  SPEAKER_00: Happy Tuesday, everyone, and welcome to the Daily Reset.
• 0:06
  SPEAKER_00: Today we have day two of the masterclass, which
• 0:11
  I am really enjoying doing and I hope those of you that are
• 0:16
  managing to listen to
• 0:18
  it or watch it are enjoying it too um today we were looking at
• 0:26
  um going deep on
• 0:27
  understanding ourselves because we really need to do that
• 0:30
  before we look at
• 0:32
  SPEAKER_00: recalibrating or redesigning um
• 0:36
  and yeah hopefully you have had a chance to do your balance
• 0:41
  reset I know I did
• 0:42
  another one today and look at your human design and profile and
• 0:48
  do some of the
• 0:50
  reflection prompts about what have you been doing or what
• 0:56
  advice have you been
• 0:57
  following that really doesn't fit you and where are you forcing
• 1:00
  rather than flowing
• 1:03
  and what strengths have you been overlooking because we can
• 1:06
  easily tend to be
• 1:09
  self-critical which I spoke about yesterday in the masterclass
• 1:15
  when we were looking
• 1:15
  at the hidden cost of drift and what are some of the patterns
• 1:21
  that keep showing up
• 1:22
  SPEAKER_00: that keep us stuck and definitely
• 1:29
  self,
• 1:30
  being our own worst critic is something that really can hold us
• 1:36
  back.
• 1:37
  SPEAKER_00: So I really want you to think about that and read your insights,
• 1:47
  SPEAKER_00: profile insights,
• 1:48
  SPEAKER_00: and let me know if it resonates.
• 1:53
  SPEAKER_00: Because it's really great to just be able to take a step back and really
• 1:58
  SPEAKER_00: review where you are in your life.
• 2:03
  I always say that in business you're always looking at data and
• 2:08
  auditing what's
• 2:10
  going on in your organization but in our lives we tend to not
• 2:15
  do that so this is an
• 2:17
  opportunity to just step back and look at what's been
• 2:22
  potentially going unnoticed
• 2:24
  SPEAKER_00: for a while and
• 2:28
  This week we're hopefully going to take some small steps to
• 2:32
  change all of that.
• 2:35
  Tomorrow I am super excited because we're going to be looking
• 2:40
  at AI for humans and
• 2:42
  what I mean by that is looking at how we can use AI ethically
• 2:48
  for our human
• 2:49
  SPEAKER_00: flourishing.
• 2:51
  and I write a lot in my blog about human flourishing and
• 2:56
  building technology for
• 2:57
  that and I'm really excited to show you some of the things that
• 3:06
  I've been doing
• 3:07
  that have really transformed my life and how technology can
• 3:13
  support us rather than
• 3:14
  SPEAKER_00: overwhelm us and why kind of getting clarity
• 3:20
  means more than ever now in this AI driven world because we are
• 3:26
  all being I guess
• 3:29
  encouraged to use AI in our jobs and in life and really looking
• 3:38
  at what are we
• 3:39
  using it for and how is it helping us and we'll be drilling in
• 3:44
  tomorrow to what
• 3:46
  SPEAKER_00: parts of your life feel
• 3:49
  Complicated and what could you use technology to help simplify
• 3:55
  and also what what
• 3:57
  skills and qualities are going to matter most in the future and
• 4:02
  so yeah I'm really
• 4:04
  excited to do that day and I've just been doing a lot of
• 4:09
  reflection on my own
• 4:11
  SPEAKER_00: personal journey and
• 4:15
  I guess getting the confidence to do some of these things and a
• 4:21
  lot of the time it
• 4:24
  is about taking the actions that gives you the clarity and I
• 4:30
  also talk about a lot
• 4:31
  about this on my blog that you just do not get clarity without
• 4:41
  actually taking
• 4:42
  SPEAKER_00: steps and
• 4:45
  to see what actually is going to work for you and by having
• 4:52
  more awareness of your
• 4:55
  archetype and your human design profile you can really start
• 5:00
  doing things that help
• 5:02
  you rather than hinder you so taking a look at your profile and
• 5:08
  your balance
• 5:10
  SPEAKER_00: archetype are things that will hopefully really really help
• 5:15
  and this is not about reinvention it's about recalibration and
• 5:23
  yeah we're going to
• 5:24
  be getting into how we can take those steps on day four we're
• 5:33
  going to be looking
• 5:34
  on Thursday we're going to be looking at what patterns keep
• 5:37
  showing up and what are
• 5:39
  they protecting you from and what might become possible if
• 5:42
  those patterns changed
• 5:44
  and then on Friday on day five we're going to be looking at how
• 5:48
  to design your life
• 5:49
  intentionally so this is really exciting for me what are the
• 5:59
  operating systems and
• 6:00
  the new ways of being that we can do now so that we can live on
• 6:05
  purpose not on
• 6:07
  SPEAKER_00: autopilot and
• 6:11
  Yeah,
• 6:12
  I was reflecting on the balance method that kind of is the
• 6:18
  initials of balance.
• 6:21
  SPEAKER_00: And most people are trying to change your life by setting bigger goals.
• 6:27
  But behavioral science shows that lasting change rarely comes
• 6:32
  from the goals alone.
