    Life Could Be Different ... And Maybe Better?

    Life Could Be Different ... And Maybe Better?
    Are people ever satisfied? Two social psychologists, Ethan Ludwin-Peery and Adam Mastroianni, fell down a research rabbit hole accidentally answering a version of this very question. After conducting several studies, the pair found that when asked how things could be different, people tend to give one kind of answer, regardless of how the question is asked or how good life felt when they were asked. Short Wave's Scientist in Residence Regina G. Barber digs into the research—and how it might reveal a fundamental law of psychology about human satisfaction. (encore)

    The Ultimate State Of Being

    The Ultimate State Of Being
    This week, I want to talk to you about one of the most important building blocks you need to live a great life. YOUR BLISS. Some people think bliss is the same as HAPPINESS, JOY, ELATION, and others. But those are emotions, and bliss is not. BLISS is a TRANSCENDENT STATE OF BEING fed by emotions. Pay close attention as I tell you what the differences are. You must be more MINDFUL than ever and PROTECT AND PRESERVE YOUR BLISS in every way you can. Here’s how… …Discover the PURPOSE AND MEANING of your life. Bliss helps you understand the overarching WHY of your time on Earth. Bliss is a long-term way of thinking that rises above all temporary emotions. …Weigh your RELATIONSHIPS carefully. Do not allow those who rob you of your bliss to have a place in your life. Reduce or eliminate completely those that no longer serve you well. …Think about who and what things ROB you of your bliss. Write them down. Now do the same for people and activities that ADD to your bliss. Write them down. The physical act of writing helps cement them into your consciousness. Now consciously work to eliminate things that rob you of your bliss and take actions to make more time in your life for things that add to your bliss. Put in the work toward finding your BLISS. And when you find it, protect your BLISS. It is a GIFT OF KINDNESS to the person who matters most in the world. The most BLISSFUL version of YOU.   Learn more about your ad choices.

    4 Steps to Build Emotional Maturity & Make Relationships Last (Tom Bilyeu Interviews Jay)

    4 Steps to Build Emotional Maturity & Make Relationships Last (Tom Bilyeu Interviews Jay)

    Do you like spending time alone or by yourself?

    How does alone time help clear your mind and fuel positive thoughts?

    Today, I am excited to share a conversation I had with Tom Bilyeu in his podcast, Impact Theory, where he interviews me about my profound journey through solitude, relationships, and self-love.

    We kick things off by shedding light on the wisdom found in ancient texts like the Vedas, which many monks study in solitude. It's a reminder that spending time alone is not a sign of weakness; in fact, it can be a powerful tool for personal growth. I share the incredible benefits of allocating just one hour a week to being alone with your thoughts, a practice that can transform your life.

    As we venture further into this enlightening conversation, we discuss the importance of dealing with life's challenges, share insights on daily meditation, and the complexities of loneliness and why it's essential to feel seen, heard, and understood in our relationships. With heartfelt anecdotes and wisdom, we explore the concept of love, self-worth, and the hard work required for genuine, lasting relationships.

    In this interview, you’ll learn:

    • How to be comfortable with being alone
    • How to sit with your inner thoughts 
    • How to prepare for love
    • The tips to finding true love
    • How to make relationships last
    • The impotence valuing self-worth
    • How to build lasting trust on others
    • How to maintain a successful marriage

    Remember, relationships are just one part of our life's journey, and it's up to us to make it a meaningful and fulfilling one. Let’s navigate the complexities of life and relationships with wisdom and love.

    With Love and Gratitude,

    Jay Shetty

    We all want peace in our life. We all want healthy relationships. We all want positivity to surround us. Therefore we tend to stay away from toxic and negative people. But sometimes, this need to keep toxic and negative people out of our circle is also making us THE toxic and negative person to others. And we may not realize it because we are doing it unconsciously and unintentionally.

    In this episode of On Purpose, Jay Shetty covers the different types of unhealthy behaviors that make relationships draining and how we can carry ourselves with positive energy and optimistic views.

    ASK323: How do you deal with anti-landlord views? PLUS: Will increasing interest rates squeeze my margins?

    ASK323: How do you deal with anti-landlord views? PLUS: Will increasing interest rates squeeze my margins?

    It’s time for another round of listener questions! 

    Our first question is from Steven in Manchester. 

    Steve has been investing for a few years now, he’s researched various strategies and spoken to a lot of people. 

    And he’s had a sad realisation...  

    There’s a lot of negativity when it comes to being a landlord and investing. Steve approaches being a landlord in an ethical way and tries to look out for his tenants, making his property feel like their home.  

    What Steve would like to know is how do Rob & Rob handle this negativity? Do they have a particular approach or argument when it comes to dealing with this? 

    Next up, we’ve got a question about interest rates. 

    This listener is looking to build a Buy-to-Let portfolio and is looking for some advice on interest rates and rental income. 

    What he wants to know is if rent will increase to match interest rates, and if they do will this impact the profit margins of Buy-to-Let properties? 

    Tune in to find out what the guys have got to say. 

    Do you have a Buy-to-Let or property investment related question for Rob & Rob? You could feature on the next episode by giving us a call on 013 808 00035 and leaving a message with your name and question (normal UK call rates apply).  

    Or if you prefer, click here to leave a recording via your computer instead

    The next question on Ask Rob & Rob could be yours.

    Listen to This to Completely Silence Your Negative Thoughts

    Listen to This to Completely Silence Your Negative Thoughts

    Today's episode is an amazing throwback #TeaWithGaryVee moment I know you're going to love listening to again. I don’t know if there is a more powerful clip that I’ve ever put out and I hope you can sit down and really let this soak in. Please understand that your negative outlook on life is coming from a place of fear that was instilled in you. For everybody that is "scared" and "fear-based", don't see it as a negative reflection of yourself. You're not bad, you are just hurt and need to understand that those are other people's thoughts being put in your head.

    Enjoy! Let me know what you thought.

    Listen To This Before You Turn 30 | Calling a Fan From Facebook

    Obviously this was a loaded question/situation, but I really want to put emphasis on the fact that being 28 years old means that you still have 60 more years of execution. So many people think that 28 is a good time to start playing it safe by buying a house, getting married, and settling down, when in actuality, you have so much time! Don't look at other people to get bearings on where you are in your life. Everyone has their own clock.
