In this episode of the High Performance Podcast, hosts Jake Humphrey and Professor Damian Hughes delve into the concept of non-negotiables, a question they ask at the end of every conversation on the podcast. They reflect on the various non-negotiables shared by a wide range of guests, including Eddie Howe, Owen O'Kane, and Courtney Black.

Jake and Damian discuss their own non-negotiables and how they have evolved since the beginning of the podcast. They emphasize the importance of being all in, dedicated, and committed to achieving high performance. They also highlight the significance of consistency and applying success principles with consistency to achieve high-performance results.

The hosts discuss the idea of infinite purpose, where non-negotiables are not about achieving specific outcomes but rather about embodying certain values and behaviors that contribute to overall well-being and happiness. They encourage listeners to turn non-negotiables into everyday conversations in the workplace, as they provide a unique window into an individual's belief system, confidence, and happiness.

Jake and Damian also explore the concept of "real optimism," which involves acknowledging challenges while maintaining a belief in one's ability to cope with them. They emphasize the importance of consistency and avoiding the trap of being great one day and not the next.

The episode concludes with Jake and Damian sharing their own non-negotiables. Jake stresses the importance of making a positive difference in every interaction and creating an environment where people can enjoy themselves. Damian emphasizes the value of empathy, showing genuine interest in others, and creating a culture where people feel comfortable asking questions and seeking growth.

The hosts encourage listeners to share their three non-negotiables on social media platforms such as Instagram, LinkedIn, and Twitter. They emphasize the importance of identifying behaviors that contribute to success and applying them consistently to achieve high-performance results.

[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

[02:38.080 -> 02:42.280] Hi there, welcome along to a special episode of the High Performance Podcast where myself
[02:42.280 -> 02:48.280] and Professor Damien Hughes, hello, hello, are going to delve into some of the quickfire questions that we ask
[02:48.280 -> 02:52.800] at the end of each episode. Damien the interesting thing is you know we ask a
[02:52.800 -> 02:58.840] lot of questions right and what are your three non-negotiables seemed to kind of
[02:58.840 -> 03:01.840] capture people's attention from the very early weeks of the High Performance
[03:01.840 -> 03:08.080] Podcast what do you think that is? I think it's because people don't like o'r wythnosau cymdeithasol o'r podcast High Performance. Beth ydych chi'n meddwl o hynny? Rwy'n credu ei fod oherwydd bobl ddim yn hoffi amgylchedd.
[03:08.080 -> 03:10.320] Mae'r amgylchedd a'r amgylchedd
[03:10.320 -> 03:11.560] yn creu ymgyrchu
[03:11.560 -> 03:14.720] ac yna mae'r ymgyrchu yn ymwneud ag ymdrechion.
[03:14.720 -> 03:15.440] Felly rwy'n credu
[03:15.440 -> 03:18.000] pan rydych chi'n dweud i bobl o'r cyfartal
[03:18.000 -> 03:19.040] a'r cyfartal,
[03:19.040 -> 03:21.720] dyma beth dwi ddim yn barod i'w ymgyrchu ar.
[03:21.720 -> 03:23.080] Mae pobl yn cael penderfyniad.
[03:23.080 -> 03:24.160] Gallant efallai ymgysylltu gyda chi
[03:24.160 -> 03:25.460] neu gallant ddewis ddim, ond dydyn ni ddim, dydyn ni ddim yn cael ymchwiliad i seilio ar y ffens. I'm not prepared to compromise on people that have a choice they can either engage with you or they can choose not to but
[03:25.680 -> 03:29.680] There's no like there's no room to sit on the fence with it. And I think people
[03:30.360 -> 03:32.480] crave that in our in a world of
[03:33.000 -> 03:38.160] ambiguous language I tell you what then let's have a listen and a look at some of the
[03:39.360 -> 03:43.120] Non-negotiables that have been shared with us over the past few years of the high performance podcast
[03:44.320 -> 03:49.000] honesty love and doing good.
[03:49.000 -> 03:53.380] Calm and energy. I want people to be able to calm each other down and be able to be
[03:53.380 -> 03:55.140] empathetic to each other.
