Self Awareness Leads To Self Improvement - with James Burtt

On a Mission Podcast

This week, Ellie is joined by audio entrepreneur and branding strategist, performance coach and iTunes Top 50 podcaster, James Burtt.

James talks about his fascinating journey through a musical career and into business, why honesty matters when it comes to putting your message out into the world, the wisdom he's found in the most unlikely places, and why we should always be ready when opportunity arrives.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Many people document their wins, but life isn't always about constant victories. Some days you are faced with challenges, and talking about these can prove invaluable to others.
• Opportunities arise from the most unlikely of places at times. We must never remain closed off to chances to do things differently as the journey can lead to some incredible new places.
• In business and life, it can be challenging when our partners do not share or understand our visions and goals, as it can produce a friction.
• When we find ourselves in low places, it is not necessary to have all the answers. All we need to do is make sure we're putting one foot in front of the other and moving forward in some small way.

BEST MOMENTS

'What I'm committed to doing is finding what's in it for someone else'

'The first step towards self-improvement is being self-aware'

'It's better to know than to not know'

'Inner grit is a refusal inside you to give up and accept that that is your reality'
