On this episode of the World Game-Changers podcast, Paul is joined by returning guest Keith Amoss to talk about mentally turning the clock back, and finding childlike curiosity, energy and everything that comes with being a young person; whilst amalgamating it with the wisdom of a senior.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Old tyres with no tread left get mashed up and turned into material for children’s playparks. This is a fabulous concept; taking something that’s good and bad (like our childhood experiences), taking the good bits and see how you can use them now as an adult, what have you learned?
A while back I met some old school friends after many years, sharing jokes and stories on Facebook. We decided to meet up in Canada. One guy used to be the cool guy who everyone looked up to and idolised, another was into motorcycling and was a bit of greaser, and I was a bit middle-of-the-road listening to David Bowie and being abstract. When we got together we didn’t stop talking and were at ease in each other’s company and we managed to think of a few incidences from our school days and our perspectives were different, especially about each other. Perhaps we should ask people we’ve known over the years “what did you think/make of me?”, but that’s a very difficult question to ask people.
Relatively speaking, the type of person that you were as a younger person/teenager, whether that’s generous, kind, giving, supportive, friendly, it’s still there throughout your life. Where you see examples of that is when you see people with genuinely childlike qualities in the way they act as an adult. Humour is classic case. You can recycle yourself, but you need to know that things that you need to drop from your teenage years, the things that cause you pain, the things that you need to overcome, the self-work you need to do, and take the good bits.
How do we prevent ourselves from wallowing in the past? There is a risk that you look back and see them as the good old days when you were confident and you had everything going for you, you were happy and had so much to offer. It’s both quite complicated but also extremely simple to live in the moment. You also need to be spending about 20% of your time living in the future though, because you need to pay the bills, plan and book trips, etc. However, you’re doing all that stuff today.

BEST MOMENTS
‘We’re all tarins going through other peoples’ stations; we go through, we stop for a while, they see a little bit of us, and then we move on'.

‘It’s not what you say, it’s what you make someone feel that counts'.

‘The concept of the recycled teenager in essence is about recalling the past and having the memory, but without having particularly the negative emotion that was associated with things that went on'.

‘We make assumptions that people, when they’re older, have got it, they understand it, they know what’s going on, they don’t get nervous, they’ve got their act together. Talking to  my father who’s in his 80s you realise that even though you’ve been through a lot of life you still don’t understand how things work, you’re still uncertain, you can still have all those emotions of nervousness, uncertainty and fear'.

One thing that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – something he is totally aware of.  He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned the iconic ‘Think Different’ Apple commercial narrated by Steve Jobs in 1977:

“Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules.  You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do!”

His World Game-Changers podcast embraces a mutually-respectful conversational style, with guests that are deemed ‘Unsung Heroes’ – selfless, dedicated people that contribute to the betterment of the world, in whatever way they can…


“Remember: The World’s Changing…

How Will YOU Respond?”