[03:55.140 -> 04:00.660] We are here, we're here for a short time. And it really is about making daily decisions
[04:00.660 -> 04:05.000] about how you get the best from your day and your life. And when you compromise and that ym mhob dydd, y peth y byddwch chi'n ei wneud yw gwneud penderfyniadau ar gyfer sut i chi gael y mwyaf o'ch dydd a'ch bywyd.
[04:05.000 -> 04:10.000] Ac wrth i chi'n ymgyrchu ar hynny, rydych chi'n ymgyrchu ar eich lles a'ch llwyddiant, felly byddwn i'n ddod o hynny.
[04:10.000 -> 04:25.000] Byddwn i'n dweud, because I work incredibly hard.
[04:25.000 -> 04:28.000] And one of the things I've found over time is,
[04:28.000 -> 04:31.000] you need people who want to work in an entrepreneurial business,
[04:31.000 -> 04:35.000] who can move with the times and who are adaptable.
[04:35.000 -> 04:38.000] Always give your best, very basic.
[04:38.000 -> 04:40.000] Be willing to learn and improve
[04:40.000 -> 04:43.000] and put the interests of the team before your own personal interests.
[04:43.000 -> 04:45.560] And the third one, non-negotiable.
[04:45.560 -> 04:46.680] Got to respect my mom, man.
[04:46.680 -> 04:47.520] That's it.
[04:47.520 -> 04:48.440] She's the OG of the family.
[04:48.440 -> 04:49.280] You got to respect her.
[04:49.280 -> 04:50.120] Respect my mom, then you're good.
[04:50.120 -> 04:50.940] Everything's cool.
[04:50.940 -> 04:51.780] Do you know what?
[04:51.780 -> 04:53.000] A non-negotiable is a great attitude.
[04:53.000 -> 04:55.320] Just everything you do.
[04:55.320 -> 04:59.640] Just be open-minded, work hard, give everything you can.
[04:59.640 -> 05:00.880] Do you think there's a common thread?
[05:00.880 -> 05:01.720] I do.
[05:01.720 -> 05:02.880] Go on.
[05:02.880 -> 05:04.840] Well, the biggest one for me is,
[05:04.840 -> 05:05.400] and people have said it in
[05:05.400 -> 05:11.380] different ways it's the being all in, it's the being dedicated, it is being some people
[05:11.380 -> 05:15.940] say it's being ruthless, some people say it's being committed, all in was what Stephen Gerrard
[05:15.940 -> 05:22.400] said and I love that one because I actually think that my three non-negotiables have definitely
[05:22.400 -> 05:28.560] changed over the years but being all in is the only one that has remained stable the whole time because I don't I don't
[05:28.560 -> 05:33.400] see how you can be high performance at anything unless you're all-in I think
[05:33.400 -> 05:37.680] actually I can be high performance at something right without being all-in if
[05:37.680 -> 05:41.520] you're really bloody talented because I think Lionel Messi could not be all-in
[05:41.520 -> 05:47.920] in football and still be good right but I don't think you realize your true potential I don't think that you get to
[05:47.920 -> 05:50.960] the end of the days and think you know what I've done myself justice unless you
[05:50.960 -> 05:55.080] were all in because there's always that little bit left on the table where you
[05:55.080 -> 06:01.080] go what if what if I just done a little bit more what if I'd really gone to my
[06:01.080 -> 06:04.200] maximum and you'll never know and that's a real shame I think for a lot of people
[06:04.200 -> 06:09.400] yeah and that's why I like I disagree slightly that I think like Lionel Messi could be
[06:09.920 -> 06:15.320] World-class performance without going all in but I don't think he could be his definition of high performance
[06:15.320 -> 06:22.240] So that leads us to Mario Rotogi who gave us that distinction of world-class is a set of external
[06:22.960 -> 06:24.760] parameters or
[06:24.760 -> 06:26.520] Guidelines for what would
[06:26.520 -> 06:31.360] constitute excellent performance. High performance is more subjective what
[06:31.360 -> 06:37.040] you're capable of doing so I think Messi could be world-class but not necessarily
[06:37.040 -> 06:40.920] his definition of high performance which just sets a completely different bar.
