In today's episode we explore the importance of understanding one's unique path in life and how it is integral to personal growth and success. We delve into the concept of 'True North' - an individual's unique, constant version of self that remains unchanging throughout different life situations. Our existence on this planet centers around finding our 'True North'. This fixed point represents our identity, our talents, desires, core abilities, personality traits, and the sum of our life experiences that define our unique mapping in the world. An understanding of this 'True North' can significantly influence our automatic responses which, in turn, determines our growth and success. As the podcast highlights, a person without a well-defined 'True North' is like an unanchored kite, aimlessly fluttering without making any progress. This enlightening conversation also explores how one's identity encompasses various aspects like familiy roles, cultural heritage, worldview, abilities, interests and more. The ability to understand and establish this multifaceted identity aids in setting personal boundaries and helps discern key life issues, granting a unique sense of self in a world constantly pushing us to fit into preconceived molds. The podcast expertly demonstrates how values, influenced by one's worldview, greatly contribute to defining their 'True North'. Integrity shines through when one's values shape their actions and decisions when no one else is watching. For those who feel lost, the podcast offers introspection and exploration as a way to reset their internal compass. This introspective journey pushes beyond the usual, fostering growth and leading the path to defining one's 'True North'. Concluding with an excerpt from Mandla's book, "Conquer Your Mountains," this episode inspires listeners to find their personalized paths in life by understanding their unique identity and defining their success on their own terms. Life's most effective path aligns best when one's actions and decisions are in sync with their 'True North'.

In this vibrant episode of the Conquer Your Mountains podcast, hosted by Amanda De Witt, Senior Editor of the Luca Faith and Inspiration Imprint of Penguin Random House, we delve into an intriguing exploration of the power of creativity. Dr Mandla Moyo, an accountant turned science fiction writer, describes his inspiring journey from the world of numbers to the world of words. Mandla offers fresh insights on transitioning from a traditionally non-creative career into the much more uncharted territory of writing novels. Bringing a unique perspective to the table, Mandla discusses the importance of moving beyond the linear, box-like way of thinking that we often find in more analytical industries, such as accounting. They discuss how a professional shift can lead you to engage with the creative part of your brain more fully, revealing a unique perspective on creativity as an act akin to painting or creating a mental image that develops into a story. We then delve into the creation of Mandla’s captivating novel, "The Fallen Angel", a sci-fi book written following the release of his previous devotional work, "Conquer Your Mountains". Mandla shares the deeper intricacies of his creative process while explaining that writing science fiction demanded a more magnified version of creativity than his previous work. The pursuit of creativity often presents its own unique challenges. Mandla discusses the intricate balance between creativity and potential rejection. He also share their thoughts on vulnerability, emphasizing that the act of opening oneself up to critique is an inherent part of any creative endeavor. In his view, the world of TikTok serves as an apt metaphor for how creativity is perceived: an algorithm may decide what type of creative material will thrive, but that should never deter us from our creative explorations.

In this enlightening episode of the Conquer Your Mountains podcast, titled When Your Well Runs Dry we explore how to navigate and resolve resource shortages. We delve into understanding the implications of a "well running dry". From financial and emotional deficits, to creative aspects, burnouts often manifest as fatigue, unexplainable headaches, lack of joy, and a diminishing ability to engage in life fully. > Click here to access the podcast in a platform of your choice, such as Spotify and Apple Podcasts https://tr.ee/Kz8U7B2wiq  > The conversation unpacks the various dimensions of our personal "well". For some, the well contains faith, creativity, ability to adapt, and the joy from relationships with family and friends. Recognizing when your "well" starts to run dry, expressed through physical signs and feedback from loved ones, can help avert significant emotional and creative distress. Within this expansive dialogue, invaluable strategies are shared on how individuals can replenish their own personal "wells." It is suggested that addressing core shifts and implementing self-care routines are fundamental steps to recovery. This can range from pursuing activities that once brought joy, to reading books that expand the mind, and seeking support from a faith-based community. In divulging Mandla's personal experiences of overcoming dry spells in his work and personal life, it is emphasized that these experiences often trigger necessary transitions. Sometimes, a "dry well" may simply be an indication that it's time for a change. Maintaining balance in all aspects of life, and regularly "checking in" on your well can prevent it from running dry. Intricately tying together personal experiences, expert advice, and spiritual teachings, the episode delivers important reminders of the need for self-awareness, self-care, and God's provision when faced with burnout or resource depletion.

He suggests the best way to lessen these effects is by practicing restraint or limiting its use, especially during supposed rest periods.

Could a marathon mindset be the secret weapon you need in life? In this 20-minute episode, join Amanda and Mandla as they delve into what a marathon mindset truly entails and how it can propel you toward success. What is a Marathon Mindset? A marathon mindset stands in stark contrast to sprinting. It’s not about quick bursts of energy; instead, it embodies steadfast perseverance and unwavering patience for long-term outcomes. Imagine this: you can sprint through a 1-hour online course, but when it comes to earning a 4-year degree, you’re in it for the long haul. Similarly, a temporary job may be a sprint, but building a lasting career demands thousands of hours of investment. Running Through Adversity: When you run a marathon, your focus shifts. It’s no longer a question of if you’ll encounter pain; it’s a matter of when. The marathon mindset teaches you to be resilient—to weather the storms, endure discomfort, and keep moving forward. Rain, heat, or wind won’t deter you; the thrill of crossing the finish line becomes your driving force. The Long and Patient Road: Consider this - all valuable achievements lie along a winding, patient road—one so lengthy that you can’t even see over the horizon. Whether it’s a dream career, a lasting relationship, or personal growth, the marathon mindset reminds us that great things require time and unwavering commitment. Tune in to our podcast as we explore the power of the marathon mindset. 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ Click here to access the podcast in a platform of your choice, such as Spotify and Apple Podcasts https://tr.ee/Kz8U7B2wiq   

