The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett

In this moment, YouTube and productivity expert, Ali Abdaal discusses the power of consistency and how to overcome procrastination. Ali discusses the power of compounding interest, and how small actions over time can snowball into trigger larger rapid changes such as viral success from making a YouTube video every week for 2 years. However, to get to this position, Ali says you have to first learn to love the process, moving away from an outcome based mindset that means success is out of your control, and instead to a view of success that comes from within. To get there first means overcoming hurdles such as procrastination. In order to do this, Ali says you should move away from focusing on a large end goal and instead focus on a series of smaller goals along the was. So rather than worrying about moving a whole mountain, people should focus on moving one pebble at a time.Listen to the full episode here - https://g2ul0.app.link/kHoT6TnDwFbWatch the Episodes On Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/c/%20TheDiaryOfACEO/videosAli: https://aliabdaal.com/https://www.youtube.com/@aliabdaalLearn more about your ad choices.

In this moment, ex-chief business officer for Google X, Mo Gawdat asks the question, ‘what are the illusions that you are living under’? Mo believes, that for all of us, our view of reality is an illusion, and this can often become limiting or imprisoning. Too often this viewpoint of reality can lead to an identity you form that you feel that you have to stick with and cannot break away from. Furthermore, Mo says that for a lot of people, inner conflict comes when your actions don’t match with the inner feelings you have, so you don’t feel as if you’re fully complete. To overcome this, Mo says that we need to find balance within ourselves and that this balance can be broken down to smaller, more manageable sections that you can improve on every single day, as ultimately, this search for inner balance is a constant journey.Listen to the full episode here:  https://g2ul0.app.link/n9c6KH2qlFbWatch the Episodes On YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/%20TheDiaryOfACEO/videosMo Gowdat: https://www.instagram.com/mo_gawdat/?hl=enhttps://www.mogawdat.com/Learn more about your ad choices.

In this moment, the American businessperson and marketing executive, Bozoma Saint John discusses how to find your destiny. Bozoma says that too often people say that they just ‘fell into’ the job or industry they are in, when in fact she believes that this is destiny coming to find you and that we are constantly creating our destiny. She says that we underestimate the power of letting go of control (which is not the same as surrendering or giving up) as a way of opening up to different possibilities and routes to finding our destiny. As too often we bang our heads against closed doors, when instead there is an open door that is open on a different route. To realise this, she says we need to treat our powers of intuition like a muscle, ignoring external voices and opinions, training and growing your intuition to the point where you can have 100% faith in whatever it is telling you.Listen to the full episode here -  https://g2ul0.app.link/q9EARBxJ9EbWatch the Episodes On Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/c/%20TheDiaryOfACEO/videosBozoma:https://www.bozomasaintjohn.comhttps://www.instagram.com/badassboz/?hl=enLearn more about your ad choices.

In this moment, investor and financial educator, Codie Sanchez discusses the first steps in understanding the game of finance and deals. Codie says herself that she is no financial genius, however with her background as a journalist, she is able to right the ask right questions to the right people in order to get the right answers. Through this she was able to infiltrate the world of finance and saw behind the curtain. Codie realised there is no difference between a $100 million deal and a $100,000 deal, all were just slight larger steps up the ladder. To see behind the curtain, Codie believes there are 2 key skills people need to realise: firstly, learn how to do deals, which is not complex but only made to seem complicated through financial language. Secondly, understanding the importance of connecting with the right people, online or IRL who can give you all the information you need about the business you are entering. Finally, Codie believes that we never actually sell anyone anything or convince them to do anything, but instead you connect with what people are already truly feeling.Listen to the full episode here - https://g2ul0.app.link/gOvSMoV4XEbWatch the Episodes On Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/c/%20TheDiaryOfACEO/videosCodie:https://www.codiesanchez.comhttps://www.instagram.com/codiesanchez/https://www.youtube.com/@CodieSanchezCTLearn more about your ad choices.