[06:40.920 -> 06:48.920] Let's take this a step further then, what is the learnings from this that have been applied in the real world that excites
[06:48.920 -> 06:51.440] you the most either from a guest that we've had on the podcast or something
[06:51.440 -> 06:55.200] that you've seen on social media where you think bloody hell these non
[06:55.200 -> 07:00.840] negotiables are really really resonating? I've seen a few I've seen on that
[07:00.840 -> 07:08.000] Arsenal documentary that was done on Amazon Amazon, Michael Arteta, a'r unigolion,
[07:08.000 -> 07:26.080] rydyn ni wedi clywed Marcus Rashford o Manchester United a dweud bod y cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i'r cwmni a ddod o hyd i' ei gyfathrebu. Felly, dyna'r ddau gyflymau gwirioneddol.
[07:26.080 -> 07:29.280] Rydw i wedi clywed Steve Barthwick o Gymru yn siarad amdano.
[07:29.280 -> 07:31.960] Felly, mewn y sport elit,
[07:31.960 -> 07:33.880] rwy'n teimlo'n fawr yn ymdrechus
[07:33.880 -> 07:35.520] pan fyddwch chi'n clywed ymgeiswyr
[07:35.520 -> 07:37.400] yn defnyddio'r iaith hwn
[07:37.400 -> 07:39.840] i gallu cyfathrebu
[07:39.840 -> 07:42.720] gyda'r cyfathrebu a'r cyd-dynesydd,
[07:42.720 -> 07:45.000] beth ydy'r standardau o'u ddyluniad sy'n cael eu cymryd. Felly, rwy'n cael ychydig o ffwrdd bob tro rwy'n clywed hwnna. with transparency and then consistency what their standards of their culture
[07:45.000 -> 07:48.960] are expected to be so I get a little bit of a buzz every time I hear that.
[07:48.960 -> 07:52.040] I loved it when Eddie Howe said the first thing he did with his Newcastle squad
[07:52.040 -> 07:56.000] was ask them what their non-negotiables were and then tell them to listen to the
[07:56.000 -> 08:00.920] podcast, fantastic, but I see a lot of schools getting in touch on LinkedIn or
[08:00.920 -> 08:09.000] on Instagram or on Twitter and they have boards of non-negotiables. So for people listening to this, let's help them create their own three
[08:09.000 -> 08:12.600] non-negotiables. What's the first thing that you think we should think about
[08:12.600 -> 08:16.920] when we try and work out what they are? The first thing is that phrase that we
[08:16.920 -> 08:21.040] use countless times on the podcast, success leaves clues. You have to
[08:21.040 -> 08:27.000] identify what success is in your world. If you're in the sales team, it might be the best customer feedback you've ever had. If you're a teacher, it might be the Mae angen i chi ddewis beth yw cyfansoddiad yn eich byd. Os ydych yn y teimladau gwerthu, efallai yw'r cyflog cyntaf o'ch gynhyrchau.
[08:27.000 -> 08:31.000] Os ydych yn y ddarlith, efallai yw'r ystafell, y myfyrwyr,
[08:31.000 -> 08:33.000] y byd y gwnaethoch chi'n gwneud y mwyaf gwahaniaeth.
[08:33.000 -> 08:36.000] Os ydych yn y gynhyrchau chwaraeon, efallai yw'r gêm cyntaf y gwnaethoch chi'n gynhyrchu.
[08:36.000 -> 08:39.000] Beth bynnag mae, rydych chi'n decydio beth yw'r perymeterau.
[08:39.000 -> 08:42.000] Yna, rydych chi'n cymryd pobl i'w cyfrifol a dweud,
[08:42.000 -> 08:47.980] beth oedd y gwaith sydd oedd yn ymwneud â'r cyfansoddiad? Ychydig fel Greenlights, pan ddewison ni i Matthew McConaughey, you invite people to contribute and say what were the behaviors that were present when success occurred a bit like green lights when we
[08:47.980 -> 08:52.620] Spoke to Matthew McConaughey said look for the good times in your life and work out what you were doing at that point
[08:52.620 -> 08:57.540] So if someone is struggling at the moment, maybe they should think about a time when they felt great and things were going their way
[08:58.000 -> 08:59.320] What were their behaviors?
[08:59.320 -> 09:03.720] What were the people they were hanging around with what were they thinking every time when they woke up in the morning?