The "pursuit of happiness" was one of the unalienable rights of the United States Declaration of Independence in 1776, and a 2006 Will Smith movie was named from this eternal concept. In this thought-provoking podcast episode, Mandla and Amanda challenge the conventional wisdom that happiness is exclusively reserved for life’s grand finales. Inspired by the timeless concept of the “pursuit of happiness,” they explore an alternative perspective—one that invites us to savor joy in the everyday. 🌟 Key Takeaways: The Myth of Deferred Happiness: We often assume that happiness awaits us at the end of significant life stages—after retirement, marriage, or achieving certain milestones. Mandla questions this narrative: What if we don’t need to wait for the final chapter to experience joy? Creating Daily Moments of Bliss: Instead of an 80-year journey to happiness, Mandla proposes a different path. Amanda joins the conversation, emphasizing the importance of living energetically. Discover how small, intentional actions can infuse your days with brilliance—both at work and in your personal life. 🔥 Tune In: Ready to rewrite your own narrative?

Here’s a quick breakdown: The 480 Minutes Concept: Mandla introduces the idea that an average workday provides you with 480 minutes to do great things —excluding breaks and your commute time. Whether you’re a farmer, teacher, healthcare worker, or consultant, each minute matters. It could be planting a crop, leaving a lasting impression on a student, saving a life, or providing valuable advice. Embracing Opportunities: These 480 minutes are like an hourglass, refilling every day. You can either waste them, allowing them to wash away, or use them as building blocks for something great.

It's time to unleash your inner Bull—to reveal the hidden grace, the quiet determination, and the indomitable spirit within you. Third in line is the Drill— the unstoppable force breaking boundaries. As a Drill, you signify the one who creates opportunities where none existed before, leaving a trail of possibilities instead of destruction. Then we have Superheroes, and the cityscape is their canvas. With a strong moral compass and an unwavering commitment to protect, Superheroes embody ultimate sacrifice and heroism. They're the ones turning impossibilities into realities, painting a vibrant picture of change. Lastly, the Eagle—with its stretched wings high in the sky, effortlessly capturing the essence of vision and wisdom. Soaring at great heights, it represents farsightedness, enabling you to see beyond the ordinary and envision futures yet to be chartered. As you listen to Mandla's description of each shape, ask yourself, are you a General, a Bull, a Drill, a Superhero, or an Eagle? Let's use these enigmatic figures to catalyze unprecedented changes, and render an existence where change becomes a currency and wonder — the ultimate reward. >>> Click here to access the podcast in a platform of your choice, such as Spotify and Apple Podcasts  https://tr.ee/Kz8U7B2wi Book purchases available on: https://www.conquermountains.com/conquer-your-mountains/ https://www.conquermountains.com/the-fallen-angel/  

Welcome to the 20th episode of the Conquer Your Mountains podcast titled: "What Does It Mean to Be a Joseph or a Daniel in the World of Business?"      Today, we delve into the insightful stories of Joseph and Daniel from theological references and explore their applicable lessons in modern-day business leadership. Your host, Mandla Moyo, an inspirational and science fiction author, offers fascinating anecdotes touching on visionary leadership, strategic management, resilient stewardship, and effective problem-solving.     Initiating the discussion with Joseph's story, we define a 'Joseph anointing' in business: A mantle for provision, sustenance, and strategic business administration, even amidst challenging seasons. Moyo extrapolates from Joseph's biblical journey—from unfavored sibling to resourceful administrator in Pharaoh's kingdom—highlighting his unfaltering integrity and wise stewardship that saved many lives during famine. In the context of this narrative, Moyo poses critical questions on the role of Joseph-like figures in a struggling businesses that are going through "famine", emphasizing the importance of solution providers and nourishment suppliers.   Transitioning to Daniel's story, we delve into his unique encounter with suppression, servitude, and forced acclimatization in foreign lands. Despite facing harsh challenges, his path would enlighten business leaders dealing with cultural differences, internal hostilities, and political correctness. Daniel's interpretation of king's visions and his ability to stand firm in adverse circumstances draws a lot of parallels with leaders whose wisdom and discernment are pivotal to their organization's success. Moreover, Daniel's multi-cultural social integration, despite brutal upheavals, offers lessons on inclusivity and adaptability in today's diverse business environment.   Toward the end of the episode, Moyo addresses leaders who feel incapable of integrating Joseph or Daniel's attributes into their leadership. His comforting words and valuable insights strive to remind us that becoming a resilient and adaptive leader requires patience, persistence, and overcoming countless trials. Moyo concludes by prompting listeners to contemplate their leadership personas and embrace both archetypes' values for achieving holistic business success.     Click here to access the podcast in a platform of your choice, such as Spotify and Apple Podcasts  https://tr.ee/Kz8U7B2wiq   Book purchases available on:   https://www.conquermountains.com/conquer-your-mountains/   https://www.conquermountains.com/the-fallen-angel/
