[00:00.000 -> 00:05.200] As a person with a very deep voice, I'm hired all the time for advertising campaigns.
[00:05.200 -> 00:10.880] But a deep voice doesn't sell B2B, and advertising on the wrong platform doesn't sell B2B either.
[00:10.880 -> 00:14.720] That's why if you're a B2B marketer, you should use LinkedIn ads.
[00:14.720 -> 00:19.920] LinkedIn has the targeting capabilities to help you reach the world's largest professional audience.
[00:19.920 -> 00:24.080] That's right, over 70 million decision makers all in one place.
[00:24.080 -> 00:26.840] All the bigwigs and mediumwigs.
[00:26.840 -> 00:29.520] Also smallwigs who are on the path to becoming bigwigs.
[00:29.520 -> 00:31.760] Okay, that's enough about wigs.
[00:31.760 -> 00:36.200] LinkedIn ads allows you to focus on getting your B2B message to the right people.
[00:36.200 -> 00:41.360] So does that mean you should use ads on LinkedIn instead of hiring me, the man with the deepest
[00:41.360 -> 00:42.840] voice in the world?
[00:42.840 -> 00:44.960] Yes, yes it does.
[00:44.960 -> 00:47.000] Get started today and see why LinkedIn
[00:47.000 -> 00:49.440] is the place to be, to be.
[00:49.440 -> 00:52.720] We'll even give you a $100 credit on your next campaign.
[00:52.720 -> 00:55.880] Go to linkedin.com slash results to claim your credit.
[00:55.880 -> 00:58.180] That's linkedin.com slash results.
[00:58.180 -> 00:59.560] Terms and conditions apply.
[01:02.560 -> 01:04.720] On our podcast, we love to highlight businesses
[01:04.720 -> 01:06.540] that are doing things a better way so you
[01:06.540 -> 01:11.600] can live a better life and that's why when I found Mint Mobile I had to share.
[01:11.600 -> 01:16.280] So Mint Mobile ditched retail stores and all those overhead costs and instead sells their
[01:16.280 -> 01:19.680] phone plans online and passes those savings to you.
[01:19.680 -> 01:23.880] And for a limited time they're passing on even more savings with a new customer offer
[01:23.880 -> 01:29.880] that cuts all Mint Mobile plans to $15 a month when you purchase a 3 month plan.
[01:29.880 -> 01:36.280] That's unlimited talk, text and data for $15 a month.
[01:36.280 -> 01:41.120] And by the way, the quality of Mint Mobile's wireless service in comparison to providers
[01:41.120 -> 01:44.040] that we've worked with before is incredible.
[01:44.040 -> 01:46.320] Mint Mobile is here to rescue you
[01:46.320 -> 01:49.200] with premium wireless plans for 15 bucks a month.
[01:49.200 -> 01:51.960] So say goodbye to your overpriced wireless plans,
[01:51.960 -> 01:53.680] those jaw-dropping monthly bills,
[01:53.680 -> 01:55.600] those unexpected overages,
[01:55.600 -> 01:58.120] because all the plans come with unlimited talk and text
[01:58.120 -> 01:59.520] and high-speed data
[01:59.520 -> 02:02.680] delivered on the nation's largest 5G network.
[02:02.680 -> 02:05.720] Use your own phone with any Mint Mobile plan, bring your
[02:05.720 -> 02:08.820] phone number along with all your existing contacts.
[02:08.820 -> 02:13.440] So ditch overpriced wireless with Mint Mobile's limited time deal and get premium wireless
[02:13.440 -> 02:19.400] service for just $15 a month. To get this new customer offer and your new 3 month unlimited
[02:19.400 -> 02:25.480] wireless plan for just $15 a month, go to mintmobile.com.hpp. That's mintmobile.com slash HPP that's mint

[02:37.360 -> 02:41.920] for details. Hey everyone so 2022 is almost over
[02:41.920 -> 02:49.160] Damien did you get some great presents? Yes, I got the gift of just having a bit of time off. That was the nicest thing. What were you?
[02:49.680 -> 02:52.880] I got the gift of also having some time off
[02:53.640 -> 02:57.100] Which as you know, I struggle with yeah, well, there are pit stops aren't we?
[02:57.100 -> 03:03.260] That's what we often speak around there. The opportunity to stop and pause and reflect is really valuable
[03:03.260 -> 03:08.360] So I think when we can appreciate them we can make the most of them. It's almost like you'd plan that
[03:08.360 -> 03:11.480] because that's exactly what this episode of high performance is about this is a
[03:11.480 -> 03:15.840] pit stop this is a chance for us to stop and reflect now if you're a subscriber
[03:15.840 -> 03:20.680] to our premium service high performance plus then you will know that every month
[03:20.680 -> 03:24.680] you get key learnings from us where myself and Damien sit down and reflect
[03:24.680 -> 03:25.640] on the guests who joined us over the past few weeks but we actually thought every month you get key learnings from us where myself and Damien sit down
[03:23.600 -> 03:27.440] and reflect on the guests who joined
[03:25.640 -> 03:29.320] us over the past few weeks but we actually
[03:27.440 -> 03:32.000] thought it'd be really nice to round off
[03:29.320 -> 03:34.760] the year by allowing everyone to hear us
[03:32.000 -> 03:36.840] pick out just three key takeaways that
[03:34.760 -> 03:38.440] we've heard over the past 12 months.
