#285: 6 Ways I Completely Rewired My Mindset Over The Years!
Since I released my second book Rewire Your Mindset at Christmas, I've been reflecting and thinking about some of the main ways I rewired my mindset over the past few years. Today's podcast is a 'press record and talk' solo episode so I hope you enjoy it. Separating real problems vs perceived problems. 08:59 Understanding the difference between positive feedback from negative criticism and knowing who to listen to and who to ignore. 27:31 Accepting short term anxiety is a normal human emotion to feel.. but chronic anxiety is not! 44:32 Learn to let go of things I can't control. 50:54 Understand the power of people's projection and their negativity is a reflection of them (not me). 01:00:04 Finally knowing that the figurative goal posts (of any target or goal) always move so you need to be aware of that or change the frigging game! 01:09:57 Shownotes: Lets Get Checked 30% OFF code: KEANE30 LetsGetChecked – Home health and wellness tests in Ireland ------------------------------------- Check out my latest book 'Rewire` Your Mindset' on audiobook – available now on Audible – click here.

Dealing with Anxiety, Parenting and Handling Negative People!
This was a podcast I recorded last week with my mate Kevin from Kevin Boyle Yoga. This was one of my favourite interviews I've done recently. I've covered topics on todays podcast that I haven't previously touched on in any podcast. In it, we talked anxiety, parenting and how to not get confused between love and hate with dealing with negativity from people. If you're a fan of the fitness episodes, I'd give this one a miss; but if you enjoy the mindset podcasts, then this is not to be missed!
