You Are Stronger Than You Know with Matthew Ames

Dave Jorna — Mon, 22 Apr 2019 16:00:00 +1000

You have more inner strength than you could ever imagine.

For today's Feel Good Friday, I thought we would do something special by revisiting the incredibly powerful words and story of our very first guest, Matthew Ames. You may remember that after he fell ill with Strep A, he was given a 1% chance of survival only if they amputated his limbs. The resilience, hope and love shown by Matthew and his wife, Dianne during the recovery and in forming their new life continues to inspire me today.

I thought there was no one better than Matthew to give you a little boost today and remind you that yes, you are far stronger than you know.

Reignite Your Intuition with Steve Willis

Dave Jorna — Mon, 22 Apr 2019 16:00:00 +1000

Experiencing true happiness doesn't mean that you need to have an absence of sadness. Instead, you can be both happy and sad at the same time but only if you let yourself be open to the different experiences.

For this Feel Good Friday, we revisit some wisdom and inspiration from Steve Willis (aka Commando Steve) as he shares about the importance of tapping into your intuition and allowing yourself to experience the range of emotions in their fullness.

Doing Life Gratefully Challenge

Dave Jorna — Mon, 22 Apr 2019 16:00:00 +1000

What if we spent as much time looking for the positives as we do focusing on the negatives, the stresses, the things that make us worried and anxious.

There is an abundance of positives around you, that is, when you stop and intentionally notice it. Even when things are going wrong, when you are having a struggle day, or when everything seems to be going against you, if you look for it, you will still find positives all around you.

Where you focus is where you end up. If you focus on the negatives, that’s where you and your energy will end up. However, if you focus on the positives, your energy and internal dialogue will follow.

Let’s start something. When you take one photo per day of something you are grateful for, you start noticing more positive things and moments each and everyday. In fact, it has been proven to even reduce depression.

This thing or moment you are grateful for doesn’t have to be anything big. It can be just an everyday thing, like clean sheets, or a fresh coffee, or time with your friends, a good book, the sunrise, anything that brings you a little joy.

So, I’m going to start posting one image per day of something I am grateful for as part of my instagram stories, and I'd love for you to join me. Make sure you use #doinglifegratefully and tag me in @davejorna and @dolifebetterpodcast.

Also, if you want to challenge or invite someone to join in, tag them in your post.

Your 5 Determines Your Happiness And Success

Dave Jorna — Mon, 22 Apr 2019 16:00:00 +1000

It’s time to revisit your 5.

You are literally the average of the 5 people you associate with the most.

Your values, beliefs, mindset, relationships, health and wellbeing, levels of happiness, ambitions, income, whether you smoke or not, and much more are all directly related to the 5 people you associate with the most.

When you surround yourself with the rigth people, you spend less time questioning and doubting yourself, less time worrying about the negativity of others, and more time being and building your greatest self. You then have more to give those you love, to your family, your friends and colleagues.

During this Feel Good Friday, I share with you the importance of surrounding yourself with the best 5 people for you.

Dave Jorna — Mon, 22 Apr 2019 16:00:00 +1000

It's time to turn that inner critic into your own personal coach.

Focusing on that harsh, unhelpful self-talk probably hasn't gotten you anywhere, so let's turn it into constructive thinking.

You show up with empathy, compassion, and positivity for your friends and loved ones, so start doing the same for yourself.

In this Feel Good Friday, I'll give you the inspiration and tips you need to be your own coach.