[03:36.840 -> 03:40.280] Before we reveal them and hear from
[03:38.440 -> 03:42.160] three of the guests who've joined us I
[03:40.280 -> 03:45.040] mean let's just be frank this was a
[03:42.160 -> 03:45.520] really hard challenge. To sit here now and
[03:45.520 -> 03:51.420] think of the guests who've joined us in 2022, I feel so lucky to have had these conversations
[03:51.420 -> 03:52.900] on behalf of our listeners.
[03:52.900 -> 03:57.380] Definitely, I was talking to Finn around this very topic.
[03:57.380 -> 03:58.380] Who's Finn?
[03:58.380 -> 04:05.960] Finn is our producer and Finn was telling us this year alone. We've released over 80 high-performance episodes in 2022
[04:05.960 -> 04:13.220] So in the back catalogue of over a hundred and seventy are these brilliant interviews that we've been lucky enough to conduct this year
[04:13.220 -> 04:17.240] We've really churned out over 80 of them. So just reflecting on all of them
[04:17.240 -> 04:23.680] I mean, it's just a treasure chest of knowledge and wisdom and experience that we've had to draw on right?
[04:23.680 -> 04:25.680] Let's do it then. Lessons from the
[04:25.680 -> 04:31.160] year. Do you want to pick the first clip? Karl Yeah, I'm going to go for one of our
[04:31.160 -> 04:35.880] landmark episodes. It was episode 100 that we did at the start of the year, which was
[04:35.880 -> 04:42.800] with an enigmatic guest, somebody that we'd had on our list to get along for quite a while,
[04:42.800 -> 04:47.000] the brilliant adventurer Bear Grylls and I love this I
[04:47.000 -> 04:49.160] loved the start of the interview where
[04:49.160 -> 04:51.960] you brought your son Seb in and Bear
[04:51.960 -> 04:55.160] really made a special effort with him.
[04:55.160 -> 04:58.660] I'll tell you a quick story. Go on. So he was so
[04:58.660 -> 05:00.440] nice to Sebastian wasn't he and Seb as
[05:00.440 -> 05:01.920] you know doesn't talk a lot he's quite
[05:01.920 -> 05:04.160] shy but it that lived with him that
[05:04.160 -> 05:08.320] moment I can't believe it was almost a year ago that we had that conversation with Bear Grylls.
[05:08.320 -> 05:13.120] But if you remember, Bear said to him, listen Seb, kindness, courage, never give up spirit,
[05:13.120 -> 05:14.120] right?
[05:14.120 -> 05:18.240] And then the teacher, Seb's teacher, played that little snippet to the class.
[05:18.240 -> 05:22.320] A couple of weeks later I went to pick him up from school and hanging from the ceiling,
[05:22.320 -> 05:29.320] all the kids in the school had cut out letters and coloured them in of kindness, courage, never give up spirit
[05:29.320 -> 05:33.120] and they've written the letters into what they put the letters into words and
[05:33.120 -> 05:36.320] then hung them from the ceiling so when you go into his classroom the class
[05:36.320 -> 05:40.840] motto in Seb's class for the whole year was kindness, courage, never give up
[05:40.840 -> 05:47.400] spirit. Isn't that wonderful like the ripple effect of Bear Grylls just being kind in that moment to Seb when he came on the call
[05:47.400 -> 05:52.160] and the ripple effect that there's going to be half a dozen young boys or girls
[05:52.160 -> 05:56.080] in Seb's class are going to remember those messages and those values that
[05:56.080 -> 06:01.080] Bear encouraged and the next generation suddenly start to replicate them.
[06:01.080 -> 06:07.920] And isn't there something like really important about that you know I think sometimes when you have something called high performance and
[06:07.920 -> 06:12.120] you have gold medal winners and you have leaders and you have CEOs and you have
[06:12.120 -> 06:16.880] celebrities and well-known people it's a reminder that actually at the core of
[06:16.880 -> 06:20.360] all of this what they're doing you know we don't pay a single guest to come on
[06:20.360 -> 06:24.720] this podcast all of them are giving up their time their knowledge their
[06:24.720 -> 06:27.040] experience it's a reminder that if we can all go through life with that come on this podcast. All of them are giving up their time, their knowledge, their
[06:24.760 -> 06:28.880] experience. It's a reminder that if we
[06:27.040 -> 06:30.600] all go through life with that
[06:28.880 -> 06:32.640] philanthropic nature of wanting to give
[06:30.600 -> 06:33.880] back more than we take out, I think the
[06:32.640 -> 06:36.880] world is a better place. I think the
[06:33.880 -> 06:38.360] world now is too full of people who want
[06:36.880 -> 06:40.480] to take more than they are willing to
[06:38.360 -> 06:42.040] give and that's where society breaks
[06:40.480 -> 06:43.520] down. So when we spoke to Adam Grant, the
[06:42.040 -> 06:46.000] organizational psychologist around
[06:43.520 -> 06:45.000] this, who spoke about the world is full of yn ymdrech ar y cyfansoddau. Rwy'n gobeithio, wrth gwrs, y byddwn yn sôn am Adam Grant, y psychologaeth sefydlogol o ran hyn, sy'n sôn am
[06:45.000 -> 06:47.000] y byd sy'n llwyr o
