We humans all think differently, that is a given, and is human nature. Our perception of reality is an accumulation of our life experiences and thoughts.
Therefore it is no surprise to anyone that I believe that it takes a different mindset to live a simpler lifestyle. A simple living mindset!
Listen to the Episode Below (00:29:36)
During this episode I take you on a journey. My own personal journey of how my mindset shifted due to different events, leading up to where I am now. That is a content and happy man, truly living life simply and honestly.
As I ramble on I cover topics such as;
- Consumer culture
- The Rat Race
- The spark
- My Dichotomy and feeling out of balance
- Awareness of the bigger picture
- Enjoying the little things
- People vs Possessions
- Less stuff
- Needs vs Wants and the power of advertising
- Thinking deeper, and
- Debt reduction due to behaviour change.
A pretty full and well-rounded show covering what I think is the simple living mindset.
Let me know what you think of the show via comment. I would love your honest opinion.

Oh Gavin, our normal Sat am “In Bed With Gav” session took about an hour this morning. Rob kept pausing to discuss what you were saying and to make it relevant to us. I think its because we are all around the same age and he respects your intellect that he is willing to listen (you are after all an IT man).
Great podcast Gav.
Cheers Lynda, always appreciate the feedback. Maybe I should start another podcast with that title. Sounds very John and Yoko!
