Super Heroes - Who's Yours? A 5 minute podcast - a five minute quickie Are there super heroes in the world? I don't think so (Well sort of) There are ordinary people doing extraordinary things. What's your super power and how do you use it? Did you know you have a super power, an ability of doing something really well. There's a way to find out your talents, the ones you're simply not aware of and I'll challenge you to find out. When you find out I'll pose some questions that might point you the direction of your passion and along the path you were destined to follow - That's a bit deep Cloughie  :O) You'll love the background music - I guarantee it.

A weird connection They, those people who know these things, say we're all connected and I have a few examples in my life that go along with this. In fact you have probably experienced connections in fact you may have said 'I (we) really connected' - If you have how did you connect?. Let's explore together. I'll share my examples, cos it's good to share, of working with connections and in one disconnecting which really had a major effect on my life and what happened subsequently. I've just reminded myself I have a process in the hypnosis section at paulcloughonline.com/podcast using this. One example is how I used this and got over a fear at the same time. I will also go into more detail on how we can both explore, dive deeper, into this and the HOW we can use this phenomena for good ;O). If you enjoy this and have a at least one 'take away' form it please help and share to someone you think will be interested or benefit - It's a lovely way to pay if forward and expand the integrated field of learning.

A challenge to excel A five minute podcast Are you up to challenge that may just make your life excellent? Following on from the longer podcasts #109 & #110 Taking  responsibility of how you feel and how you behave I wanted to add one small and simple step that makes for an even better experience. It's a case of the blindingly obvious that I, we, seem to miss and it takes only a second to make this micro shift for a macro effect. I then wondered where else can we use this - have a listen and let me know what you think please Shine brightly Paul Please remember you can leave a comment or email me with questions, requests and feedback.

When failure meets success A five minute podcast - the FMQ (5 minute quickie) 'The secret of success is not always in the outcome but in the standards of effort' and there's examples all over the place that this is so true. There is a presupposition in NLP - 'There's no failure only feedback' and there's examples everywhere where this is so true. In fact so many successes actually came from so called failures. This all being true is something to take on a deeper dive if only for around 5 minutes and when you come along you will find more to think about and do. This may also remind you of a previous FMQ where we discussed being the best version of YOU. Come on let's go deeper and have a listen along with me.

A sad day A time to reflect, well it was for me  

THE SECRET _ Choosing how you want to feel A longer PDU podcast Continuing on from #110 what makes you feel what you feel, who chooses how you feel. We've all heard people saying the weather affects the way they feel - really? Maybe it's economy or my boss or the telephone or you fill in the blank - REALLY???????? If any of these were to be the truth it means you have to wait for those things to change before you can and the question I ask is -  HOW LONG ARE YOU PREPARED TO WAIT? You choose how you feel, you choose your emotions and what I mean by that is you choose unconsciously but it's still you. Even if you agree with me you, like me, end up not choosing the the most appropriate emotion and here's where our conscious mind comes in to help make better unconscious decisions. Come with me and learn a few ways of creating this change and see how it will change your life in so many contexts. It's those ripple of change going further than you could ever imagine. Please, if you have a moment, share with my your

Combining Hypnosis and Meditation - Do you want to? If you only meditated 5 minutes a day, your own personal five minute quickie, I believe your life would change dramatically. I think I could even put a 'Cloughie' guarantee on this. AND.......... Because I think with a little bit of the right hypnosis we can improve our meditations the 'Cloughie' guarantee is a homey I know I've tried to meditate with success and sometimes not so much and I began to wonder what would happen if we used the power of your unconscious mind to help and, I guess, in effect create a wonderful alignment that can only grow and allow you to access your true potential. I'll say no more, please, if this interests you simply send an email to paul@paulclough.co.uk  with something like "Hypnosis meditation YES" in the subject line.

The secret of balancing negativity - a visualisation Let's use seeing the worst - Really Paul????? Yep and balancing this with seeing the best This started with hearing the term 'Negative visualisation' and with negative being in the title gave me a little concern. Visualsing the worst that could happen, to me, isn't the most healthy practice especially when you associate into that visualisation. BUT............ I've had a little think and wondered how could we use this and adapt this process into something of value. I'll share with you, my friend, my thoughts and 'hows' if you would spare a moment to listen. It's only a few minutes and could make a massive change in your choices and the only cost is for you to share your 'take away(s)' with a one other and ask them to do the same. pay it forward and make a change in your life and so many others. Remember you will never know how far the ripples of change go and that's a great thing NOT to know  :O) Shine brightly Paul Please remember you can leave a comment o