[09:03.720 -> 09:06.800] Well think of what emanates from doing precisely that Jake Pa bobl oedd y rhai a oedd yn ymwneud â nhw? Beth oeddent yn meddwl bob amser pan oeddent yn gweithio ym mhob mor? Wel, meddwl am beth sy'n dod o gwbl o'r gwneud hynny, Jake.
[09:06.800 -> 09:08.320] Felly, y peth gyntaf yw,
[09:08.320 -> 09:09.800] beth oedd y gweithgaredd fawr i'w wneud,
[09:09.800 -> 09:12.560] felly dydych chi ddim yn rhaid i chi fynd drwy eich gweithgareddau mwyaf
[09:12.560 -> 09:14.880] neu'ch gweinion neu unrhyw beth sy'n eich gwneud eich bod yn anodd,
[09:14.880 -> 09:16.840] mae'n gwasanaeth fawr i'w wneud.
[09:16.840 -> 09:19.560] Yr ail, byddwch yn debygol o fathau arno,
[09:19.560 -> 09:21.920] felly dydych chi ddim yn mynd i'w gweithio ar gyfer gwybodaeth,
[09:21.920 -> 09:24.160] ond y peth pwysicaf a'r pwysicaf yw
[09:24.160 -> 09:28.160] mae'r hyder yn cael ei ddod o'r gwybod. Felly, beth rydych chi'n ei wneud yma yw going to be struggling for insight. But the third and most significant thing is confidence is built upon evidence. So what you're doing here is finding
[09:28.160 -> 09:32.360] evidence of what you're already capable of doing and what you're trying to do
[09:32.360 -> 09:35.740] for high performance. Again is that phrase that so many of our guests have
[09:35.740 -> 09:39.640] told us about, is then apply it with consistency. So you're trying to find
[09:39.640 -> 09:42.520] what you know you're capable of doing and then just do that every day, every
[09:42.520 -> 09:45.540] time, every occasion occasion which eventually leads to
[09:45.940 -> 09:51.360] High performance results see I pick up on two bigger lessons. I've learned from hosting this podcast
[09:51.360 -> 09:56.140] The first one is that if you're not agile, you're fragile. Yeah, so when you're thinking of your three non-negotiables
[09:56.140 -> 10:01.520] Please don't feel that may to be the same forever. Literally. They can be different tomorrow. Absolutely. That's really important
[10:01.520 -> 10:05.920] You know, we're growing all the time, you know, you and I are different people to the people that started this conversation
[10:05.920 -> 10:07.000] five minutes ago, right?
[10:07.000 -> 10:08.000] That's the way the world works.
[10:08.000 -> 10:10.040] And I think that is really important.
[10:10.040 -> 10:14.360] The other big lesson for me was when we spoke with the entrepreneur Susie Ma about infinite
[10:14.360 -> 10:15.360] purpose.
[10:15.360 -> 10:21.440] I think when it comes to finding your non-negotiables, you know, it isn't about having a six pack.
[10:21.440 -> 10:23.840] It's about making sure I'm as fit as I can be.
[10:23.840 -> 10:28.320] You know, that should be a non-negotiable you know that becomes caring for my body well it might be that
[10:28.320 -> 10:32.320] you know sometimes you're a thinner than you should be or fatter than you should
[10:32.320 -> 10:36.860] be or not as cardio fit as you should be but if if care of your body is one of
[10:36.860 -> 10:40.300] your non-negotiables then the right thing is always going to be at the top
[10:40.300 -> 10:46.040] and I think the other thing is like I still think people are a little bit, not
[10:46.040 -> 10:51.040] necessarily shy, but they're a bit nervous or anxious about sharing this kind of stuff.
[10:51.040 -> 10:56.000] I want people to turn non-negotiables into an everyday conversation in the office. So
[10:56.000 -> 10:59.720] if someone's listening to this, they don't have to be the CEO or the MD or the founder,
[10:59.720 -> 11:04.080] they can literally just be a staff member. Start talking like this, start sending emails
[11:04.080 -> 11:09.800] around on a Monday, start asking people, what are your non-negotiables because actually, yes it's
[11:09.800 -> 11:15.360] interesting to hear them but more than that it's a really unique window into the soul
[11:15.360 -> 11:19.520] and the belief system and the confidence and the happiness of that person.