[06:47.000 -> 06:49.000] ei gyd o ddiddordebwyr nid ymwneud â'r cyfansoddau
[06:49.000 -> 06:51.000] ac mae'r bobl hyn,
[06:51.000 -> 06:53.000] y nofiwm, os nad ydych chi wedi clywed y cyfansoddau,
[06:53.000 -> 07:07.640] efallai y byddai'n ymwneud â chi, efallai y byddai'n gwybod beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth yw'r beth y or a disagreeable taker is somebody that gives you feedback to make themselves feel
[07:04.800 -> 07:10.080] better and I think what all our guests
[07:07.640 -> 07:12.440] are very firmly in the camp of being
[07:10.080 -> 07:14.880] disagreeable givers, they're offering us
[07:12.440 -> 07:16.200] ideas that we might not agree with but
[07:14.880 -> 07:18.560] they're offering them with the help that
[07:16.200 -> 07:21.240] we might be able to take them, apply them
[07:18.560 -> 07:22.760] and make our own lives better. Toby Reed Well let's
[07:21.240 -> 07:25.960] hear then from one of those
[07:22.760 -> 07:27.520] disagreeable givers, Bear
[07:24.560 -> 07:29.880] Grylls, talking about the power of never
[07:27.520 -> 07:32.800] giving up and why actually that starts at
[07:29.880 -> 07:35.200] school. Things about school as you know
[07:32.800 -> 07:37.320] as a parent, school, the currency at
[07:35.200 -> 07:40.040] school tends to be celebrates the
[07:37.320 -> 07:41.640] sporty or the academic or maybe
[07:40.040 -> 07:44.560] even the good-looking, you know, those are
[07:41.640 -> 07:47.560] the things that carry weight at school and
[07:44.560 -> 07:49.080] you know but as we know, those things count for very little in life and the
[07:49.080 -> 07:52.580] currency of life is the opposite of that. The currency of life is resilience and
[07:52.580 -> 07:56.800] a positivity and a never-give-up spirit. And you know, I think one of
[07:56.800 -> 08:01.000] the dangers for young people is the superstars of school and how often do we
[08:01.000 -> 08:05.600] hear that the superstars at school don't always find life quite so easy.
[08:05.600 -> 08:11.280] But my theory on this, which I'm sure you kind of understand, is that if it's all too easy,
[08:11.280 -> 08:16.560] the one muscle you need in life, which is the inner muscle of the never give up, resilient muscle,
[08:16.560 -> 08:20.320] gets a bit weak, but we have the big outer muscles and all the trophies and the school
[08:20.320 -> 08:27.800] thinks you're amazing because you come first and get A's but actually little Johnny who's never picked for anything but never gives up and it's
[08:27.800 -> 08:31.880] just kind and tries his best and fails and gets up again and nobody really
[08:31.880 -> 08:35.640] even notices he's getting up again for the hundredth time. He leaves school
[08:35.640 -> 08:39.400] maybe not the the big biceps or the trophies but he leaves school with the
[08:39.400 -> 08:43.080] one thing that matters and it's a million dollar check, a currency of life,
[08:43.080 -> 08:48.920] the resilience inside, the strong inner muscle. So you know for a young boy like
[08:48.920 -> 08:52.200] Sebastian, like a son of which there are many many as you know in the in the world
[08:52.200 -> 08:56.720] who often you know and I see this with my own kids, often school overlooks a
[08:56.720 -> 09:01.440] little bit you know because you're not that loud or sporty or brilliant or
[09:01.440 -> 09:10.560] whatever you know in school terms. He's going to be great in life, you know, he's going to be great in life and take heart and, you know, good for
[09:10.560 -> 09:13.240] him. What a great kid.
[09:13.240 -> 09:17.000] Now for me, this is one of the most important clips from the whole year. You know, you've
[09:17.000 -> 09:22.040] already said 80 episodes, so that's 80 hours, maybe 90 hours of high performance that we've
[09:22.040 -> 09:27.800] produced so far this year. And I think that few seconds is vital because I think we all have to,
[09:28.100 -> 09:30.800] and I don't think I've got two young kids at school and all around me,
[09:30.800 -> 09:34.800] I see parents desperately pushing their children towards success all the time,
[09:35.400 -> 09:38.600] not realizing that the biggest learning for our children,
[09:38.600 -> 09:40.000] the biggest learning for us,
[09:40.200 -> 09:43.800] the biggest learning at any stage in our lives comes from the failure.
[09:43.800 -> 09:44.900] It comes from the struggle.
[09:48.960 -> 09:52.560] You know, we had Johnny Wilkinson on this podcast almost right at the very beginning, telling us that after 20 years of effort, winning the Rugby World Cup gave him the thrill
[09:52.560 -> 09:53.920] for 30 seconds.
[09:53.920 -> 09:54.920] Right?
[09:54.920 -> 09:57.440] So life is not about reaching the moment of victory.
[09:57.440 -> 09:58.960] What is life about?
[09:58.960 -> 10:01.080] Life is about pushing past the challenge.
[10:01.080 -> 10:03.440] There's no journey without progress.
[10:03.440 -> 10:04.440] Every journey needs progress.