• 6:37
  SPEAKER_00: And for me,
• 6:39
  it was the foundation of balance so for B it's all about
• 6:45
  breathing and your body
• 6:47
  and these are the seven small shifts that will compound into
• 6:54
  lasting change and the
• 6:56
  initials of balance so B for your breath and breathing and your
• 7:01
  body because your
• 7:03
  SPEAKER_00: physiology really shapes your mental state and
• 7:07
  Research in Neuroscience and Physiology shows that breathing
• 7:10
  patterns and physical
• 7:12
  SPEAKER_00: movement or exercise directly influence the nervous system.
• 7:17
  So practices like slow breathing and physical activity can
• 7:22
  reduce stress and really
• 7:24
  SPEAKER_00: improve emotional regulation.
• 7:29
  SPEAKER_00: When your body is regulated and energized,
• 7:32
  your brain becomes more capable of creativity and problem
• 7:36
  solving and emotional
• 7:37
  SPEAKER_00: balance.
• 7:38
  SPEAKER_00: So that is the B of balance.
• 7:40
  SPEAKER_00: And then A is for aligning your mind.
• 7:44
  SPEAKER_00: And this is all really based on your thoughts guide your focus.
• 7:49
  And cognitive psychology shows that attention and belief
• 7:53
  systems influence behavior.
• 7:56
  SPEAKER_00: And the brain's reticular activating system,
• 7:59
  SPEAKER_00: the RAS,
• 8:00
  SPEAKER_00: filters information based on what we focus on,
• 8:03
  SPEAKER_00: meaning that our mental framing shapes what we notice and pursue.
• 8:09
  SPEAKER_00: So what we constantly focus on becomes the reality our brain reinforces.
• 8:16
  SPEAKER_00: So yeah, that is a big one.
• 8:21
  SPEAKER_00: And then L is about living your why.
• 8:24
  SPEAKER_00: So this all comes back down to purpose.
• 8:27
  SPEAKER_00: And purpose improves well-being.
• 8:30
  Studies in positive psychology show that people who feel
• 8:34
  connected to a sense of
• 8:36
  SPEAKER_00: meaning report higher levels of life satisfaction,
• 8:39
  SPEAKER_00: resilience and long-term health.
• 8:41
  And living with purpose provides direction and a powerful
• 8:45
  source of motivation that
• 8:46
  SPEAKER_00: sustains effort through difficulties.
• 8:50
  So really what I built balance for was to help people get to
• 8:58
  their whys and we can
• 9:00
  SPEAKER_00: talk a bit more about that over the next few days.
• 9:04
  SPEAKER_00: The second A is for acting with intention.
• 9:10
  SPEAKER_00: So...
• 9:12
  Behavioral research constantly shows that small actions
• 9:16
  repeated daily create
• 9:17
  lasting change so this is not about major major things habits
• 9:22
  compound over time
• 9:24
  and gradually shape your identity so it's not the big gesture
• 9:29
  that transforms your
• 9:30
  life but the constant daily choices that accumulate into
• 9:34
  something extraordinary
• 9:36
  Intentional action bridges the gap between who you are and who
• 9:41
  you want to become.
• 9:45
  SPEAKER_00: The N is for noticing patterns.
• 9:50
  SPEAKER_00: So as you've probably become aware,
• 9:55
  SPEAKER_00: self-awareness is one of the strongest predictors of personal growth.
• 9:59
  SPEAKER_00: And self-reflection helps us see patterns in behaviour,
• 10:03
  SPEAKER_00: relationships and decision-making that would otherwise run on autopilot.
• 10:07
  SPEAKER_00: So this week we're getting aware.
• 10:09
  SPEAKER_00: And when we notice our patterns, we gain the power to change them.
• 10:13
  SPEAKER_00: And without awareness, we just simply are repeating the same cycles.
• 10:19
  SPEAKER_00: The S is for serving others.
• 10:23
  Human wellbeing is deeply social and research consistently
• 10:27
  shows that helping
• 10:28
  others and building meaningful relationships increases
• 10:31
  happiness and reduces
• 10:32
  SPEAKER_00: stress.
• 10:34
  Contribution creates connection and connection is one of the
• 10:38
  most fundamental human needs.
• 10:41
  SPEAKER_00: And finally, the E is for evolving daily and I love this.
• 10:45
  SPEAKER_00: Growth is not a single breakthrough moment.
• 10:48
  SPEAKER_00: It's an ongoing process of learning, adjusting and improving over time.
• 10:53
  SPEAKER_00: The compound effect of daily evolution is extraordinary.
• 10:57
  Small improvements repeated consistently create transformations
• 11:01
  that no single
• 11:02
  SPEAKER_00: event could achieve.
• 11:04
  SPEAKER_00: So that is the idea of balance.
• 11:07
  SPEAKER_00: Small daily habits,
• 11:10
  SPEAKER_00: massive compounding returns,
• 11:12
  SPEAKER_00: not just emotionally,
• 11:13
  SPEAKER_00: but physically,
• 11:15
  SPEAKER_00: psychologically and socially emotionally.
• 11:18
  because your life is not created in big moments it's created in
• 11:22
  your days and your
• 11:24
  SPEAKER_00: day creates your life see you tomorrow everyone have a great day
