We're being, as always, entirely practical in this episode - we're exploring how to make the right impression and change your life.

And that change is immediate - no five-year plans required!

And that change is effortless - all that is required for you to live your "best" life is to turn up to it, in the here and now.

We cover career, parenting, relationships, self-love, happiness, calm and joy in just over thirty minutes - something of an achievement! Or, perhaps, not - when you realise how, rather than complicating your life through thinking about it, you just live it, live the moment.

We cover opportunity, synchronicity, presence and attraction - the law of attraction, if you will - we cover how to allow all that's best for you happen.

In other words, you don't go looking for it, what's best find you. Seek and you won't find!!

And, as always, we've a couple of lovely little stories to illustrate how all this works in everyday practice.

Enjoy.

Don't go changing! Don't plan forward! Just turn up to your life in the here and now.

In this life of yours, you don’t need to know where you’re going, you need to know where you are!

That's the simple, key and life-changing message in this episode. And there's a whole heap of science to confirm what happens to you and for you when you turn up to the here and now.

What happens to you? The very shape and structure of your brain changes - you enable your subcortical brain operate in an effortless way that makes it fully fit for purpose in this 21st century.

What happens for you? The short answer... all that's best.

In this episode, I provide you with the simple steps to enable all this happen to and for you in a way that your thinking mind would discredit as being far too simple, unlikely to work and unrealistic.

But this episode deals with these normal crazy booby traps too.

Truth is, in following these steps, you'll feel your life changing straight away.

Yes, life doesn't have to be a struggle, regardless of what you think about what's actually going on in your life right now or your previous "failures".

Yes, you can allow what's best for you come about in your life by allowing yourself be. A lot of "allowing" going on here. And this is the secret to a wonderful life.

We're constantly plagued by one of our thinking mind's greatest drawbacks... wanting.

So, for starters in this episode, we explore the fundamentals of want, starting with the most fundamental want of all... wanting to be wanted! After all, it's nice to be liked, particularly when, using our normal thinking mind normally, we may not like ourselves all that much.

We explore comparative want - wanting what others have, wanting what we think makes those others look more happy and successful that we think we are ourselves.

We inevitably explore jealousy and the roots of comparative thinking and, in the end, we realise that it is thinking itself that is the root of all our problems or, should I say, perceived problems.

We'd be better off not thinking at all! We'd be better of... letting ourselves be.

And that's where this episode will take you.

Your life can change in a moment - a moment otherwise known as "the here and now".

And, yet, very few people on this planet turn up to the here and now or even know how to do that.

And that turns out to be the most important thing that you need to do in your life today. If you don't, you're not living, you're merely existing. And, when we merely exist, nothing ever changes.

And, I assume, as we all do, that you want change in your life - big change, small change, change some aspect of your life or, to put it more simply, we'd all like to be a bit happier, more successful, healthier, fitter - you name it.

So, in this episode - the 250th Episode of To Succeed... Just Let Go - I provide you with step-by-step practical tips that you can put into practice even as you listen to this episode.

Step-by-step effortless little actions that will... change your life in this here and now.

You have a choice - you can either use your mind normally and, in the process, allow your normal thinking mind abuse you or...

You can take charge of your inner world and transform your outer world and, while you're at it, the lives of those around you and, as if that weren't wonderful enough, add your little bit of joy and calm to a world that badly needs it.

In this episode, we explore how to do that in the simplest and straightforward way by using something that you're already doing... breathing.

We explore why this is so important and, in doing so, we begin not only to understand the consequences but to actually experience them in terms of what happens in our daily lives, how we behave moment-to-moment and how we meet and rise to the occasion when confronted by life's everyday challenges - small, medium and large.

But, as always, there's more to it than that. Not only is this about looking after yourself and living the life that's best for you, it's actually a matter of life and death... yours.

Words have power - we explore that a little at the outset in this episode.

But that's only a prelude to a flow of information and insight that, I hope, will allow you awaken, know yourself, experience your inner power and, then, allow it to be unleashed on a waiting world, starting with what you might consider to be your own "little world".

There's a lot of "allowing" going on here. Truth is, we don't have to do an awful lot to change our world and, as we explore in this episode, this change can take place in the twinkling of an eye.

In fact, you could say, we have to do less.

We only need do the important stuff (effortlessly), informed as to what is important by... simply turning up to the here and now.

Now, this is a matter of life and death - your turning up to your life will enable you start living like you mean it; it will impact those you love and those around you (including those who you think you certainly do not love!) and it will impact the world at large.

Stop being part of the problem - this chaotic world in which we exist - and start being the solution... effortlessly. It means a lot.

It's all around us - we may even be a player in the normal crazy game. Yes, inappropriate behaviour abounds and is, as we speak, ruining lives.

All reaction is inappropriate because all reaction is automatic and defensive - that's how the normal mind works and that's what we're seeing around us everywhere we look.

To make this world a better place - and, by that I mean, to make your life less stressful and, perhaps, even joyful - you need to deal appropriately with inappropriate behaviour.

That is what this episode is about. This episode explains exactly how to do what is required, what is best because, obviously, reacting to inappropriate behaviour is, actually, just more inappropriate behaviour!

To explore this, I'm looking at one of the most potentially fraught areas of our everyday interactions with others... family! How do you deal with the madness that is so prevalent in the family dynamic? Well, this episode explores both its origins and the appropriate required action.

Hope it spurs you into do what needs to be done, saying what needs to be said and, as a result, making this world a better place.

Yes, the gift is your's to give - you can give yourself everything your heart desires - it simply depends on a couple of fundamental choices that you need to make.

In this episode, we explore one of life's burning questions: What Do You Want Out of Life?

But we explore it in a way that might surprise you. In doing so, you'll discover, that all that's best in life is sitting right in front of you, before your very eyes. All you have to do is come to your senses to experience that kind of everyday life you'd like to have... every day.

This isn't a trick. Neither is it a nice idea or wishful thinking. And it's as simple as breathing in and out.

In short, everything that's best for you in life depends on how you turn up to your life. It's kinda obvious when it's put that way, isn't it?

I could put it even more simply: your future depends on how you turn up to the present.