[10:04.440 -> 10:05.680] The only way you get progress is by getting to a place that's difficult to reach. the challenge. There's no journey without progress. Every journey needs
[10:03.960 -> 10:07.320] progress. The only way you get progress is
[10:05.680 -> 10:09.120] by getting to a place that's
[10:07.320 -> 10:11.360] difficult to reach. The only way you get
[10:09.120 -> 10:13.240] to someone that's difficult to reach is by
[10:11.360 -> 10:15.840] failing and pushing past the difficult
[10:13.240 -> 10:18.680] things. I think we have to, in 2023,
[10:15.840 -> 10:21.000] get our heads around the fact that what
[10:18.680 -> 10:23.320] life is actually about is not arriving
[10:21.000 -> 10:24.600] somewhere, it's pushing through the
[10:23.320 -> 10:27.200] difficult stuff to get to that place.
[10:24.600 -> 10:28.920] Yeah, and a way that we can all do it as parents is just learning to
[10:28.920 -> 10:34.040] ask better questions. I think when I pick my kids up from school or certainly when
[10:34.040 -> 10:37.480] they were little I'd pick them up and say how was your day and they'd say it was
[10:37.480 -> 10:42.160] alright, I'd say what do you do and they'd say nothing and what I realized after a while was
[10:42.160 -> 10:46.000] that they're giving me feedback, my questions were rubbish so they don't want to answer them. So asking better questions and I think this is what Ond rydw i wedi sylwi, dwi'n gwybod, oherwydd rydyn nhw'n rhoi cymorth i mi, fy mhrofiadau oedd yn ddym,
[10:46.000 -> 10:48.000] felly dydynt ddim eisiau eu gysylltu.
[10:48.000 -> 10:50.000] Felly gofyn cwestiynau mwy o'r ffordd,
[10:50.000 -> 10:52.000] a dwi'n credu mai dyma'r hyn sy'n ein hyrwyddo
[10:52.000 -> 10:54.000] i ni, yn hytrach na dweud,
[10:54.000 -> 10:56.000] sut ydych chi'n dod ymlaen,
[10:56.000 -> 10:58.000] pan ddod i'r ysgol,
[10:58.000 -> 11:00.000] a oeddech chi'n gwybod y gêm hwn?
[11:00.000 -> 11:02.000] Gofyn cwestiynau fel, a oeddech chi'n mwynhau?
[11:02.000 -> 11:04.000] Oherwydd os oes, byddant yn dod i'w gael.
[11:04.000 -> 11:09.920] Beth ddysgu chi, sy'n dangos eich bod chi'n cymryd? Sut ydych chi'n helpu pobl eraill ynghylch y ffordd? learn that shows you're engaged. How did you help other people along the way? Shows that they've got a social intelligence that they're part of it. And then maybe make our 4, 4,
[11:09.920 -> 11:15.160] 5 question, how did you get on? What was the actual metrics that we're assessing them by?
[11:15.160 -> 11:19.480] And I think when we can ask better questions, that's where we start to encourage this growth
[11:19.480 -> 11:26.600] mindset, which in turn leads to greater resilience, perseverance and ultimately better long-term
[11:26.600 -> 11:32.640] performance. Brilliant advice, I love that and thank you so much Bear Grylls for coming on the
[11:32.640 -> 11:37.520] High Performance Podcast and sharing so much with us. Okay, can I pick an episode? Go on. The reason
[11:37.520 -> 11:43.800] why I've chosen this person is because I think that when we decided to invite her onto the podcast,
[11:43.800 -> 11:46.000] most people I mentioned it to went,
[11:46.000 -> 11:53.000] how is this person high performance or why would you have her on the podcast or what's she got to say about high performance?
[11:53.000 -> 11:57.000] And in so many ways that goes to the very heart of what high performance is all about.
[11:57.000 -> 12:05.000] For me this podcast exists to remind people that we live in a society absolutely dominated by opinion,
[12:05.000 -> 12:08.800] and it's opinion generated without knowledge.
[12:08.800 -> 12:11.300] Therefore, there's no empathy.
[12:11.300 -> 12:13.600] And what we need to do is have empathy for those around us.
[12:13.600 -> 12:15.900] The more we can understand the people around us,
[12:15.900 -> 12:18.300] the closer we can get to working with them,
[12:18.300 -> 12:19.700] the more we can work with them,
[12:19.700 -> 12:21.400] the greater we can achieve things together.
[12:21.400 -> 12:23.900] So we invited the former reality TV star,
[12:23.900 -> 12:29.120] now TV presenter and author, V Patterson onto the podcast. And I don't
[12:29.120 -> 12:32.600] know about you Damien, but I have more people mention this episode to me as
[12:32.600 -> 12:36.600] taking them by surprise than any other conversation we had in the last 12
[12:36.600 -> 12:40.440] months. Yeah, so there's that great quote from I think it's Albert Einstein that
[12:40.440 -> 12:44.360] said, I can't teach anybody anything, I can only make you think. And I think
[12:44.360 -> 12:46.000] that's what Vicky i mi,
[12:46.000 -> 12:48.000] i chi ac i llawer o'n myfyrwyr,
[12:48.000 -> 12:50.000] oherwydd fe wnaeth e ni stopio a meddwl,
[12:50.000 -> 12:52.000] a oedden ni'n ddod yn ddod yn ddifrifol,
[12:52.000 -> 12:54.000] a oedden ni'n dod yn ddod yn ddifrifol,
[12:54.000 -> 12:56.000] a oedden ni'n dod yn ddod yn ddifrifol,
[12:56.000 -> 12:58.000] yn enwedig yn ddifrifol? Ac rwy'n credu,
[12:58.000 -> 13:00.000] y pennaeth ymlaen ym mhob gwrs hon,
[13:00.000 -> 13:02.000] oedd, ddwylo'n ddifrifol heb ddifrifol,
[13:02.000 -> 13:05.000] dim ond yma, yn hytrach na yma, i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddod i ddodach na yma i ddweud fy mod i'n ymwybodol ar y ddewis honno.
