: Neff Inspiration YouTube show - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ5Rgw59jOX4y3iDeMAXpwQ

646 | How Can You Grow Your Willpower A Little More?
In this episode, we kick off the New Year talking about willpower. Willpower is something that you think you have, don’t, or assume others have it and it’s not available for you. As we kick off a New Year, the average amount of time people stick with your new goals are
In today’s episode, we discuss: 1) How you can strengthen your willpower by understanding the power of your subconscious mind. Willpower is built with 5% of your conscious mind and missing the powerhouse of your subconscious mind. It is said that our subconscious mind is a million times more powerful than the conscious mind. The subconscious mind consists of long-term memory. emotions and feelings. habit and behaviour patterns.
2) Here are 13 points to understanding the power of your subconscious mind when it comes to helping you to achieve your goals and build more willpower to help you to see what is possible. The article was written by Brianna Weist, the author of The Mountain is You, one of my fav books. I changed some of the points to speak from the NLP perspective and I shared personal examples for each, https://bit.ly/3RQ27HM
1. Be willing to see the unchangeable change
2. Give yourself permission to be successful
3. Don't allow other people's fears to cast shadows of doubt.
4. Surround yourself with positive reinforcement
5. Speak about your success as a present fact, not a future plan.
6. Create a vision space and practice
7. Identify your resistance. Call out your limiting beliefs, decisions, and emotions that are building more doubt
8. Have a master plan for your life, what are your intentions for how you choose to live, what values are the most important for you?
9. Start a gratitude journal. Gratitude only amplifies more of who you are and what you are calling in.
10. Start asking for what you want, not what you don’t want. Whatever you speak life into is what you will live.
11. Release your attachment to the "how."
12. Surround yourself with people who help you rise to your potential.
13. Become consciously aware of what you are unconsciously consuming
