Philanthropist and inspirational mentor Scott Schilling joins Pete today to impart his pearls of wisdom onto us and talk through his journey to success. Together they discuss the importance of sharing your struggles with others, how it can take a major, life changing event to make us realise the fragility of life and how you will only be willing to learn, when you are ready.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• There are many people out there who believe they are the only ones facing hardships and roadblocks in their life, by hearing your story they are able to understand that they are not alone. Sharing the challenges you have faced in your life with others, gives people the courage move past their own challenges.

• You don’t get paid by the hour, you get paid by the value you add to the hour. When you can add value to other people, it is amazing what can happen. As you become more mature, the information you have picked up when facing challenging scenarios can serve others as lessons.

• We are all far more fragile than we tend to think, but we are all far more powerful than we think to. Unfortunately sometimes it takes a major incident to make you realise that you are not bulletproof and you are not immune to things. If you truly want to live out your purpose and you want to do the things you want to do, you may need to examine your life and take different actions.

• People think that we are all only given two immediate actions, and that is fight or flight, but we have actually been given three emotions, fight flight and freeze. Freeze is actually the most devastating because freeze basically says ‘I am going to stay put”. Without action there is no ability to gain feedback, and grow.

• When the student is ready, the teacher appears. There will be a time when somebody will impart some wisdom and present a potential answer to a question of yours, if you are ready, you will hear it. It takes a critical mass within you to make things happen, you have to get to that point where you say ‘I am sick and tired, of being sick and tired’ and do something different.

• Everybody is the most amazing person that they can be. If you want to be more amazing, go and do it. If you want help in it, you can get help, there is a lot of help available. There are people sitting there who would love to help you achieve your goals. Have the courage to take the first step.

BEST MOMENTS

“A certain amount of ego is fine but when you rely totally on ego it is a person putting themselves up and above and over other people, and the last time I checked, you and I were both created equally.”

“Each and everyone of us could say that we could make better choices on a daily basis.”

“Most of the time when we take actions, it is actually the wrong actions, the only way to know that, is to take the wrong action.”

“You can have everything in life that you want when you help other people get what they want.”

“If I can do it anybody can do it.”

“If you don’t have the fire in the belly, that's where the problem lies.”
