1. A quote I’m resonating with
My new book, The Little Book of Results is being released by Wiley at the end of this month, so I thought I’d share the AA Milne quote that points to the central premise of the book (Milne was the creator of Winnie the Pooh, so he knew what he was on about).
“You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.”
2. 7-Point Checklist for Doing Your Own Retreat
We’ve got the Clarity Life Transformation Retreat coming up next month in Tenerife, and people have been talking to me about doing their own retreat. Attending a multi-day group retreat can be one of the most profoundly transformational experiences you ever have, so delivering your own retreat can be an equally fulfilling and transformational next step. I’ve created a 7-point checklist as a concise guide to the most important things you need to bear in mind when planning and delivering a retreat. You can download your checklist for free here:
3. This week’s glimpse of the future
The Baidu AI can mimic a person’s speech after listening to less than a minute audio. After that, it can replicate your speech with such quality that it will fool a voice recognition system 95% of the time. I have no idea what the broader implications of this are, but the world is changing with dizzying speed. Hold onto your hat!
4. A surprising video with Michael Neill, Garret Kramer and me
I was on a call with my buddies Michael Neill and Garret Kramer the other day, and we were reflecting on what we each mean by the phrase, “Getting in the game”. Our answers may surprise you!

5. This week’s 3 minute miracle
I’ve loved the Manchester group Doves from the first time I heard them. I’ve seen them live in concert a couple of times (excellent) and their album The Last Broadcast is a cracker. Here’s one of the more splendid tracks off that album, There Goes The Fear. Enjoy!
That’s it for this week!
Big love
Jamie