Let's learn to re-act or act - WISELY A PDU (Personal Development Unplugged) podcast You decide how you act or re-act - Decide well and take responsibility for all your actions, yes even the bad ones ;0) This will probably end up as a two part podcast because as I began it just grew from deciding how we act and deciding how we feel and to try to keep them together was just too much for my ikkle old brain of main. So.............. Do you believe you decide on every, yes every, behaviour or action you take? Maybe not consciously but always unconsciously. f you don't then who does decide????? It really isn't those nasty people, the weather or the financial climate, the news or your boss or your clients or your partner or even your family. Because if you believe that then you would have to wait of the culprit(s) to decide again which would be silly. Really they are all excuses. Let's have a chat and then go on to me sharing ways you can change your unconscious mind to make great decisions. Yep you will need a pen

The secret of the uncomfortable comfort zone A 5 minute quickie podcast Oh it's that word 'secret' because this is not a secret but it's hiding in plain sight. What are you talking about Cloughie? Well I'll tell you, It's all about the fallacy of the term 'Comfort Zone' because it's the furthest away from the truth. There is no comfort in this supposedly  zone it's simply a fictitious place that you are familiar with. It really is a lie that we tell ourselves and get to believe in it and the great thing is when you dis-spell the myth you open up the whole world of new exciting experiences and that my friend is AWSOME!!!!!!!!!

Marcus Aurelius - Russell Crowe - my client A five minute quickie podcast of how Marcus Aurelius and one of my clients have come together to give me something to think about. I thought it would be good to share what transpired in my thoughts on how we can use this. So what did M A say 'You can leave life right now - let that re-frame what you say and think' and what did my client say 'I want to be the best version of myself'. Let's consider putting both together and see, hear and feel how that might create a life of success. I'll share a way to put this into practice.

It's time to celebrate Why is it important to celebrate? Well first of all it feels really good and doesn't hurt anyone or anything in fact the effect is long reaching. Trouble is we don't, well I know I don't, deliberately notice our achievements we forget to focus on what's working well but single out the few things that we feel didn't go right. Just as importantly we, well I know I don't, recognise the large number of mini successes. What would happen if we, and me, did? Let me share a few personal stories.

The secret of hope, false hope and wishes A longer podcast What exactly is hope? Let's have a look at false hope - is there such a thing? Hope without conviction may just end up as an unfulfilled wish that floats of into the sunset to become an 'IF ONLY'  - Have you ever experienced that ? I know I have. Even that film on the Law of Attraction 'The Secret' (Oh I love that word) for so many created hope only to let that hope become a wish that never materializes. The thing is it could have done with a little tweak and what is that tweak? I'll share that with you here on this podcast. I'll share with you what's missing together with the beliefs that when adopted solidify that 'hope' into expectation - the next step.  From here you can just fly with only your imagination being your limit and considering that's limitless, your expectations are simply down to you - YAY! As always please listen to the end part of the podcast as it's so important. Shine brightly Paul Please remember you can leave a comment or email

The secret of perfect practice - NOT A 5 minute Quickie Podcast I know this is not a secret - well not any more ;o) So what does practice make - no not perfect - PERMANENT And then I heard a throw away line 'practice when it doesn't matter' - WOW! that makes so much sense and most of us don't do it that I way. When you do practice when it doesn't matter you get to use up all those mistakes and it doesn't matter. Let me share with you ways I've practiced this way, in fact I didn't even know I was doing it this way and the results have been awesome and they will be for you too. Let me know how you get on and if you find something you can really use (and I'd hope so much more than one or two) please share with everyone!!!!!!!!

Warning - Things will never be the same a five minute quickie podcast If things will never be the same again it's time to take responsibility for how things will be or are. Why do you have to take responsibility?  well we've talked before about being at cause and not living on the effect side of life and the effect side of life is bombarding you with so much information most of which you didn't ask for and most pretty useless to crating a great life. The thing is it's so easy not to notice the creeping of this dis-information until it's taken quite a hold and need to do work to get back to where you want to be. That to me is a complete waste of time and time is our rarest commodity. Hope fully this will get you thinking and deciding what you take in and use to create the life you desire :O) Shine brightly Paul Please remember you can leave a comment or email me with questions, requests and feedback.

A personal story of overwhelm I recorded his a short while ago, probably more for my self to understand what was going on in my life. But I've listened to it again and feel it's ok to share. Share because I ask you to share and I have to go one step further, a little more personal, to show it's really ok to share and not only learn but to share those learnings too. So feel free to borrow my learning of being overwhelmed and how my making mistakes was the effect of something else and not to make up the excuses that I(we) tend to do and take responsibility for being the cause of me(you). Like a small snowball I didn't notice things happening, yet like I explain to my clients, they grow bigger as time goes by and only when they get so big only then do we need help to deal with it. The earlier we recognise things not going quite right or that negative feeling just beginning we can change things so much more easily. Let me also share what I did to let go of this overwhelm. Yes I still have this as a work in progre

And if you want it would be great if you could share this and the last podcast to everyone you know, share to all, in fact tell the world ok I've probably gone too far but you get what I'm asking.