[11:19.520 -> 11:23.520] I think you really very quickly understand someone when you hear their three non-negotiables.
[11:23.520 -> 11:28.880] Yeah, I saw something recently that might help people frame this that it was a it
[11:28.880 -> 11:32.920] was a sign in a dry cleaning company's window that said we can offer you cheap
[11:32.920 -> 11:39.080] fast or quality but they said you can only choose two so if you want it fast
[11:39.080 -> 11:44.160] it's not going to be cheap but it will be quality yeah but if speed isn't the
[11:44.160 -> 11:45.060] option we can offer it cheap but it'll still be quality but if speed isn't the option we can
[11:45.060 -> 11:49.960] offer it cheap but it'll still be quality or if you want equality this is
[11:49.960 -> 11:54.380] where we get confused we can do it fast and it's gonna be expensive but the idea
[11:54.380 -> 11:57.460] is that they're non-negotiables with cheap fast and quality but you can only
[11:57.460 -> 12:01.720] choose two of them you did well it's up to you yeah and it's always well for you
[12:01.720 -> 12:26.000] at one point I was myself but it's up to you as a customer to then say I'll have Ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie, ie yw'r hyn y gallwch chi gobeithio o'n ni. Rydych yn creu sicrhau
[12:26.000 -> 12:28.000] dwi'n gwybod bod yn bob gweithle.
[12:28.000 -> 12:30.000] Ac yna gall pobl roi'r cymorth i chi
[12:30.000 -> 12:32.000] ar yr hyn rydych chi'n gwneud
[12:32.000 -> 12:34.000] i'w ddarparu
[12:34.000 -> 12:36.000] fel i'w gael yn eich gael yn
[12:36.000 -> 12:38.000] ynnol, yn eithaf ddewis
[12:38.000 -> 12:40.000] i syniadau newydd ac
[12:40.000 -> 12:42.000] yn cael eich raisio'ch bar eich hun o
[12:42.000 -> 12:43.000] cyflogau cyhoeddus.
[12:43.000 -> 12:44.000] A allwn ni ddarparu ein tre gweithredwyr
[12:44.000 -> 12:45.060] nid-negotiables then go on?
[12:45.700 -> 12:46.900] All in
[12:46.900 -> 12:48.900] It's my first one
[12:49.540 -> 12:53.400] I'm not sure how to frame this next one, but I want it to be something like
[12:54.180 -> 12:56.180] Like I'm a realist. Yeah
[12:56.200 -> 12:59.800] But I'm also an optimist. So I kind of want to say
[13:00.320 -> 13:02.520] the real optimism which basically means
[13:03.040 -> 13:06.520] Not stupid optimism like everything's gonna be fine because everything isn't always fine
[13:06.520 -> 13:09.560] But optimism that I know that I'll be able to cope with it
[13:09.560 -> 13:15.200] So I think optimism is a is a non-negotiable for me, but not blind faith optimism. So you need to be all in there
[13:15.600 -> 13:21.120] You need to be optimistic and I do think that a really important for me is consistency
[13:21.120 -> 13:23.120] I really struggle with people who
[13:23.160 -> 13:28.000] Are great one day and not great the next or they put a load of effort in one week and they don't the next week and I just
[13:28.000 -> 13:32.960] I don't know where I stand with those people. I think it's very easy to have a conversation
[13:32.960 -> 13:36.620] with someone if they're just not delivering. It's very hard to have a conversation if they
[13:36.620 -> 13:41.220] sometimes are delivering. Yeah, because then the question is what why are they not able
[13:41.220 -> 13:46.600] to do it on a regular basis and there's lots one pick there. So be an optimist Yeah, be consistent
[13:47.000 -> 13:52.760] Be all in I like them. I love they change since we started. Yeah, definitely because they're already positive
