Embracing Change To Achieve Life On Your Own Terms - with Mark Stokes

With over 30 years experience as a property developer, mentor, author and business investor, there is no denying this weeks guest Mark Stokes is a man on a mission. Mark’s strong passion for creating shared value and inspiring others to achieve success made for a phenomenal interview. 

In this episode, Mark joins me to talk about how keeping an open mind can lead to more opportunities, how he transitioned from corporate life to a more fruitful way of living on his own terms, and how by connecting the power of the mind to the power of the body, we can achieve far more than we may expect.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Opportunity comes from keeping an open mind. Those who never say no find that their paths are diverted in far more interesting ways when it comes to life.
The road to happiness and fulfilment often comes at the cost of making hard choices, but the legacies we achieve from doing so are life-changing.
By connecting the power of the body to the power of the mind, we can often reach higher, push harder, and achieve far more in life and in business than we would expect of ourselves.
We often take our knowledge base for granted, when in reality, if we look back across our experience so far, the skill sets and talents we have quietly acquired have empowered us in all kinds of incredible ways.

BEST MOMENTS

'Change has been my constant for the last thirty years’

'I was blessed with a huge amount of opportunity, and I guess that's because I learned never to say "no"'

'What is it that pushes you towards that next level?'

'You need to recognise the huge amount of skills that you've curated and nurtured over the years'
