In this episode

You’ll hear the Hendre talk about growing up in South Africa during and after apartheid, the power of forgiveness, how he coaches his clients, and how you can unlock a new life through your mindset and future planning.

Highlights:

  • Growing up in apartheid South Africa

  • Meeting Nelson Mandela in college: “What will be your contribution to the New South Africa”

  • “I was receiving all this resistance and overcoming that resistance, then creating an environment of unity”

  • Ask yourself 'what will the future look like?

  • “My relationship to the future determines how I am operating in the present.”

  • The supreme power of Forgiveness

  • How to create a future that has never existed before

  • Why the small incremental changes/adjustments yield exponential change

  • “Change the way you think, so you can change the way you act.”

Key Takeaway: 

What do you need to believe in order to become the person you want to be? Remember who you are. Make a commitment to honor the person who you are becoming.

“Change the way you think, so you can change the way you act.”

“My relationship to the future determines how I am operating in the present.” 

“People can’t hear what you’re saying, because they’re too busy listening to what they’re thinking.”

The best way to do that is to rate the podcast and leave a brief review on Apple Podcasts.