[13:05.000 -> 13:09.000] A gofynnais i mi ei fod yn anhygoel, gofynnais i mi fod y ddewis hwnnw'n cael ei rannu,
[13:09.000 -> 13:12.000] yn rhannu'n ddewis, ond hefyd yn eithaf hynny'n hygyrch,
[13:12.000 -> 13:15.000] nid oedd yn dweud, fel y dweudodd hwnnw i mi ychydig o gyfer,
[13:15.000 -> 13:17.000] rydw i wedi gwneud y penderfyniad hwnnw,
[13:17.000 -> 13:19.000] y gyrfa rydw i wedi ei gael, neu rhywun eraill.
[13:19.000 -> 13:23.000] Felly roedd hi'n mynd i ddod o'r ddewis sy'n gael ei gael,
[13:23.000 -> 13:25.320] a gofynnais i mi ei mwynhau'n ddiweddar. passing on the hard-earned wisdom that she'd acquired. And I thoroughly, thoroughly enjoyed it.
[13:25.320 -> 13:27.600] Well, here is what Vicky said to us
[13:27.600 -> 13:30.340] about the modern challenges of social media.
[13:32.880 -> 13:35.880] There's a saying that I wasn't allowed to use in my book
[13:35.880 -> 13:38.600] because it's somebody else's and they're very precious
[13:38.600 -> 13:41.080] and I don't blame them because it is a good one.
[13:41.080 -> 13:43.520] But it is like, don't compare your behind the scenes
[13:43.520 -> 13:45.520] to someone else's highlight reel.
[13:50.720 -> 13:56.000] And I don't think it was created for social media, but it's, there's just never been a better way to describe it. It's so apt. We are constantly bombarded with unrealistic images of
[13:56.000 -> 14:02.480] perfection. And for a while, like I completely was suckered in and even worse than that,
[14:02.480 -> 14:10.880] I perpetuated that culture, which I've grown to hate. It's easily done but it's so toxic and I couldn't
[14:10.880 -> 14:15.000] even keep up with it. You know, like the pressure I was putting on myself to be
[14:15.000 -> 14:19.840] something I wasn't and I was like well in me 20s so I do worry about like young
[14:19.840 -> 14:25.960] lasses and young lads coming to these platforms and thinking everything they see is as is
[14:25.960 -> 14:32.300] because it's not. Everything's filtered and everything is this carefully curated
[14:32.300 -> 14:35.360] glimpse into somebody's life. They're showing you what they want you to fucking
[14:35.360 -> 14:39.600] see. They're not showing you their bad days, their breakouts, their periods, their
[14:39.600 -> 14:43.920] hangovers, the days when they just can't bring themselves to look in the mirror.
[14:43.920 -> 14:45.160] Like they're not showing
[14:45.160 -> 14:51.200] you any of that. They're showing you the highlights. So take it with a pinch of salt, and don't
[14:51.200 -> 14:53.960] be afraid to block people who threaten your peace.
[14:53.960 -> 14:57.760] Now, if you want to hear the full conversation with Vicky, and by the way, she shared some
[14:57.760 -> 15:02.360] amazing stuff that I even used today to run my diary and work more efficiently, listen
[15:02.360 -> 15:06.680] to the podcast and you'll find out what that is. But if you want to hear the full episode, it's episode 99 of the High Performance Podcast. i rynu fy nghaer i weithio'n fwy effeithiol, gwrando i'r podcast ac fe wnaethon nhw ddweud beth yw hynny. Ond os ydych chi eisiau clywed'r cyfnod cyflawn,
[15:06.680 -> 15:09.600] mae'n 99 o'r podcast o'r cyflwyniad cyffredin.
[15:09.600 -> 15:11.080] Wel, roedd yna ddangos cyd-ddefnyddiol yn y sefydliad hon,
[15:11.080 -> 15:13.720] pan ddweudwn i bobl
[15:13.720 -> 15:14.880] sy'n clywed hyn,
[15:14.880 -> 15:16.400] rydyn ni'n dysgu'r holl amser hefyd,
[15:16.400 -> 15:17.440] rydyn ni'n ymdrechu'r peth honno
[15:17.440 -> 15:19.840] a'i ddefnyddio yn ein bywydau ein hunain.
[15:19.840 -> 15:20.720] Rwy'n cofio, gyda fi a chi,
[15:20.720 -> 15:22.080] yn ystod y cyfarfodydd
[15:22.080 -> 15:22.960] ychydig wythnosau yn ôl,
[15:22.960 -> 15:27.120] pan roedden ni'n siarad am un rheolwr chwaraewr ffutbol y flwyddyn, roeddem yn siarad am rhan o fwydbolwyr
[15:27.120 -> 15:29.840] a gafodd gyda ni gyda'n gysylltiad.