[13:53.320 -> 13:56.120] when we first started I would have said like
[13:57.200 -> 13:58.840] constant hard work
[13:58.840 -> 14:02.240] Take the knockbacks and the setbacks and the difficult times
[14:03.040 -> 14:05.880] and you know surround yourself with
[14:05.880 -> 14:09.880] high achievers you know in that sort of thing but even like surrounding yourself
[14:09.880 -> 14:12.800] with high achievers now to me is absolute nonsense because someone can be
[14:12.800 -> 14:18.800] a high achiever but totally against your morals or your mindset or the culture
[14:18.800 -> 14:22.280] that you want to create you know and that's where this podcast has changed
[14:22.280 -> 14:25.720] entirely for me I thought it was about achieving loads, but it isn't it's about
[14:26.440 -> 14:28.440] finding happiness and I love
[14:28.880 -> 14:35.040] Optimistic people who are consistent and give it their all love that I've given you enough thinking time. Oh, yeah
[14:35.080 -> 14:35.580] No
[14:35.580 -> 14:36.040] well
[14:36.040 -> 14:41.400] My first one is one that my dad used to say to me was that if if your presence doesn't make a difference
[14:41.720 -> 14:43.760] Nobody will notice your absence lovely
[14:43.760 -> 14:45.920] So it's that idea of in every interaction you do just try and offer something Os nad yw eich cyfnod yn gwneud gwahaniaeth, nid ydyn nhw'n ei weld eich gosod. Llawn. Felly dyna'r syniad, ar unrhyw gweithgaredd rydych chi'n ei wneud,
[14:45.920 -> 14:47.600] gobeithio ofyn rhywbeth,
[14:47.600 -> 14:50.400] dod i mewn i edrych i wneud cyfraniad
[14:50.400 -> 14:52.320] sy'n werthfawr i bobl.
[14:52.320 -> 14:54.640] Felly, ar unrhyw gweithgaredd fel hwn,
[14:54.640 -> 14:56.960] dyna'r peth a gafodd fy nabod pan roedd gen i swydd dda
[14:56.960 -> 14:58.320] a gofodd i mi ystyried cyfnodau
[14:58.320 -> 15:00.320] ac roeddwn i'n teimlo nad oedd gen i nib yn cyfraniad ag ychydig
[15:00.320 -> 15:02.000] ac yna roeddwn i'n bwysig
[15:02.000 -> 15:06.720] ac ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, ymhellach, yna'r apathy a chynnydd. Felly, cyfrifoldeb cyffredinol.
[15:06.720 -> 15:25.120] Yr ail yw, gobeithio cael ychydig o'r gwrthwyneb, oherwydd rwy'n credu, fel y byddwch yn meddwl am y cyfrifi rwy'n ceisio creu amgylchedd lle y gall pobl mwynhau.
[15:25.120 -> 15:28.960] Ac yna'r trwydd, yw'r ddiddordeb.
[15:30.480 -> 15:33.040] Mae'n ddweud ychydig yn ddiddordeb, ond dwi'n credu bod,
[15:34.000 -> 15:37.600] pan ydych chi'n ymdrechu pobl gyda ddiddordeb, mae pethau o gyd ymwneud â hyn,
[15:37.600 -> 15:41.280] yw ymdrechu pobl gyda ddiddordeb, gweld pobl, clywed nhw,
[15:42.080 -> 15:45.760] dyweddwch, dyweddwch, yw'n ddiddordeb i bobl. Rwy'n credu bod yr holl beth hwnnw'n cael ei ddysgu,
[15:45.760 -> 15:48.080] ac rwy'n credu bod, wrth wneud hynny,
[15:48.080 -> 15:49.360] mae pobl yn teimlo i ddod o'r ffordd
[15:49.360 -> 15:51.520] ac yn ofyn mwy,
[15:51.520 -> 15:54.240] i mi fy hun a'r bobl rydych chi'n gweithio gyda.
[15:54.240 -> 15:54.880] Felly dyma'r tri.
[15:54.880 -> 15:56.720] Gwneud cyfrifau positif,
[15:56.720 -> 15:57.840] ceisio gael mwy o mhrof,
[15:57.840 -> 15:59.360] ond gwneud hynny gyda'r ddiddorol.
[15:59.360 -> 15:59.840] Rwy'n hoffi.
[15:59.840 -> 16:00.800] Fy ffrind, diolch yn fawr am hynny.
[16:00.800 -> 16:01.680] Rwy'n mwynhau'r siaradau mawr.
[16:01.680 -> 16:02.960] Ie, roedd yn dda iawn, diolch.
[16:02.960 -> 16:04.720] Ac nawr, ein hysbyseb i chi.
