The Dad Who Knows Nothing

25/11/2022

This week I had the privilege of speaking with Myles Wakeham, as we discuss achieving financial independence and sustainability. Myles shares a typical set of steadfast perspectives on life and how to overcome terrible points. The goal of the financial aspect is to reach the point where income surpasses expenses to become financially sustainable. But you need to start down that road to arrive. So, Myles's advice is to go out there and give it a shot.

Here's a breakdown of what to expect in this episode:

• Growing up in a "free-range" lifestyle.

• Borders are not natural. They're artificial.

• What are the opportunities that you can start building?

• Life is a struggle. Some cultures are better at dealing with effort than we are.

• The difference between investing and speculating

• And so much more!

About Myles:

beUnconstrained.com is the story of Myles Wakeham, a contrarian, an immigrant, and someone who questioned the social mantra from childhood. His stories, his discoveries, and results are fascinating. Myles has no job, is financially independent, lives in multiple countries, and pursues opportunities, projects, and passion throughout the globe. If you want to learn how contrarians think and live like this, read Myles' Philosophy, listen to Myles' podcast and read his articles, and learn how to become genuinely unconstrained.

What if you had the tools or the playbook to accurately analyze, assess, predict and manage the behaviors and characteristics of groups and individuals? Think of what that would mean for you as person? As a leader?
Have you ever heard of ? It is a philosophic system based on the fact that many phenomena related to Human Beings occur in a sequence of seven levels - in fact the word Septemic literally means 'of or pertaining to, seven'. 
Septemics is founded on the belief that the entire spectrum of human experience exists along 35 scales - of which there are seven levels to each scale - pinpointing the exact characteristics of human behavior at those levels. 
I spoke with the inventor of Septemics - Jim Marshall - who has over 50,000 hours devoted to the study and practice of multiple dimensions of human development. He has extensive experience as a Human Development Engineer. It was one of the most interesting conversations I have ever had. 
See more about him here: http://septemics.com/about/
He literally wrote the book on Septemics - entitled "Septemics: Hierarchies of Human Phenomena - Analysis, Prediction & Management of Human Affairs".

Make it rain! This expression is common, but do you have what it takes to be "The Rainmaker" for your business? I sit down with the man in South Africa - Di Di "The Rainmaker" Hoffman to talk about this important business skillset. 

What is a "Rainmaker" in business?
Is this skillset something you are born with?

I talk with Di Di "The Rainmaker" Hoffman - an entrepreneur in South Africa who made his business selling medicinal herbs and providing training regarding their use. Did you know there are over 2,000 medicinal herbs in South Africa and the competition in that industry is fierce? This required Di Di to focus on becoming "The Rainmaker" - focusing on relationships which leads to more business. (Link in bio)

Have you ever heard of NLP - Neuro-Linguistic Programming?
We all have mapping that has been created in our minds, through experiences that occurred, some from way back in childhood. This mapping can create negative behaviors in our adult lives, almost imperceptibly. Our brains are the greatest supercomputer ever created, and just like with a computer, we can re-program our brains to change those ingrained perceptions, ideas, and limitations that may be putting a limit on your ability to achieve the best life you can live. 
I spoke with Adrian Moreno, co-creator of the Neuro-Remapping Method, about how to reverse engineer your thoughts and mindset for massive success.

A French baker, a Financial Guy and an Architect all agree to let a guy walk into their place to chat……

This is not the opening line to a joke – but rather the first three guests on my new podcast that I have started as a fun side hobby.

The podcast is “The Dad Who Knows Nothing” – which I could not think of a better way to describe who I am and my approach to learning. I recently embarked on a year-long personal improvement journey to be better - physically, mentally, and emotionally. One of the paths this journey has taken me to is to embrace learning in all forms. As many have said, a setback is only a failure if you don’t learn.

I love to learn and there are so many experts out there that know so much more than me about all kinds of subjects. I want to learn from these people. I am fascinated by their journeys to their chosen skill or profession. James Thurber once said, “It is better to know some of the questions than all of the answers”, so I started this podcast to hopefully ask the right questions. I cannot wait to see where this journey takes me, and I would love for you to be a part of it.

So, if this resonates with you, press play wherever you get your podcasts. Or better yet, contact me and let’s have a conversation about that skill or profession that you are an expert in – because I want to learn from you!