[15:29.840 -> 15:33.520] A gafodd gennym ni ein hunain o ddod o'r ffordd
[15:33.520 -> 15:35.640] i ddod o'r ffordd i ddod o'r ffordd
[15:35.640 -> 15:36.640] i ddod o'r ffordd
[15:36.640 -> 15:37.640] i ddod o'r ffordd
[15:37.640 -> 15:38.640] i ddod o'r ffordd
[15:38.640 -> 15:39.640] i ddod o'r ffordd
[15:39.640 -> 15:40.640] i ddod o'r ffordd
[15:40.640 -> 15:41.640] i ddod o'r ffordd
[15:41.640 -> 15:42.640] i ddod o'r ffordd
[15:42.640 -> 15:43.640] i ddod o'r ffordd
[15:43.640 -> 15:44.640] i ddod o'r ffordd
[15:44.640 -> 15:46.000] i ddod o'r ffordd i ddod o'r ffordd i ddod o'r ffordd i ddod o'r ffordd i ddod o'ob ffordd. Yn ystod ein bod ni'n newid i'r ysgolion, ni'n cael ein meddwl yn fwy
[15:46.000 -> 15:48.000] o'r ffordd.
[15:48.000 -> 15:50.000] Gallwn ni ddechrau
[15:50.000 -> 15:52.000] gael ysgolion mwy
[15:52.000 -> 15:54.000] a chael ein cyfraniadau
[15:54.000 -> 15:56.000] yn fwy cyfathrebu a'n ddod yn ddiogel.
[15:56.000 -> 15:58.000] Dyna'r ystyried y mae Vicky
[15:58.000 -> 16:00.000] yn ei ofyn i ni ym mis hwn.
[16:00.000 -> 16:02.000] Byddwn i'n cofio i chi i gynllunio
[16:02.000 -> 16:04.000] i fod yn mwy cyfathrebu
[16:04.000 -> 16:09.300] ac i ddeall pobl eraill yn 2023. I d for a start it doesn't do you any good. We were
[16:09.300 -> 16:13.120] joined on the podcast by the amazing Mo Gowdat, that's a podcast worth listening
[16:13.120 -> 16:17.120] to from throughout 2022, where he said to us when something happens that annoys
[16:17.120 -> 16:21.100] you, someone else's behavior frustrates you, the actual annoyance lasts for 90
[16:21.100 -> 16:24.400] seconds, any longer than that and you're choosing to top up the annoyance
[16:24.400 -> 16:28.340] reserves and sometimes we're doing it for two, three, four days. You know, someone is
[16:28.340 -> 16:31.900] aggressive to you in traffic and it winds you up and you start driving badly and you
[16:31.900 -> 16:35.880] get home and you slam down your car keys and you slam the front door closed and you start
[16:35.880 -> 16:40.200] muttering under your breath. Who's been impacted by that person's behaviour? Them, driving
[16:40.200 -> 16:50.320] off blissfully, having bibbed you or flicked a digit or something, or you? Well, the answer is you. So you've got to realise that life is not about what happens to you,
[16:50.320 -> 16:54.640] it's how you react to it. And one of the really good lessons that I learned in 2022 about
[16:54.640 -> 16:59.760] how to do this was from Dr. Rangan Chatterjee. Please listen to his podcast, Feel Better,
[16:59.760 -> 17:04.440] Live More. It's a brilliant podcast, but he came on ours and he spoke about the fact that
[17:04.440 -> 17:09.380] when someone behaves in a way that isn't nice or makes you feel bad or you don't understand or is
[17:09.380 -> 17:14.560] just aggressive or critical or whatever, he said, have the mindset of if you'd have lived
[17:14.560 -> 17:18.760] their life, you would act in exactly the same way.
[17:18.760 -> 17:22.640] And I think that is a really powerful way to think about the world.
[17:22.640 -> 17:25.760] And this isn't to excuse people's behavior, but it's just to get us closer to a position of empathy. way to think about the world and this
[17:22.880 -> 17:27.520] isn't to excuse people's behavior but
[17:25.760 -> 17:29.040] it's just to get us closer to a
[17:27.520 -> 17:30.240] position of empathy. If I'd have lived
[17:29.040 -> 17:32.440] their life, if I'd have had their input,
[17:30.240 -> 17:34.440] their parenting, their challenges,
[17:32.440 -> 17:36.840] their bullying, their trauma, their
[17:34.440 -> 17:39.600] difficult times, then I too might
[17:36.840 -> 17:42.120] act like them. I love that. I just think
[17:39.600 -> 17:44.240] it's such a simple but incredibly
[17:42.120 -> 17:46.320] profound idea of because what it
[17:44.240 -> 17:45.080] forces you to do is to try and step of simple but incredibly profound idea
[17:42.920 -> 17:47.960] of because what it forces you to do is
[17:45.080 -> 17:50.320] to try and step into their world and see
[17:47.960 -> 17:52.960] the world through somebody else's eyes and
[17:50.320 -> 17:56.200] I think if that's a lesson that any of
[17:52.960 -> 17:58.600] us can take away and apply in 2023 this
[17:56.200 -> 18:00.400] podcast and the 80 episodes were put out
[17:58.600 -> 18:03.040] this year has been worth it if one
[18:00.400 -> 18:05.240] person does precisely that. Go on give us
[18:03.040 -> 18:09.480] the Bill Bullard quote to wrap up this little section. So Bill Bullard, for regular listeners will know that we love
[18:09.480 -> 18:13.180] citing him but he's an American politician that said opinion is the
[18:13.180 -> 18:17.360] lowest form of knowledge because it requires nothing other than you to offer
[18:17.360 -> 18:23.920] a judgment and to sweep in with a statement whereas empathy is the highest
[18:23.920 -> 18:25.160] form of knowledge because it requires you to suspend your ego, step into in with a statement, whereas empathy is
[18:23.480 -> 18:27.560] the highest form of knowledge because it
[18:25.160 -> 18:29.600] requires you to suspend your ego, step
[18:27.560 -> 18:31.640] into somebody else's world and see it
[18:29.600 -> 18:34.640] from their perspective. And we were
[18:31.640 -> 18:37.120] joined in November by a guest for whom if
[18:34.640 -> 18:38.880] you had opinion you'd imagine life is
[18:37.120 -> 18:42.520] pretty good, heavyweight champion of the
[18:38.880 -> 18:45.200] world, multi-millionaire, performs in
[18:42.520 -> 18:46.120] packed arenas, lauded by fans across the globe. However,
[18:46.120 -> 18:51.100] he joined us on this podcast and for those of you that have listened, I'm sure
[18:51.100 -> 18:55.160] that your opinion very quickly turned to empathy because you for the first time
[18:55.160 -> 19:01.720] perhaps really understood the challenges of living as Tyson Fury. And here's what
[19:01.720 -> 19:05.000] he told us about the experience of joining us on the High Performance
[19:05.000 -> 19:07.640] Podcast.
