1. A quote I’m resonating with this week
This quote from the wonderful author Philip K Dick never gets old for me:
“Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn’t go away.” Read More →
In part 1 of this article (Click here), we took a look at some of the challenges and confusion we’re facing as a species, as massive global changes collide to create an uncertain landscape and some troubling consequences – not least an unprecedented rise in chronic psychological suffering. Here in part 2, we explore the challenge – and the huge opportunity – represented by the current mainstream understanding of psychology.
(A simple solution to stress, pressure and burnout in the NHS)
As you may know, the issue of stress and burnout is pretty much an epidemic in the world of healthcare, so it’s one of the places where subtractive psychology has so much to offer. Why?
Because in a domain where people are insanely busy, and have crucial, life and death decisions to make, something that actually takes things off your mind automatically and uncovers your innate clarity is a godsend.

This episode is one we’ve been trying to organise for a while, because it’s with Louise O’Dalaigh, a woman who’s been working to introduce the principles behind clarity into the National Health Service (NHS).

Could this piece of research be PROOF of a single cause behind all mental illness?
A few months ago, I recorded an interview with my friend and colleague, board-certified psychiatrist Dr Bill Pettit. During the course of one of our conversations, he revealed something which stopped me in my tracks. If, as we believe, what Dr Pettit shared is proof of a single cause behind all mental illness, the implications are enormous…
Let me set the scene for you…
Bill has successfully treated thousands of patients (many of them people with severe clinical diagnoses) by sharing the principles behind clarity with them.
In the process, he’s come to the conclusion that there’s one cause (and one cure) to all mental illness.
Stop and think about the implications of that for a moment…

In this episode of the Get Clarity podcast, you’re going to be hearing a conversation I had with a good friend and colleague, Clarity Coach Christine Mitchell. Christine works with people who arrive with a variety of challenges and objectives, particularly around anxiety, stress and OCD. And one of the interesting things about Christine is she’s working more and more with nurses and first-responders.
And here’s one of the reasons I’m really excited to be sharing this conversation with you. As you may already know, at our company, we’re passionate about what we call subtractive psychology: the only thing you can learn that takes things off your mind automatically and uncovers your true potential.
It works on the basis that human psychology functions perfectly; that every person is born with innate resilience, clarity, natural motivation, the capacity to enjoy life, and navigate its ups and downs with ease.
So what does that actually mean, in rough going?

1. A quote I’m resonating with this week
The subject of free speech is one that’s incredibly important, and appears to be increasingly under threat. While Noam Chomsky is definitely not everyone’s cup of tea, he’s very on-point in this statement about the importance of free speech:
“Goebbels was in favour of free speech for views he liked. So was Stalin. If you’re really in favour of free speech, then you’re in favour of freedom of speech for precisely the views you despise. Otherwise, you’re not in favour of free speech.”

Are formless principles too ‘woo-woo’ for a corporate lawyer?
In this episode of the get clarity podcast, we’re going to be answering this question about subtractive psychology: are formless principles too ‘woo-woo’ for a corporate lawyer?
Here’s the back story.
You may recall that I conducted a 3-day Clarity 1:1 Coaching Intensive with a corporate lawyer named Andy, in front of a live audience of coaches, therapists and trainers.
A year later, I did a live follow-up interview with Andy in front of an audience, to find out how the experience changed his world and give people the chance to ask us BOTH questions.
There were some real surprises – for instance someone asked Andy whether he would have been prepared to pay full price for the intensive, knowing what he knows now (Andy paid £4,000 instead of the usual fee of £30,000, in return for letting an audience watch and listen as he went through the entire experience).

1. A quote I’m resonating with this week
In a recent ‘Ask Me Anything’ session on his podcast, Sam Harris was answering a question about what careers he would advise. He talked (of course) about the advance of technology, and avoiding jobs likely to be automated soon. He also said that the careers which would likely be the last to be automated were those involving human creativity, taste and insight. This is a point I made in-depth in my book RESULTS. Here’s what Harris said about the importance of relationships:
“I think lawyers and accountants and many other white-collar jobs will be automated away before seemingly more menial jobs will be. Obviously we will want to remain in relationship to other people, so careers that give primacy to relationships – being a psychotherapist, or a coach – seems to me to give much more primacy to the relationship than being an oncologist does.”
