Structure can be liberating? Quite a lot, actually! Listen to Íosacs and Gretas braindump episode about personal development from building a foundation of values until managing a daily to do list. Enjoy!

3 - Redefining Failure

3 - Redefining Failure

In this episode, we discuss the ever fraught fear of failure. Big or small the thought of it explicitly or inexplicitly surfaces regularly, and yet do we ever reexamine our relationship and perception of it? Albeit complex we seek to discuss what it might look like to redefine that relationship and it's importance to our growth.

New belief: There is no such thing as failure. Only failure to learn.


While you listen here are some questions you might like to consider when overcoming failure:

- What would I try if I knew I could not fail?

- What is the worst that could happen?

- If I did fail, what could be the likely causes?

- ...And how would I recover from that failure

- What if I succeed - what would that look like?

- How can I take one small step into...xyz!

- What if I could not fail?

- What would you do if you weren't afraid?

2 - Ugly babies

2 - Ugly babies

This weeks episode starts off with ugly babies. We started this podcast, knowing that it’s not gonna be perfect, it will has it’s annoying little features, but we still love it, like it would be our own baby. Maybe not the most beautiful one, but definitely loved.

Just to show how imperfect we are, Greta just woke up from her nap, and with Íosac she dived into the topic of motivation, flow and being famous. A real braindump episode. Enjoy!

Here's an article about Steven Kotlers idea of flow and it's triggers: https://www.stevenkotler.com/rabbit-hole/frequently-asked-questions-on-flow

Let us know what you think about it!