[19:07.640 -> 19:14.240] I think that this was one of the best podcasts I've done. I've not done that many, I only
[19:14.240 -> 19:21.320] do select podcasts. This has been probably the most in-depth and the pros. You've took
[19:21.320 -> 19:25.760] me to the darkest places that I probably never spoke about before.
[19:25.760 -> 19:28.080] Never spoke about me dead sister before.
[19:28.080 -> 19:31.160] I've never spoke about all the stuff going on with Paris
[19:31.160 -> 19:32.520] and my uncle Ewing in the hospital.
[19:32.520 -> 19:34.440] I may have touched on that, but not in depth.
[19:34.440 -> 19:36.600] I think we've gone, took me to hell and back
[19:36.600 -> 19:39.840] in this interview, brought back up all these memories.
[19:39.840 -> 19:41.640] And I can see you now smile at the end of it,
[19:41.640 -> 19:42.920] thinking like that's in the past
[19:42.920 -> 19:45.560] and I hope I never go back there again.
[19:45.560 -> 19:47.040] And I'm going to do everything in my power
[19:47.040 -> 19:49.160] to make sure that I don't go back there again.
[19:49.160 -> 19:50.760] So what can we do better as interviewers?
[19:50.760 -> 19:51.600] Give us feedback.
[19:51.600 -> 19:54.020] I think you guys were bang on, to be fair.
[19:54.020 -> 19:57.080] You didn't, you just let, you just prompted the questions,
[19:57.080 -> 20:00.000] let me speak and talk about it basically.
[20:00.000 -> 20:03.640] And I thought it was a fantastic interview.
[20:03.640 -> 20:04.480] Thank you for sharing.
[20:04.480 -> 20:07.880] So I've watched this, you guys before,
[20:07.880 -> 20:11.000] and you always say like, what three things.
[20:11.000 -> 20:11.840] We're gonna ask you that in a minute.
[20:11.840 -> 20:12.680] Oh, God.
[20:12.680 -> 20:13.500] Yeah.
[20:13.500 -> 20:14.340] That's not gonna get me out.
[20:14.340 -> 20:15.180] Come on then.
[20:15.180 -> 20:16.000] What are they then?
[20:16.000 -> 20:18.320] Your three non-negotiable behaviours
[20:18.320 -> 20:20.520] that you and the people around you have to buy into.
[20:20.520 -> 20:23.280] Well, my three non-negotiable behaviours,
[20:23.280 -> 20:25.000] or three things that makes me high performance is fish fingers, chips and beans. Wel, fy nhyddiadau ddim-drawethwyr, neu trwy ffyrdd sy'n gwneud i mi,
[20:25.000 -> 20:28.000] cyngor cyhoeddi, ffyrddau, gwyllt a gwyllt.
[20:28.000 -> 20:31.000] Hynny, ni ddim wedi cael e'r cynnig.
