In episode two of August Wisdom, we discuss why change occurs through action and, therefore, why we must bias action over everything else, no matter what we are trying to improve in our lives.
Welcome to my special series for August. This is August Wisdom: 31 nuggets of wisdom in 31 days.
We begin by discussing how you are always changing and how to wield this insight for greater effectiveness in your life.
Have you ever heard the terms “natural ability” or “God-given talent”? Have you ever been told you're inherently incapable and should give up trying? Have you ever told this to yourself?
The talent obsession abounds in education, media and our mind. Not only is it hogwash, it seriously jeopardises our learning.
The idea that ability for a certain sport or pursuit is inbuilt and determines our chances of success is one of the biggest holes in the conventional wisdom on learning.
But it’s not only that. If you believe this is true, you will never be able to get good. It’s an extraordinarily disempowering belief.
Let's bust the talent myth and start creating the mentality we need to get great.
This is the final edition of the Sunday Sit!
In July, we have come together every Sunday at 8pm CET, 7pm UK, 2pm Eastern to practice a new meditation technique together.
I encourage you to practice today's technique every day until the 1st of August, and to continue this habit for the entire month to get a proper taste of this work.
This is the fourth episode in my Meditation Myths mini-series, where we cover the top myths that jeopardise long-term committed practice.
Today we discuss why meditation is not just about sitting quietly, and where consistent meditation will take you.

Today we tackle the sticky topic of the shadow: what it is, how it forms, and how we can identify our own shadow traits.
Shadow traits are not all negative and antisocial, and they form not because we are evil but because of how we develop as people.
To learn how to do shadow work, go back to last week's episode.
