Episode description
Today's episode goes in a slightly different direction. One my biggest shifts over the last several years has been to ask myself better questions when I'm struggling or working through particular problems in my personal life, fitness or business. Albert Einstein used to give the same end of year exam question to all his students because "the answers are always changing" – these are some of the questions that I've taken directly from the notes on my phone. I come back to them regularly (especially if I'm struggling or feeling demotivated in a specific area of my life)
I hope you enjoy this two-part podcast.