[20:31.000 -> 20:33.000] Wel, rydw i'n mynd i wneud ychydig o ddiddorol brag yma,
[20:33.000 -> 20:36.000] oherwydd Will, ein bos, ym mhoblwg cyhoeddus,
[20:36.000 -> 20:41.000] wedi nominatio i mi i gofyn y cwestiwn mwyaf gallanol o 2022,
[20:41.000 -> 20:46.660] pan dweudais i Tyson, yn un o'r stryd o'r ymchwil, nad oeddwn i'n credu ei hun, question of 2022 when he I told Tyson in one stage of the interview that I didn't
[20:46.660 -> 20:50.020] actually believe him in one of the answers that he gave. I tell you what actually
[20:50.020 -> 20:53.380] instead of you telling the story I'm gonna say let's play the clip now
[20:53.380 -> 20:58.780] because I want you to do I want you to listen to this when Damien goes I don't
[20:58.780 -> 21:03.000] believe you right listen to listen to this noise because Tyson's holding a
[21:03.000 -> 21:08.800] water bottle he's been drinking from and actually he isn't sending he just crunches the bottle in
[21:08.800 -> 21:13.000] his hand have a little listen to it but can I just jump in oh like I don't
[21:13.000 -> 21:18.080] believe yeah with all due respect when you tell me about there about I want to
[21:18.080 -> 21:21.760] do it for the fans in your world you've got a tight in the circle who you
[21:21.760 -> 21:28.100] listen to the fans are nice and it's nice to play the game of engaging with the fans and things like that but that
[21:28.100 -> 21:33.720] wasn't the real reason. I'm struggling to... That was 100% the reason. Rather you than me asking
[21:33.720 -> 21:37.560] that question but fair play and actually at the end there when we played the clip
[21:37.560 -> 21:40.480] where Tyson said look you've taken me to dark places you've challenged me I've
[21:40.480 -> 21:46.640] never done a podcast like this
[21:41.700 -> 21:48.200] before, I think if we don't have the, not
[21:46.640 -> 21:50.320] really the bravery, but I'm almost like the
[21:48.200 -> 21:51.640] permission to ask those kinds of
[21:50.320 -> 21:53.440] questions, then I think this podcast
[21:51.640 -> 21:55.360] struggles and people often say, how are
[21:53.440 -> 21:57.080] you able to ask those questions of your
[21:55.360 -> 21:58.840] guests? And I'll be honest with you, I
[21:57.080 -> 22:01.480] kind of struggle for what the answer is
[21:58.840 -> 22:02.880] to that really. Yeah, and I mean, while
[22:01.480 -> 22:05.080] I'm saying it tongue-in-cheek that we
[22:02.880 -> 22:06.000] did challenge him on that, I think the point I make is that in that room at Ie, ac wrth i mi ddweud hynny, yn ystod fy mod i'n dweud hynny, ryswn i'n mynd i'r ffordd i'w hymdrechu.
[22:06.000 -> 22:08.000] Rwy'n credu, y pwynt rydw i'n ei wneud yw,
[22:08.000 -> 22:10.000] yn y stryd honno ar y pryd,
[22:10.000 -> 22:12.000] rydyn ni'n sefydlu cyd-dreth.
[22:12.000 -> 22:14.000] Rydym ni'n ei llyrio,
[22:14.000 -> 22:16.000] rydyn ni'n creu amgylchedd,
[22:16.000 -> 22:18.000] rydyn ni'n gofyn nhw cwestiynau,
[22:18.000 -> 22:20.000] ac nid oeddem yn ceisio'r moment goch,
[22:20.000 -> 22:22.000] y penderfyniad o'i ddod o'i gilydd,
[22:22.000 -> 22:24.000] neu'n ceisio'i gynhyrchu.
[22:24.000 -> 22:25.600] Roedd yn rhoi amgylchedd i ni i mewn i'r rhoi le i ni i'w bywyd. Ac rwy'n credu, dweud i e,
[22:25.600 -> 22:27.520] na fydd hynny'n cyflawni â'r ffordd
[22:27.520 -> 22:29.120] rydych chi wedi'i ddweud yn ymlaen,
[22:29.120 -> 22:30.480] o'r gwir,
[22:30.480 -> 22:31.680] wedi'i gyrraedd yn ôl
[22:31.680 -> 22:33.280] a chael ei ystyried,
[22:33.280 -> 22:36.080] neu wedi'i ddatglo yn ychydig mwy o ddetail.
[22:36.080 -> 22:37.760] Ac rwy'n credu mai dyna'n pwysig iawn
[22:37.760 -> 22:39.840] yw bod Tyson yn agor
[22:39.840 -> 22:42.480] ar ddifrifiaeth ar gyfer ni.
[22:42.480 -> 22:43.200] Ac rwy'n credu,
[22:43.200 -> 22:44.320] i gyd,
[22:44.320 -> 22:46.000] yn agor ein hunain i'r syniad hwn
[22:46.000 -> 22:48.000] o ymgyrchu ein hunain gyda phobl
[22:48.000 -> 22:50.000] sy'n gwneud ymdrech i ni ddweud
[22:50.000 -> 22:52.000] yr hyn rydym am ei glywed,
[22:52.000 -> 22:54.000] ond yr hyn rydyn ni'n ei gael.
[22:54.000 -> 22:56.000] Mae'n ffeatur rwy'n siarad amdano
[22:56.000 -> 22:58.000] pan ddweud wrth fy nghymryd â chyfwyfyr.
[22:58.000 -> 23:00.000] Dwi'n dweud gallwch chi ymgyrchu eich hunain
[23:00.000 -> 23:02.000] gyda ddweud-dreth neu ddweud-amser.
[23:02.000 -> 23:04.000] Ac mae'r oerion o'r stori yn dod o...
[23:04.000 -> 23:48.000] Dwi'n gweithio gyda chyfwyfyr edd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd yn dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inni dweud, a oedd inn dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n dweud, mae'n when he feels it's the right time to retire for his own mental and physical welfare. But I think it's a lesson we can all apply to ourselves and our lives.
[23:48.000 -> 23:52.000] Having a circle of people that are prepared to challenge us is essential.
[23:52.000 -> 23:55.000] Yeah, we would love you to challenge people in the coming year,
[23:55.000 -> 23:59.000] but you can only do it if you come from a place of empathy and understanding
[23:59.000 -> 24:01.000] and a desire to know them better.
[24:01.000 -> 24:05.120] The only reason why we challenge Tyson Fury, we challenge Bear Grylls, Vicky
[24:05.120 -> 24:09.300] Patterson, every single other guest who's joined us over the past 12 months is purely
